I’m keeping the battleship to keep a counterattack possibility alive

[Stucifer]

Your counter-fire gets 5 hits this time, I’m considering my options…

[gamerman01]

It’s always interesting when one scores more hits in the 2nd round than the first. Sometimes a lot more

[gamerman01]

It’s amazing how missing one tiny thing could cost you a game of G40, I love it

I can’t figure it out, seems MARTI sometimes puts them in order, other times not.

[Stucifer]

Lots of excitement for sure. I got lucky with only one hit back to finish the job. Will consider China and UK soon and post those too!

[gamerman01]

Not in a hurry, dealing with flying badger and developing my unstoppable barbarossa
Big airstrike of UK fleet in 97, he had perfect rolls but the Germans have all 12 starting planes

[gamerman01]

What’s great is, it seems a Jap counterattack on 37 is coming, so the TUVs will go down further

[gamerman01]

I just have to be happy no tech

YET

[Stucifer]

Yeah, about 50/50 chance for my USA to have Tech at 4 rolls. Got about a 40% chance next turn if I don’t buy tokens to get one. So it’ll come soon… ;)

The dice don’t owe nobody nothing!

You’ll have two convoy zone rolls, I forgot to edit the ownership of Celebes and redid from end of NCM. But I corrected to the first roll you got (3 damage instead of 2).

[gamerman01]

Got it, looks good, thanks

I thought you were going to save the carrier

This isn’t over

[Stucifer]

@gamerman01 Sorry, I forgot to mention I skipped the scramble in 97? To defend one of the transports

I thought you were going to save the carrier
If I had more foresight I would have remembered I had an ANZAC fighter to land on it. C’est la vie

[gamerman01]

I noticed that, and I almost woulda done it but I do want that fighter

Thank you

[gamerman01]

Might be better off not throwing in all the marbles to 37. So like you said.

[gamerman01]

It looks like I’m going to keep the fast and loose play coming. I can’t believe how fast Japan got hammered, but I won’t say anything more for now
