I have received RAEVSKI's fleet.
The Mighty A

PM sent with fleet.

Question though, did Raevski get to see the map before he sent his fleet?  If not, he should get a chance to revise his fleet if he wants to do so.
Aquarius

No, he did not.

His fleet is well suited to the map, though.
Aquarius

I forgot about your Sparviero (not that it affects my planes that I placed).

You can place it if you want.
The Mighty A

I have to go.  I will go ahead and make my attacks.  If you place your Sparviero, I will make my aa attacks against it later.

For air attack (If you abort or destroy any of the planes, take off the first roll for that type plane).

The Mighty A

Zara 1 was crippled the round before from a torpedo hit.  I only needed one Kondor to hit the Zara to sink it.

your move.
RAEVSKI

Can VV step out of the match by moving 1 up
It has my admiral aboard
Descretion is the better part of valour
Aquarius

I would rule that yes, it can.
The Mighty A

That works for me.

I assume that the game is over.  Unless Raevski feels like sending either of his planes out to fight.
RAEVSKI

The planes also believe in the better part of valour. Smile
Thanx, for the game i got hammered. that AA tore my airforce apart.
The Mighty A

Good game.  The dice were on my side.  It should be interesting if I go up against Aquarius and the dice continue to perform well for both of us.
