@OwenToo said in OwenToo (Axis) vs Simon33 (Allies) PTV:

Carrier (sink it), sub, damage BB are the first 4… for subsequent rounds: TAC, CA, CA, Fighter, BB

You didn’t say DD and I only hit once in the second round so I assumed that would go there.

Went pretty disagreeably for me, not least because it seems I will have to let the TT escape. Didn’t notice that I didn’t go through SZ38 to get there. Trust you will allow that edit.

Gross miscalculation there. Remember calculating 49% of you taking Egypt.

Oh poo. I think I was planning on putting UK fighters there.

I’ll save the cruiser.
