I certainly won’t be challenging that no scramble decision with your 6 hits round 1 in SZ97.

@BSD:

Um, so you get two hits opening round and you choose to kill my dd and my fighter?  I would have injured the carrier and killed the fighter, leaving me with two units rolling on 2’s instead of 1.

Good point. TripleA (incorrectly) rolls the subs separately from the other units, and the sub hit. So I assumed you couldn’t dent the CV since that would leave the fighter stranded if I missed with the other units.

I can’t in good conscience say that I would have retreated from that battle after the first round. Let’s see if the DD hit in the second round:
Rolls: 1@2; Total Hits: 01@2: (5)

Third round:
Rolls: 1@2; Total Hits: 01@2: (5)

Fourth round attacks:
Rolls: 2@3; Total Hits: 12@3: (3, 6)

defRolls: 1@2; Total Hits: 11@2: (1)

Ok, so you can remove a fighter.
