Need Scramble/Kamikaze orders in z6

Since we haven’t rolled yet, would you guys mind terribly if I changed one of my combat moves?  I’d like to remove the 1 ftr, 1 tac from the z6 attack.

Make your final changes, then I’ll declare Kami’s.  Once declared no changes, agreed?

OK.  The only change is in z6:

z6
7 cv, 9 dd, 2 ca, 2 bb, 1 trn, 1 trn (2 inf) z19
remove 1 ftr, 1 tac wus
add 1 ss z21

all other battles are as originally written

Changes are final, so I’m just waiting for scramble/kami orders.  :-D

Launch Kami strike against the CV’s 1 Kami each.

@Emperor:

Launch Kami strike against the CV’s 1 Kami each.

6 Kami’s 1 against each CV.

I’m not sure if, technically, you have to declare scramble before kami’s are resolved, but I don’t think it will make much of a difference here.

Here it goes…

6 kamikaze attacks, 1 on each of 6 attacking cv’s

Rolls: 6@2; Total Hits: 46@2: (5, 1, 1, 2, 1, 3)

Crikey.  4 cv’s damaged.  I will assume that there is no scramble.  I will re-roll, if you do decide to scramble.

Unfortunately, Moulinex is swamped with work and won’t be able to post for a while.  He has authorized me to take his next few turns, if necessary.  I will do UK/ANZAC16 and, hopefully, he’ll be back for turn17.  I figure that this is OK with you guys?
