I saw all but one hit in the first round. I would rather keep the sub alive. Your planes can’t hit it and it can hit both the TT and CV.

[StuckTojo]

No problem.

[StuckTojo]

So what now?

[simon33]

@StuckTojo:

So what now?

Do you still lose the CV?

Once you know what you want to lose, we can roll the rest of the battle here. Use:

“:“dice 1d6”:”

Without the double quotes to roll one dice. Obviously, 2d6 for 2 dice.

[StuckTojo]

Ok, I’ll still use the CV (instead of a plane, right?) even if it means you may end up with a sub that I can’t hit.

Can you do the dice rolling?  I honestly have no idea how to do it?

I assumed you’d want to keep your planes in sz 37, but feel free to change the ool if I’m wrong.

[simon33]

I reckon I’ll keep the damaged CV and a fighter. I assume you don’t want to continue the battle.

I took it upon myself to assume no intercept in the UK. Let me know if you want to do it, you only had one fighter on two bombers, and we can roll it here.
