Couple decisions for you boys -
Scramble fighter from India?
Scramble fighter from 34 to 35?
Thanks

[DrakeMortis]

@gamerman01 scramble fighter to sea zone 40 from E India, no scramble sea zone 35. We take max defense for casualties in sea zone 34.

[gamerman01]

OK, that’s very helpful, thanks.

[DrakeMortis]

@gamerman01 I guess we may need order of loss for battle in sea zone 34, depending on hits opening round.

[gamerman01]

Absolutely! If I would have rolled poorly, I would have waited, but I feel better now that you’ve said that. I think I have a few minutes here maybe that I could roll now…

[gamerman01]

OK, India has to be first because amphibious assaults have to be rolled before all other combat, so here we go

[gamerman01]

OK, I forgot since I had to wait, that I was going to lose a fighter over India. Unbelievably I didn’t, so I’m going to lose a fighter and bring back an infantry I took off, before rolling 34/35

OK, I got an unusual roll in 34, so I will stop to wait for your casualty choice, thanks and sorry. My first game back in years, we’re in round 10 and I’ve had pretty rough luck the whole way through. Apparently now it’s making up for that, at your expense.

[DrakeMortis]

@gamerman01 Nice roll. Lose everything but the battleship and a cruiser

[gamerman01]

Thank you, and excellent choice. Maybe you will have a blistering defense, let’s see.

[gamerman01]

You got an above average roll, which is actually kind of a relief. I was starting to feel bad.

[DrakeMortis]

@gamerman01 fingers crossed! It also seems as though a Marine was on a cruiser, probably won’t matter in a moment though lol.

[gamerman01]

Triple A says you have a marine on each cruiser - I checked before attacking lol

[gamerman01]

Well, get some luck against us again, soon, OK? because that is sick.

[DrakeMortis]

@gamerman01 it’s all good, nice shooting.
