L24 OOB Martin (X) vs FlyingBadger (L+40)

Your game looks completely different - with different colours and flag symbols.

I think I’ve changed a few of the settings. I think I added roundels to stop getting US and ANZAC ships confused. Might have tweaked the unit sizes, map zoom and colour internsity. Been like that a while so can’t remember.

Does Italy scramble?

Did you forget to unload the transport in SZ93? If so, feel free to do so before the battle.

I did! Thanks for pointing that out, that would have been a big cock up!!

1 sub hit, and it could only hit the DD.

@Martin said in L24 OOB Martin (X) vs FlyingBadger (L+40):

I guess you spent the last six days test playing through the next three or four rounds with different strategies, and based on the outcome, you will resign immediately :-)

You are not too far from the truth! I have been looking at our game occasionally this week, and kept missing things or leaving opportunities for you… I have needed luck to stay in this battle, but it won’t last forever, yet whatever I try you are able to counter.

I am taking my turn now, so you should see it soon.
