@Booper
Before I continue with the Russians, did you see this NC edit request from
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/post/1728887 ?

To be clear, if the edit would have influenced your considerations during the Italian or German turn, I’ll happily continue without the edit.

[Booper]

@koala

I’m generally very tolerant of edits, but my own standard is once the other player makes their move, the turn is locked in at that point.

My preference would be to continue without the edit, as it can become a slippery slope on where to draw the line otherwise. Does that sound reasonable?

Scramble or Kamikaze? OOL would also be nice

I hope you don’t think I want to throw away the game. But I feel there is a coin flip chance that this works out to my advantage. And I thought for way too long if I take the chance or not, ha. I gladly share my reasoning at the end of the game if you like.

No scramble, let’s try 2 kamikazes total, 1 each on 2 different destroyers.

It’s going to come down to the AA rolls! I don’t think I can give OOL until I see how the AA and first round goes.

Yes, no matter the outcome, would enjoy a de-brief of your thoughts of the game after.
