16L G40 BM 2.0 Mr.Green vs Koala (allies)

[Mistergreen]

Those pilots may need a rest, they seem a little on the fritz after being uptaged by the aa crew. Are you sure you want to scramble?  :-D

On a more serious note, if the battle turn out badly for the Japanese do you prefer to save bb or fig and of what nationality?

Yes scramble everything please.

I haven’t done the math yet, but I think this battle could take 2+ rounds. And to specify an OOL in a naval battle is not so easy for me (have a little bit of a problem to predict all implications). Would you mind in rolling the battle in the forum?

So I can respond after every round on the casualties.

I’m online for at least another 30 minutes, so we could finish it today in the evening (23:34 is right now in my timezone).

regards  :-)

PS: tutorial on forum dice is here (used it myself for the first time today, in my other game)

[Mistergreen]

Do you mind if I just roll it in TripleA and post each round for you to choose instead?

[koala]

yeah no problem either :)

[koala]

so simply tell me how many hits you’ve made.

I have a gamefile open right now where I see our fleets

[Mistergreen]

13 hits.  :-)

[Mistergreen]

My guess is 5 tippable ships, 4 ss, 4 dd…  :-)

[koala]

okay, that hurt …  :cry:

Was just going to tell you if I get lucky and you have <10 hits first round, there might be a chance for me… 8% winning tells me the battle calculator.  :-D

On topic:

4 subs; tip 3 carriers; tip UK BB; tip US BB; 4 US DDs

[koala]

@Mistergreen:

My guess is 5 tippable ships, 4 ss, 4 dd…  :-)

spot-on

[Mistergreen]

13 hits for you as well so still in the race.  :-)
To bad I only lost 2 power.  :evil:
12 more hitsfor me rd2!  :-)

darn I should have grabed that pesky northern territory!

okay, simply take the weak
remove 3 carriers; 2 cruiser; tac, UK BB; US BB; 2 anzac figher; 2 US fighter

So remaining should be 3 US fighters, 1 Anzac fighter right?

The anzac fighter goes last :)

[Mistergreen]

Rd4 Japan wins with 2 cc, 2 bb(d), 3 tac, 2 fig, bmb remaining. Time to ncm.  :-)

[Mistergreen]

Correction rd3 win but no changes otherwise…  :roll:

An easy breakfast for the australian women and kids on the fiji-islands  :mrgreen:

[Mistergreen]

Nevermind it was rd4.  :roll:
Time to stop writing about unconscionable things and ncm.

Take your time. I don’t know, if I can make the whole US->Uk turns today, anyway.

Fiji. Hmm what is that smudge over at Fiji. Look more like a aircraft carrier than a smudge. Guess my proud fleet won’t live to tell the tale after all. Mind if I edit my last round losses to keep a few more aircrafts instead?  :roll:

[Mistergreen]

Ony would think it wouldn’t be to hard to overlook units that are so close. Guess I got a little tunnel vision on sz54 and only double checked the obvious spot; Hawaii. Anyway if you don’t mind:
Two less cc afloat. Another fig & tac lands safetly in that pesky ‘unimportant’ northern territory.  :-)

no problem. Obviously, that’s the common triplea problem. In a table top game, you would have certainly noticed the carrier there :)

I have no problem with your edit, but it seems, that you defraud yourself of 1 hitpoint in your last round. Because you would have had one tac more in your last round with the new casualty choice. (However I’m not entirely sure if it would be paired)

But anyway, I don’t think this matters for the rest of the game :roll:
