[farmboy]

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris it has been but depends on your version (I’m using one of the unreleased versions). But also even in play by forum you can save a game and post it. And it probably conserves the game details when I open it so I don’t need to plug them back in.

And I agree about the BB. For me though if I don’t scramble I have to sink the BB and a sub (or two)and likely lose a destroyer (and/or maybe a fig in the process) or I scramble and likely destroy the bb and may take a few german air down. Obviously its a risk if the dice goes sideways but I think the opportunity to take out some german air, even at a loss, can be worth it. Only getting the 1 in 110 was disappointing but I probably saved some TUV on UK1 because of it, and of course 111 makes up for it. So not the outcome I would have hoped for, but not a disaster either.

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris reposted with an ncm adjustment to the UK destroyer in the pacific side.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

I think I have to gamble on this attack. You are one plane short of what you should have had for this defense. Scramble?

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris I almost never have to deal with an attack on S france in round 1 so I was forgetting that the figs could join in. Will have to think about this for a few min

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

I love S france for that reason. Opens up so much fun for Italy and Germany.

[farmboy]

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris no scramble

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

realized I should take Cyprus before my transport is sunk. Does that change your decision?

[farmboy]

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris nope

[farmboy]

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris I usually like to follow along with the dice, but the dice roller seems particularly slow again. I’m still waiting on most of the Germany turn dice.

Scary first round for italy as almost everything missed. Ended up being a completely average battle.

I probably would have Sea Lioned if you had scrambled and lost that battle. Was way too tempting.

[farmboy]

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris Just realized you used my earlier UK post. I reposted a few minutes after moving the UK destroyer off Malaya back to India. Is it alright for me to re edit. Its fine if it is too late.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

no problem with that edit.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

Obviously my fault not taking the latest save. I always accept edits that were made before I did my turn.

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris no problem. It wasn’t a major edit and it is easy for these things to get missed.
