Sub chickens out, and so do fighters
Royal navy is screwed, happy hunting
Only scramble to z94.
@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.
@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.
@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.
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.
@trulpen oh you are right.
6 instead of seven.
