15L G40 Cyanight (Axis) vs alexgreat (Allies +21)

[lexgreat]

oh dear, what a superlucky roll.

Pls select 8 hits, 2 of which can only be sea units.

[cyanight]

Why are you posting rolls on the forum?

[cyanight]

Lose everything but the DAM - BB CV and 2 fighters

Just run my rolls through the dice server. I would rather not roll on this forum

[lexgreat]

because tripleA rolled for the two subs already and would now ask me for a casualty choice, which you dont have to give. so I rolled all attacks here and will do so with the reminder of the battle, and then edit.

Is there something that makes this problematic?

[lexgreat]

oh ok, will refrain from doing so in the future.

[lexgreat]

Sorry if I have to ask again:

8 hits in total, you have 2 carriers, one damaged BB, one cruiser, one destroyer, 3 fighter and a tac (11 hit points)

I cannot keep the damaged BB, a carrier and 2 fighters. Only three hit points can stand. Or I just understood the wrong way.
