Pretty bad start for the Allies. But that is what happens with dice.
Please adjust any hit casualties as I just took the default.
@ozymandiac lose the Italian cruiser and one fighter
@the_good_captain You scored 1 hit, I assigned it to a fighter.
I persist, and score 1 hit. How would you assign it?
(There are 2 fighters + 1 bomber remaining, against 1 damaged battleship + 1 fighter)
@ozymandiac I’ll lose the Japanese fighter

By the way: I was having trouble seeing the game’s history. I usually look at the turns before I take mine, but I kept getting errors about “merging values Italians and Italians”. Does this happen to anybody else as well?
@ozymandiac got back from a tradeshow in Vegas and so I’ll do my turn today but now I feel compelled to ask a question that I feel you should not answer until the end of our game.
One of the more interesting themes I notice while playing this group (not sure if its one or all of you, I don’t really distinguish) is the willingness to take risks, sometimes rather large risks. I really like this because its an opportunity to really stress test the game engine but in that last battle, there was a 22% change of win albeit with a smallish -2 TUV swing BUT with at least two and probably three defending units remaining not including transports. Most folks I play wouldn’t take that. It worked out really well for the allies but that’s not relevant to this:
Did you take that because you felt you had to? Or otherwise, what was the thought process behind that move? I have about three educated guesses as to the answer.
I honestly think this question might be better left UNanswered until we conclude the game but I wanted to get this down now before I forgot my thoughts at this moment.
EDIT: the battle sat at 27% chance of this outcome
@the_good_captain
To answer at least 1 part of the question, I think all 3 of us could be considered quite “aggressive” players, although when we play amongst us there are some minor differences in risks we accept or avoid. I think it’s an interesting topic that I would love to discuss after the game. It’s a big part of the game, which attacks you make, which defensive positions you are willing to take. And I feel it’s not being talked about enough, at least i I haven’t really read intense discussions on this topic on this forum. Map, units, tactical movement and strategic territories are really well worked out, but actual gameplay is difficult to really discuss because the basis for these decisions is so fluid.
