Combat Hit Differential Summary :
both posts should be same - do you scramble off Rome this time?
LOL “this time”, that’s funny
This is why I wanted the German fighter here and then I decided to have it suicide at Iraq. Another sad tale.
So it’s a tough one.
Subs dive, fighters stay on Rome. The destroyer fights alone
You did realize the German bomber on

I would have brought second dd - but not without your hint!!
LOL I didn’t realize I didn’t finish typing. I really didn’t want to surprise you that way.
You’re playing so many games
Change your placement how you want - that’s why I said something
I also have a bomber on Jehol that can reach 25
I do want to remind you, especially because I had made a change in my German NCM with them
very kind! let me reconsider indeed - but I am totally fine with leaving as is, too. Only because I didn’t roll dice I wanna at least take second look … enjoy your meal meanwhile ;)

“placement” does include movement in this case?

Oh yes that’s what I meant. Play it like you knew the 2 bombers were there the whole time

It’s not too bad for you anyway - Hawaii is surrounded by little green men but please do how you like, it’s what I expected
at the moment I am hesitating at accepting your generous favor - so I guess that I should go to bed now and redo tomorrow from US turn on . Glad that no combat had occurred! A pleasure to play this game with you
I’m really happy you appreciate,
Take your time, I sure do
I don’t feel it’s generous, given all circumstances I want you to know what’s there, you certainly would face to face, 1 vs 1
And It’s not a bad move at all what you did, Caro transport can reach Hawaii and it’s very truck to navigate anyway. But still, make sure you get the move you want
Tricky. On a phone.

Combat Hit Differential Summary :
not that many changes in the end … but to be admitted that I didn’t move US dd from sz81 now - might also affect your scramble decision off Rome though I doubt it
Oh wow, that is a dramatic change, which is fine
Yes, US destroyer affects the decision, but you’re right I still won’t scramble, and subs will submerge
