8 hits, one less than average, while I had 9 hits (which was one more than average). Another round that went slightly my way - but in navy battles even slight deviations from the average have a big impact!

My plan was to soften you up enough for anzac to finish the rest, especially because you might not choose max def from the beginning (and this is exactly what happened). Now I might have a shot to even win outright with US!

Now before I choose my casualties: You said you wanted my 9 hits to go to ALL ships + 2 tacs. Did you forget about your damaged battleship?
3 damaged carriers + 1 healthy carrier + 1 destroyer + 1 cruiser + 1 damaged battleship = 8 hits.

Sorry for dragging this out, but if you leave the battleship, I might have to leave 1 or 2 subs instead of destroyers…

That makes my choice easy - all 8 hits on my subs!

Round 3.

I attack with

7 destroyers
2 cruisers
1 fighter
1 tac
1 damaged battleship
1 boosted tac

Power: 34
Average hits: 5,66

Just wanted to Bombard Germany with my British bomber, because I thought you need an airfield to intercept. You don’t, so I won’t bombard. Will edit accordingly.

I will Bombard Ukraine then. I will use the dice result from the Germany bombardment.
