L16 G40 Simon (Allies +21) vs ABH (Axis)
-
Scramble SZ112?
-
Sure, let’s get lucky!
-
Pretty happy with that decision. The fleet was dead anyway. Took down some of the Luftwaffe as well as the Kriegsmarine.
-
Battle calc gave me a decent chance of winning that battle with the scramble. Was worth the gamble because I didn’t need those fighters much anyway.

3 hits first round.
Not a good attack since the landing didn’t succeed, but oh well.

Tip two carriers and lose the destroyer.
Round 2 and beyond if you keep fighting:
cruiser,
carrier *2
cruiser,
tac,
fighter *3,

Didn’t continue, but had to kill Triple-A, so you might get two sets of dice. I’ll edit back to be the same as the first result.

No problem, crashes happen. I have never had another player cheat with his dice rolls.

Forgot to attack Algeria. I’ve edited. Presume it’s ok.

I have to try a few things in this game because I’m well behind.

It is tough to recover after losing Egypt early.

I thought about conceding in the first turn, but decided to play it out.
