Timing hurt me here. And I went to the well one time too many. I've got a BB TF coming hard on the heels but I didn't pay attention to the routing. The BBs took a long way around and I should have sent them orders to use direct routing. Still, I think I hurt the Repulse enough to cause Force Z to drag & I don't think Chris will break up Force Z and leave the BC to fend for herself... It was fun to watch the movie tho! Everytime I scored a hit from my might cruisers I was hooting & hollering. My wife came into my man-cave just to give me the have-you-lost-your-freaking-mind look...
