I would add that you can consider the sub rules as an exploitable loophole, but I would say they refect the very real problems subs caused in naval battles. One unaccounted sub could cause massive disruption to a naval force (hello HMS Ark Royal)
How will we calculate battles without a calculator?

I agree - make an educated guess and start rolling the dice….
If you need to have that kind of certainty when playing a game like this I highly suggest inducing a small quantity of alchohol (not too much now…a little bit goes along way when you are only a 1/2" tall and made of plastic…) That should help nicely and will bring a fresh perspective to the game! -
You can always run them LL or no luck in your head……but don’t let anyone ask for a reroll :-D

I love it. Decisions without any calculators:
Play by email will be a little closer to a live game again. -
I have a AA50 calc that should work.

roll some dice……

Hehehe, good point Maxo. And I am probably just thinking about using the calc for naval battles mostly, although the bigger land battles might be worth it as well. Most of the time, I attack with larger numbers and plenty of men, which means (usually) I win the battle without having to resort to number crunching.

Calculators? We don’t need no stinking calculators! :-D

You mean to tell me we don’t know their kind of scum around here? What if we want to disintegrate some plastic pieces? :-P :-D

what’s a calculator? :?

I think he means an i-phone app.
