Richter von Manthofen

Ok Avenger gets aborted Jav at C6 is save

2 Avengers attack at G6

Surviving Javelins smoke.

(the Fencers air cover crew willget the Victoria Cross)

You can still do your sub attacks
packertim

2 avengers at jav in g6 ger 3 torps each

1.  Rolls: (3d6)       

2.  Rolls: (3d6)       
Richter von Manthofen

your subs?
packertim

so the jav in g6 is sunk.  now for the sub shots from 5b, d and e  

even if they hit you get your chance with smoke
packertim

barb1 gets net3 at 6c  (3 base +1 Lockwood -1 Jav=3)


Rolls: (3d6)       
packertim

i will wait for your smoke roll before i decide to fire at 6c or 6e with barb 2 and 3
Richter von Manthofen

smoke
Rolls: (1d6)   
Richter von Manthofen

makes it
packertim

barb2 gets 1 torp at 6c  or 3 torps at carrier and jav in 6e.  i don't mind giving you 2 obj but 2 things if 6e survives intact can i stop you from taking 6g next turn.   we will start by taking 6e with 5e        barb3

 Rolls: (3d6)          at the jav in 6e
packertim

barb2 will take 3 torps at carrier in 6e.  i know this gives you 2 obj but even if i get 1 hit on the carrier that would present you with some tough choices


Rolls: (3d6)       
packertim

not only do you have 2 obj  but you have the capability of putting both ships on 6g this turn.  i am in trouble.    


init  Rolls: (2d6)         +2
packertim

your air recovery i believe is simple  you have a hellcat and a hurricane that can go on carriers.   i will take 3 avengers, 2 dauntlesses and 1 hellcat.
Richter von Manthofen

no need to roll for init...

Wink

Rolls: (3d6)       

barb1 gets 2 torps at jav in 5e

Rolls: (2d6)     
Richter von Manthofen

I assume that ends this struggle ...

3 Objectives + a PBY go to me

4 Javelins
1 Truculents
2 Sea Hurricanes
1 Swordfish

... score to you
packertim

onnly 1 torp got to ark royal so you win.  

congratulations!  

very bloody  you lost 4 javs, 1 truc, 2 hurricanes but won  

i lost a pby  but lost  

lockwood was in barb1  and i was  too concerned about  losing him
packertim

you won and really deserved it  you had some real clutch performances the last couple of turns plus you out -managed me.  i wanted to keep losses down for the next round so i  was too conservative  good job
Richter von Manthofen

I was wondering where he was.

With your air superiority, you should have won the game (its strange that 1 Fighter covers all bombers...)

I wanted to preseve my Trus at all cost, so I did not move them (they were in a perfect position to hurt your Carriers)

I believe you should have concentrated to secure the northern Objective, Your Avengers + Subs gave you an edge I believe in achieving this.

I think I will not last long, I am now UNDER 200 points for the next game and my Javelins are mostly gone. You would have had a better chance against the BB builds I will probably face...
packertim

yes,  i should have done everal things differently

it was a combination of overconfidence and keeping losses down for next round

now i don't have to worry about that  

congratulations again
Richter von Manthofen

Guys-

A plane may make ONE attack per turn- this was clarified shortly after Task Force came out. A plane may do ONE attack per turn- strafe, AA, bomb, or torpedo.

That's it. I didn't see anything during the game that would mess anything up though.


I looked it up. Its already in the original rulebook. Planes with multiple attacks can only use one of those.
