sorry, made another edit, just landed planes differently…I was so fuming after the bomber disaster that I rushed through NCM…thanks

time will tell, Germany/Italy could be in trouble soon thanks to losing all that defense/attacking power in the planes, but my Japan is doing pretty well right now…

either way, when one of us has to concede, I’m always up for playing another, practice makes perfect (plus, they won’t keep counting in League until you play X games…for example, if you won 10 in a row against me, you would probably only get credit for 2-3 until you played a lot more games…it’s to encourage diversity of opponents…there is some set of rules around it if you look at the League Results file)…so basically, we could keep playing each other in games that will EVENTUALLY count, but for a while they would just be us practicing and working on things

also, you may have noticed I take bad dice personally haha, but I’m only being a baby and venting on the board, I’m not actually mad at anybody (except whoever made the dice server, haha)

cruiser first, then tactical, then both battleships, then lose one fighter, then a carrier (both hits), then two fighters, then a carrier (both hits), then do last carrier (both hits) and then final two fighters…hopefully I can save some planes and a carrier haha…

so basically make sure there is always a carrier alive if there are two planes to still land on it, until I end up with only one carrier and two planes left…then go max defense
