The Map (35 pts each objective):

NeuralDream

You can start. I have posted your fleets at the beginning of this thread.

[I will not be able to moderate any game today until late night (European Time), so try to find another moderator/photoshop user if you want to start immediately, or even better do your own image editing, so that you don't have to wait at all. You don't need fancy graphics. You can even simply write down the name of the ship on each square of the map (even MS Paint will do). Use different colour for each team.]
Boff

Set up roll then?

Yuki2 on F3
Rolls: (4d6)         

Should I do torpedo attacks too?
Masterchief

no if your ship is destroyed during surface attack it doesnt do torpedoes i think.
Boff

Not sure either. Q&A thread says that gunnery and torp is in the same phase
Masterchief

go ahead and fire your torpedoes but i would like to get clarification on that from neuraldream sometime
Boff

If you want to wait its ok. The only mention I can find of this is under the QA thread that says its the same phase. But the rulebook has it go gunnery then torp phase and damage/destruction being added after each phase.. Confused
Masterchief

you can go ahead and go since thats what it says in the rules thread
Boff

Yuki 1 F2
Rolls: (2d6)     

Yuki 2 F4
Rolls: (2d6)     
Masterchief

Oh well. If you want to call it a game we can, victory is certainly yours Smile.
Sink the Bismark

Just for the record, under the new rules the surface phase works as follows-
A surface ship can do Guns and Torbs, or depth charges.

The former torpedo phase is now only the sub phase.
Masterchief

alright good game
Boff

Good game!

Online games are fun..I wanna try this more now Smile
Masterchief

id definitly be up for a rematch after this thing is over.
