I was wondering the same thing.
I have been following this thread but not reading every post of every game.
What is your record, Kondor?
How many games out of how many challenges have you won?

Yes, your fleet is bold, but never could it compete with a American-British 200 Air Fleet
Ex
1 Intrepid (26)
1 Ark Royal (22)
1 Enterprise (25)
1 Yorktown (23)
8 SeaHurricane (40)
6 Swordfish (50)
1 Trunclent (12)
Total
Matching yours, and topping it. Notice all units are based on a carrier exept 1 backup unit to replace a dead one. So i have 8 fighters on a carrier, you have 4. 7 Kondors can be manhandled by carriers AA, I have 4 more fighters. I have less sub, more ASW. You have no torpedo, dont worry i have plenty to share for you. Speacial ability Lucky hit on Swordfist, stopping your cruisers.
I would put my money on this fleet. Dont ever dis the allies, we rock, and have way more carriers than you as you can see.
Fleets have up and downs, but i dnot think it is fair to say 1 beats all i think this one could end the winning streak for you, every fleet has its match

Potential Problems:
Swordfish are easy as anything to splash, so watch out when using them to attack his ships.
The Swordfish SA only works on Battleships.
At least a few of his Escorted Kondors are going to be able to get through all those Hurricanes and hit an armor 4 Carrier with their Range 1 bomb attack.
Most of your Hurricanes are pointless when their aren't Kondors in the air.

I hate to burst your bubble, but this fleet doesn't stand a chance. It would take a VERY lucky swordfish to get through my AA screen.
In this circumstance losing my Kondors doesn't really matter to me at all. My biggest threat to you, and that which you have very little chance of harming, are the guns off of my surface ships.

I agree with KOD, both the swordfish and the hurricanes will take a lot of hurt from the AA, whereas the hurricanes will even have a hard time splashing the escorted kondors...
And the above... the Swordfish SA only works on battleships, not to mention that the 6 Swordfishes also have to kill the u-boats to keep your carriers alive...

SeaHurricanes arent the best fighter however, he would have 4 BF109s i would have 8 Hurricanes, so total of his AA dice from fighters is 28 mine is 40.

How about this one?
1 Richelieu (54)
1 Alaska (28)
1 Ark Royal (22)
5 Wildcat (35)
3 Barracuda (36)
2 Barb (24)
Great on surface, good on air and air defense, good sub.

Also keep in mind my Swordfishes are escorted too.

Escorting doesn't work against ship-based AA, btw.
And even escorted, only 6 armor is pretty easy to down.
Also, he throws a base of 7 dice at your fighters, which have a vital armor of 8. You throw a base of 6 dice at his fighters, which have a vital of 9. Even using your expert, that's still only 7 dice against a vital of 9. So, he has better odds of shooting your fighters down.
Also, let's keep it civilized in here.

6 swordfish could do a pretty large deal of amage to 2 cruisers

One thing to remember is that in order to attack my surface fleet with your swordfish you need to be directly on top of my ships -- and being as you are VERY adament that you are going to escort them it only leaves you with 3 attack aircraft over each sector of attack.
These attack aircraft only have a 3 armor which I almost can completely guarentee to abort with my surface ships AA every turn. In addition I can stack 2 of my 109s over each of my surface groups which I feel confident would be able to at least abort your last attack aircraft.
Keep in mind I'm only talking about aborting here, not to mention the fact that I stand very good odds of killing at least one or two of your swordfish per turn -- significantly weaking your air assault for the following turn.
Your only hope at achieving even a modicum of success would be to employ a bit of deception (bait and switch) in order to maximize your initial first turn assault on one sector, being as in any event your successive turns after the first will more than likely be too feeble to give me any problems anyways.
