@leemorrison excited for game 2!

@surfer Hey yeah its never fun to win like this. As far as a mulligan goes are you wanting to re-roll the entire round or just the france battle? I dont think the other battles were back breakers like france although they were far from ideal.

@Ghostglider said in L24 bm4 semifinals - axis-dom vs ghost (allies+16):

Thanks.
sz26: 4 ANZ FTRs on 2 US carriers

Fiji is very popular in this game!

maybe i should conquer it lol

I handled everything properly, but it would have been even better if I’d conducted it in a way that MARTI dice were not rolled at all.

Wouldn’t you know it the MARTI had a very different result than the one that counted on the forum

If it’s a bad look, I’m happy to talk about it but knowing you what amount I do, I think you understand. Still, I’ll feel better after I hear from you. To your credit, I know more than a couple of players who would have a meltdown.

SZ33 Battle: You did not ask for OOL even though there was an attacking SS and a defending DD. Common policy is to ask if you want the lose the DD or the CA. You automatically took the DD which is not what I would have done.

Since on Round 2 the attackers had two hits it would not effect the Japanese losses any. All three units would still be dead. However, with a DD and hit BA available on Round 2 versus a CA and hit BA the DD would have fired back whereas the CA was unable to do that due to the SS hit.

I propose we roll in the Forum a single dice @2 to represent the DD firing and see if it hits. If it does the US loses another fighter. A miss and nothing changes.

Thoughts?
