I have no way to do the maps, so could Gross Admiral Raeder or NeuralDream do them? Thanks.
Gross Admiral Raeder

I do not Know How to do them Either
Aquarius

This should be a good match. I wish the Karl Galster had Sub Hunter. NeuralDream, can you do the maps?
Gross Admiral Raeder

When ever we get a Map
Here is My
Setup

Rolls: (1d6)   
Aquarius

Ah yes.

High roller sets up second, since the maps are the same.

Rolls: (1d6)   

I don't think that flags count for setup.

Okay, you set up first.

This is the map from one of the other games, so that we can set up.

I'll be extremely busy this period. I can't make the maps or cards or anything time-consuming for a while. I'm sure someone else will, although I really think it's simple. In one of the matches they used excel and is some others paintbrush. It doesn't have to be fancy.
Aquarius

I made this using word:




It's not great, but if no one else can mod then this will have to work. It takes forever to do.

My initiative:

Rolls: (2d6)      with a +1 flag.
Gross Admiral Raeder

There is no surface fire, so might as well go right into your sub phase.
Aquarius

No, you lose one die when firing torpedoes. Gunnery only hits on a 5 or 6.
Gross Admiral Raeder

If your on for a while we can play

You claim Southern Objective

Initiative
Rolls: (2d6)     

reroll
Rolls: (2d6)     
Aquarius

Methinks you forgot some harrased sub / adjacent destroyer penalties.
Gross Admiral Raeder

I assume with that Init. I am going first so..

Galstor grp to A-7

The 2 U boats on the objective move to E-7

The rest stay Put
Gross Admiral Raeder

No I added My plus 2 to your -1 for all my subs
Aquarius

Your local U-Boat was also harrased. But seeing as it didn't hit anything anyways, I'll let it slide.

Everything of mine moves up a hex.

Your air assignment.
Gross Admiral Raeder

So does that mean they were a Neg 2?
Gross Admiral Raeder

you get a Minus 1 for facing a ASW attack
you can get a -1 for each Adjacent destroyer

Seem you only had 1 DD i figuered the best Negs against me would have benn a -1

Am I right in this assumption.
Gross Admiral Raeder

All 3 Kondors to Bizzy and Galstor Space All 3 will pinpoint Bizzy and Attempt to bomb something

I will wait for your AA
Gross Admiral Raeder

wait let me think
Gross Admiral Raeder

1 kondor will pinpoint Bizzy, The rest will stay at home
Aquarius

Yes, you are right. I had forgotten that I had lost the two destroyers to the northwest to air attacks.
Gross Admiral Raeder

your ASW I believe
Aquarius

I am going to to my gunnery now, even though it is out of order.

Bismarck mains at a Galster

Rolls: (16d6)                                 
Aquarius

Secondaries at another one:

Rolls: (8d6)                 
Aquarius

Tertiaries at the third:

Rolls: (6d6)             
Gross Admiral Raeder

I do not think you are in range?
Aquarius

Galster guns at a cripple:

Rolls: (4d6)         
Aquarius

And it gets 2 torps at the last surviving one:

Rolls: (2d6)     

Come on, baby!!!
Aquarius

Arrgh, $%^&!!!

One crippled Galster of yours remains on the objective.

Your U-Boats.
Gross Admiral Raeder

How are you doing that? My DD are in A7 and Bizzy is Crip, so he can only move 1, Correct. I am confused here.
Gross Admiral Raeder

Gross Admiral Raeder

Just for fun since you did all that shooting for fun
I will roll Chase the Salvoes
Rolls: (1d6)   
Gross Admiral Raeder

If I was on the Objective, Bizzys Main Guns would have missed.
Gross Admiral Raeder

I believe all you have isa ASW against My Subs, unless you moved 2 with Galstor
Gross Admiral Raeder

So I have 3 Subs That cannot be attacked By ASW but suffer a -1 Penalty
The 2 that occupy the space with your boats will wait till you do ASW

514
Rolls: (4d6)          @ Bizzy
Gross Admiral Raeder

512

Rolls: (4d6)         
Gross Admiral Raeder

513@ Bizzy

Rolls: (4d6)         
Gross Admiral Raeder

shit, Waiting on you to ASW

For my last 2 subs
Gross Admiral Raeder

I will re roll sub 510 if your ASW is Successful And it is still alive

U-510 @ Bizzy Rolls: (4d6)          this is affected by your ASW
U-511 @ Bizzy Rolls: (4d6)         
Gross Admiral Raeder

Wow Nothing if you ASW is unsuccesssful

Reroll If it is damged and not destroyed
Rolls: (3d6)       
Gross Admiral Raeder

If you are Successful in your ASW against my Sub, Bizzy Is Sunk

Otherwise you suffer no Damage.

Init.
Rolls: (2d6)     

re roll
Rolls: (2d6)     
ericjohn

Raeder, your torpedo rolls are about like mine in the first round match. I had 4 hits in 59 tries I think - I believe you are 4/58 (unless you are "lucky" and your sub gets hit by ASW...)
Gross Admiral Raeder

Yeah I was pretty unlucky that round. Atleast he needs 2 more turns to get to objective
The Mighty A

Your men are learning how to fire torpedoes from my Italians.
Gross Admiral Raeder

I think that they forgot to load the tubes
Aquarius

Okay, I just realized what I did. I thought that you had moved your Galster group to the objective, not one square above it. Since you already dodged my mains, I will just shoot my secondaries.

Rolls: (7d6)               
Aquarius

But if you are hit by may ASW attack, then you suffer 3 penalties. 1 for the local destroyer, 1 for being attacked, and 1 for being crippled. This would mean that you would only fire 2 torpedoes for U-510.
Gross Admiral Raeder

My Galstors are in A7 4spaces away from you
Aquarius

I moved everything up a square at the start of the turn, making it three spaces.
Gross Admiral Raeder

Can you count the same destroyer Twice like that?
I understand I lose 1 For the ASW but I don't think I suffer 2 penalties from 1 Ship. I think you need a 2nd Destroyer there there?

I could be wrong, I have been Before

AFAICT there's no penalty for being attacked by a Destroyer. Aircraft do give the penalty when attacking, Destroyers merely by being there.
Gross Admiral Raeder

Isn't Bizzy in the space directly above Southern Objective?
Gross Admiral Raeder

D6? Right? If so It is range 4 to A7
Aquarius

No, at the beginning of the turn, I moved it and the Galster up one. You may have missed it in all of the posts.
Aquarius

And EK, you are right. My bad.
Aquarius

Raeder, you are right again. Apparently, I cannot read, and assumed that A7 was directly above the objective. Stupid me.
Gross Admiral Raeder

I am Lost.
