Sorry if I hurt your feelings with my feedback about your ranking system.

I wasn’t trying to fingerpaint on your Picasso.

It’s better and more work than anything I’d do.

The aircraft are on the fewest american carriers possible.

I am having a hard time figuring out how to get Anzac to the front? Any pointers?

I am reading and comprehending it.

I had pure motives at the time. I don’t think I did anything wrong. I was a giant favorite to kill both air units in like the first round. I got diced.

As I said it seems unfair to use hindsight now. I can see your point but I made all my decisions using common sense.

I think we should re-roll it here from your decision point, to be sure you’d really lose the mech instead of the bomber.

I wouldn’t have personally without knowledge of the defense roll, knowing a second round of attack is coming. But you say you would have.

I forgot we were having this issue, been working too much.

I don’t understand your argument. I assumed I would do the follow up attack rd 2 as I was a huge favorite so I did std max defense. Then you got the unexpected 2 def hits. So I chose to retreat. I was not intending to retreat when I chose your bomber. You want me to leave your bombers to the end of battles where you are a big underdog?

I mean it was a 99% percent battle I was doing on autopilot that got diced. You want me to give you causality choices at every little battle? This game is slow enough as it is.

I mean isn’t it unfair with knowledge of the retreat to then choose your casuality now with perfect hindsight?

If you want to go back to the point of the attack to choose your casualty and re-roll from there that is fine with me.

Jeff28

Sorry bad week for me at work. I will probably be off line until the weekend after this move.

Thanks for your patience,

How would you have known you’d get those def hits? You were only supposed to get one. Of course you’d choose max def for the second round of my attack with Italy?

I may have used the kamis, not sure. If I didn’t shoot one at each boat.
