L20 #3 trulpen (X) vs aequitas-et-veritas (A) PtV

[trulpen]

Only scramble to z94.

[trulpen]

@trulpen said in L20 #3 trulpen (X) vs aequitas-et-veritas (A) PtV:

I don’t agree with the attack on z99.

There is no practical way any carriers will make it to pick up the fig and tac, so they’re sent on a suicide mission.

[aequitas-et-veritas]

@trulpen correct. Triple would have also allowed this attack without my DD beeing a possible Clear Clerk, so my “CV” would have a “possible” “landingspot”.
But like you allready said, it is within the rules like the sneaky Karl.

[aequitas-et-veritas]

@trulpen nett gain 5x7=35 IPC on the bottom of the Adria vs 20 IPC’s spended through Warbonds (Captain America did a great job!), a plus of 15 for Allies.

[trulpen]

C’est la vie.

Think it’s a little different.

Trannies cost 6 here, so 30 lost for Axis.

US sacrificed a des, fig and tac, which is 28.

+2 for Allies. Still a plus.

But what mainly sucked for me was the loss of tempo.
