Global 1942 GenCon setup - Stu (L) v Simon (X+7)


  • @simon-tressel said in Global 1942 GenCon setup - Stu (L) v Simon (X+7):

    Unlucky rolls in Iraq there for you.

    Yeah, it happens sometimes xD

    Intercept in France?


  • Intercept in France?

    Yes please. Out of curiosity, is there a reason why I wouldn’t? This is a new mechanic for me.


  • @simon-tressel Some people prefer not to risk it unless the odds favor them, since you still get the AA shot as well. I’ve seen & had bombing runs where the attacking bomber shoots down the interceptor and the AA misses. When you have to roll 1s/2s there’s always a chance it goes quite wrong

  • You can do your own OOL if you like and send back the file, or let me know what to take. I assume 2 hits to the carrier and one to the destroyer? And then after that?
