Gah, just realized I should have brought the Yahagi instead of the Nachi.
Oh well.
Hopefully the torps will be flying fast and furious.
Your setup.

no guns, just the two subs in D6 to try to sink each other. i presume you will engage:
My U510A vs your I-19B
Rolls: (4d6)  (3+1 for wolfpack)
your counter-fire

Aquarius

Crap.

Dude...
the yamato is not in correct possition on map... ought to be in E9.
Your move.
|
Task Force 57

Aquarius
|
Oh crap you're right.
In that case, put Yamato in D8 and Nachi in F8.
|
Aquarius

OH MY GOD!
The Aqualuck has returned in spades
time for me to die in a very german manner.....
|
Aquarius
|
Let's see if I can hit you:
Yamato at Tirpitz:
Rolls: (18d6)
|
Aquarius
|
1 more damage to Tirpitz.
Tertiaries at the Karlsruhe:
Rolls: (5d6)
|
Aquarius
|
1 damage.
2ndaries at the Hipper:
Rolls: (8d6)
|
Aquarius
|
I-19C gets 4 torps at the Hipper:
Rolls: (4d6)
|
Aquarius
|
Hipper dies.
I-19A gets 3 torps at the Karlsruhe:
Rolls: (3d6)
|
Aquarius
|
And the Karlsruhe dies a horrible, screaming death.
Nachi captures northern objective.
Map before movement:
|
Aquarius
|
Let's see....points:
150 for two objectives.
2x Galster is 16
2x Hipper is 32
1x U510 is 11
1x Karlsruhe is 10
69 points sunk.
150 + 69 = 219.
So basically, I need to sink the Tirpitz to win.
Can do. You want to continue? You have sunk:
1x I-19 13
2x Isokaze 22
Total 35.
If you want to continue....
init:
Rolls: (2d6) + 2

Task Force 57

the death ride of hipper has been concluded but im afraid my honor demands I fight to the death...besides, to escape I must run from your subs and with your rekindled aqualuck thats a no-brainer!
WE FIGHT! All GERMANY IS AT OUR SIDE...
Init:
Rolls: (2d6) +2
|
Task Force 57
|
Your move dude...
PS... this has been a fun match, hope to play you again after we conclude this.
|
Aquarius
|
Yamato stays on the objective, both subs down one square.
|
Aquarius
|
Although, you know that you can exit any map edge, right?
|
Task Force 57
|
yes... I have been thinking about that a fair bit today at work.
sorry I havnt been on today, just got in.
Ok...
The options are... I move off map and give you victory or I move onto objective to try to vital/hit yamato and torp her to death after which you sink me with your subs and win anyway... hrrrrrrrrm
I guess It would be sh$%$^ty to try to sink your only heavy at this stage in the tourny.
OK
I DECLARE THAT TIRPITZ IS RUNNING OFFMAP FOR MY MOVEMENT
(saving the life of my admiral as well)
AQUARIUS WINS.
Congrats steve...good match! If the Aqualuck hadnt of returned with your subs and last DD I think that might have gone very diffrently!
please post kills... I gotta sort out a late supper for family.
catch up with you tomorrow
