I’ve never seen 97 go like this, that is for sure.

UK sub and bomber
vs
Italian transport and fighter

Rolling one at a time to make sure they’re not confusing.

Somehow the UK bomber gets an attack of 4 against an Italian fighter in the air lol
Do the Axis take down every single UK unit but the sub?

A complete wipeout except for 1 sub that missed all battle, but gets the goodies at the end. Well, now you have a decision to make on the destroyer.

What a battle, UK noncom coming a bit later. Gutsy scramble, kind of pays off? Open to interpretation.

[gamerman01]

I’ve never seen the dice result post before the formula. Unfortunate.

[gamerman01]

I’m going to roll MARTI dice in game for zone 97 and edit to the forum results. Game on!
