L24 BM Stucifer (X) vs Surfer (L+20)

    @Stucifer Re; Battlestar Galatica…nope. I was a fan when I was a kid, but I never found time to watch the reboot. Maybe because I was newly married then and had other things on my mind. Perhaps it’s time to go back and binge watch.

    What to do you want to do in W. Germany? Scramble to defend Denmark? or Intercept bomb run.

  • 2024 2023

    @surfer I recommend it! I’d watch the first episode of the TV series, then the miniseries, then go back to the TV series (can watch the first episode again or go to episode 2). I think I watched the first two seasons before I saw the miniseries. It’s definitely one of the best sci-fi shows, right up there with The Expanse, not sure which one wins to be honest!

    Well, 70-30 battle went my way. I went for it since the payoff was so large.

    I assumed you would scramble to defend Germany, but it didn’t go the Axis way.

    You could say you wouldn’t scramble and save the 1 ftr, but we’d have to determine how many hits were caused by the ftr over 3 rounds of fighting (at least 1 since last round had all hits).

    @Stucifer Actually reviewing the dice rolls, I may have been too quick to just take the default units out for max defense. On the first round of combat, I scored just enough hits to remove 1 CVs, all subs and DDs. I didn’t realize I still had subs left, so my second round attacks had the subs score surprise attacks … 5 hits, which eliminated the remaining surface fleet. That is not optimal.

    You should have lost a second CV in the first round to keep 1 DD to prevent the surprise attacks.

    In the second round, I would have taken out the remaining fleet with the sub hits, but you would have had 1 CV, 1DD, 1 CA, + 1 BB that would have at least had a chance to hit back at the subs before they went down…it won’t change the outcome of the battle but I’ll have fewer subs. I’ll roll for the hits here.

    Yeah I think I should have not intercepted as even with an intercept I couldn’t score enough hits to get the tactical. Something my brain missed. Then I have a 16% chance to shoot down the bomber for free and a 33% you do 1-2 damage as you did, so my fleet would still be safe.

    Cest la vie, this has been a fantastic game and I’m kind of glad it’s over. 😂 but I look forward to playing you again if you ever decide to try out PTV!

    @Stucifer Thanks! GG. Actually I have been interested in trying PTV again. I’ve played 3 games when it first came out. I’m down to give it a go. Or are you busy with the playoff games? In which case we can play later.

    @surfer Yeah I’m a little busy now but should have time after my playoff game.
