DaJudge

Wow, was hoping to have a day off after that last grinder of a match but don't want to keep you guys waiting anymore. 
If it's first come, first serve, I'll pick allies, that's how we did it in the first round but a roll-off is ok with me.
Good luck PrideoftheRoyalNavy. I likely will be calling you POTRN to avoid carpal tunnel. 
Onward

DaJudge

POTRN- Please let me know what the best time is for you to be online.
I work 9-4 M-F eastern time(Florida) and have quite a bit of down time at work as I am in sales.
I can be on at night but it's a bit more spotty as I go out a lot and have an 8 year old but I'll try to be available as often as I can.

I'll buy Saratoga, Avenger for 40 and bank 4.

ok, then folgore goes back to airbase (i forgot that i should be going 2nd with air, so if youll let me folgore never left the base, if you wont let me get away with that then hes rearming.) Tirpitz will shoot at haida with mains Rolls: (15d6) only 6s hit
2nds go towards haida (or if shes dead then butler) Rolls: (7d6)

JC Butler stays right where she is.
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
i buy a 109, tirpitz moves to b-9 (still contests objective)
i have to move my air first, so folgore to tirpitz
|
DaJudge
|
Sara in C1 actually. I can't remember the coordinates without looking at the map first.
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
saratgoa would be at c1
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
you move an air now (folgore went to tirpitz incase u didnt see that, tirpitz is at b-9)
|
DaJudge
|
Avenger, Barracuda and Wildcat to Tirpitz, WC escorting of course.
Your AA-
|
DaJudge
|
Wildcat with expert dog fighter will shoot at the Folgore- Rolls: (8d6)
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
109 goes to tirpitz
Tirpitz prays for her life, then shoots at the death-defying avenger
Rolls: (9d6)
the 109, seeing the avenger fires aswell (if avengers gonethen hes shooting barracuda) Rolls: (7d6)
folgore, following the 109 (if avenger is still alive, hes goin for it, if not then barracuda, if cuda isn there then its to the cat) Rolls: (6d6)
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
now i could be mean and say the 109 killed the cuda, but i wont so avenger and cuda aborted
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
o crap forgot about escort, both got through
|
DaJudge
|
Wow, both get through to attack, that's amazingly bad luck. Sorry.
Avenger with expert torpedo bomber and battleship killer gets 5 torpedoes(ridiculous)- Rolls: (5d6)
Barracuda will wait to see what the Avenger did.....
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
wow that was lucky....................i think my saving was for nothing
|
DaJudge
|
2 hits scored....flooding amidships...
Barracuda will use expert bomber and drop bombs- Rolls: (9d6)
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
sigh....ok the survivors on board Tirpitz, aftr cursing and sacking their aa gunners, man the guns and fire revenge shots at butler
Rolls: (15d6)
Rolls: (7d6)
Rolls: (5d6)
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy

butler dies, it seems the gunners were so mad they barely shot lil butler, butlers dieing shots
|
DaJudge
|
Could have been worse I guess, she's still a beast at 3 hull points.
Want to try and finish it now? You will have no air. My planes land on Saratoga of course.
I bank 17 as Baltimore took that last objective you had. You bank 5 and are at 6 total. I have 23.
init roll- Rolls: (2d6)
re roll- Rolls: (2d6)

lol, forgot all about her. Range 2 I get 2 dice. She goes down with all hands. No return fire.
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
tirpitz limps towards the top objective, knowing air cover is far behind, only blood, sweat and tears await them. As they trudge on one man on the deck rolls 2 dice
Rolls: (2d6)
|
DaJudge
|
So not buying anything I assume, you have 6.
I'll buy B-25 for 9 and bank 14.
Sara and Baltimore to C2(together)
Avenger and Barracuda to Tirpitz
B-25 to Tirpitz as well.
Your AA shot.
|
DaJudge
|
Wildcat will escort if necessary.
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
i am so fricken screwed
Tirpitz, with its previous AA gunners sacked, shoots at the oncoming horde of aircraft with whatever they can find, a man on deck with a potatoe gun rolls a die to see what will happen to the avengers.
Rolls: (9d6)
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
With the defence of Tirpitz failed, and the replacements AA gunners also sacked, the men aboard Tirpitz cry for their mutters and awaite their fate

OMG that was hilarious. hey, if you can laugh and joke at a time like this, you're a really good sport.

Barracuda with Expert Torp- Rolls: (3d6)

And down she goes....
You do have time to buy a ship before I get to the island...or not.
It's up to you if you want to continue but I have to hit the sack.
|
PrideoftheRoyalNavy
|
as the men scream and panic, listening to orders "TO PORT, TO STERN, FORWARD, HALT!" 4 sudden *thud* *thud* thud* thud* hit the ship, the men look at eachother before slipping into darkness.......
|
DaJudge
|
She was a proud ship.....
However, US airpower is RETARDED at best. It's winning every game in this tournament I think. I didn't even go all out and buy a Halifax for 6 and a Catalina to Shadow! It could have been worse.
Thanks for the game Pride, you're a good sport.

I will go down with my favorite ship, that was an incredibly lucky torp run, i really thought Tirpitz would be the war winner, i should have stuck to what i did against ND. It was a great game man, would you like to play a regular game after the tourney against me, i enjoyed playing agains you. Good Luck against either The_Luky_Y or Aquarius *Salutes while going beneath the ocean*

Yes it was but even the mightiest ship can't dodge 13 of them but hitting 6 of them is pretty darn good I must say and Baltimore's gunnery was lucky as hell also.
I'll be glad to play when the tournament is done. You will be allies!
Off to sleep....
onward

*pops up from the waves to say another thing* Actually you can be allies, i want revenge against the avengers  Ill be watching your championship game, good luck.
