@VictoryFirst

I am giving you back a fighter in the North Sea. Here is why: on the first round of combat the Germans scored three hits and you left the UK BB alive. Without knowing how many hits the British are going to inflict on the Germans, I would have left the destroyer alive - not the battleship as you did. The reason for this is that the battleship by itself is vulnerable to German submarine surprise strikes whereas the destroyer is not. In round 2, the Germans whiffed and the British rolled a 2 so that is good no matter if the shot was from a battleship or destroyer. On round 3, the German air units finish off my “destroyer” and then that unit rolls a “4”. A four is a miss from a destroyer.

Therefore, I am giving you back a fighter and placing it in Germany along with the others.

With that adjustment, this opener sees Germany missing 3.02 pieces in the Atlantic and -0.15 pieces on the east front (par on the east front).

Net German opener: -3.17 pieces

“ideal move” not “idea move*”

2d6: 4, 2
