I understand. You can re-do your move. For my OOL, please take the carrier first, then the destroyers, then the Cruisers, and lastly the air. Surviving fighters land on Cyprus.

OK I have looked at the die roll and the only thing you are missing is your sub

You got 4 hits , and I got 6 hits

You had both your cruisers, just not the sub. So what I would like you to do, since evidently you didn’t save the move mid-battle is to reconstruct the battle, and get the MARTI die roll server to generate a roll for the sub. You can do that by on your reconstructed move have the sub attack my destroyer in SZ96. Also, since the sub is lost on the first round of 6 hits, use edit mode to reduce the fleets to what they should be after the first round, and do battle (or retreat) with the remaining forces. You will have 1 damaged BB, 1 fighter and one bomber. I will have 3 cruisers, one destroyer, and 2 fighters. If your sub gets a hit, then kill an extra destroyer.

Where do you save the game to? Evidently not on the forum…

All right, I have looked closer at the die rolls from the MARTI server, and you had ALL of your fleet in the battle, just as you intended. Your sub missed, and you got 4 hits with the rest of your forces. The defending British got 6 hits. That is the first round, and it stands. For the second round you will have 1 damaged BB, 1 fighter and one bomber. I will have 3 cruisers, one destroyer, and 2 fighters. If you choose to lose your BB, and save your fighter, that’s fine. You can withdraw, or continue the battle with round 2.

You can see from the game summary that you had 2 cruisers participate in the battle, and at the beginning of your turn (end of UK turn) there were only 2 cruisers in SZ97, so I do not know where that cruiser came from that is now in SZ 97.

OK, it appears that everything is in order, and you sank your battleship and saved the cruiser, and retreated from the battle. That is why your cruiser is sitting in SZ97, because it retreated.

So now you can finish your non-combat move, place your builds and post your finished move.

Yes, you may lose the cruiser and add a fighter.

The game defaults to losing a fighter instead of the cruiser because of the IPC value of 12 vs 10, I suppose.  But you can choose what you lose.

Yes, just click on the “territory” tab in the upper right corner. Then as you move the mouse pointer around, you can see numbers and nationality. You can also Ctrl-B when hovering and you can see the battle calculator, with the units already filled in, which is very nice. You can do that right before finish your combat move to see what your odds are.
