Japanese dream come true

[drw61]

I'm testing the DBBB Iromman game today and lost every battleship at pearl, its the first time it has happened to me. [:'(]

[PaxMondo]

Wow!!!
 

 

[Sakai007]

Epic win right there!

[GaryChildress]

Game over. [:D]

[witpqs]

It's happened to me in scenario 1 AI starts a while back. Great result!

[Hanzberger]

Still no carriers on that list. [:-]

[jeffk3510]

Wowzah. I

[Dan Nichols]

65 torp hits on that list. [:@][:@][:@][:@]

Wish I could get those results. Its not a game breaker, but pretty close to it. Granted all you've lost as the Allied player is a bunch of old, slow BBs...your bombardment TFs. Game is still very winnable from the Allied perspective.

[House Stark]

From an Allied perspective this is simply catastrophic. The eight BBs and 4 DDs is bad (especially given the US DD shortage early in the war). The fact that several more DDs took bad hits and could sink as well is also bad. The fact that one CA and 3 Brooklyn class CLs are crippled and could sink is worst of all. You're gonna be real short of escorts and spare surface combatants for awhile.

How often do damaged allied ships sink in port? There's a high chance that not a single damaged ship on this list sinks at all.

Given Allied damage control, chances are you are right. I always suspect that any damaged Allied ship that makes it to port will not sink, and I will see it again later. If you want to sink Allied ships as a JFB, you'd better catch them in the middle of nowhere and get several good hits, or just sink them outright.

[House Stark]

There's a good chance none of them will sink. But 2+ bombs on a destroyer, 2 bombs and torps each on the Brooklyns, and 3 bombs and 3 torps on a CA is definitely getting into dangerous territory, even with Allied damage control.

I disagree. Allied ships sink in port all the time. The fact that the port facilities are damaged significantly here will retard repair of most of these ships that are listed as "sunk". I'll bet that most or all of those so labelled will go down in this case.

Nice shootin' Tex...[&o]

[HansBolter]

I'm on turn 113 of a DBB Ironman and Japan started with average results in their PH attack.

You hit an extreme, but don't count on that as a norm.

[NormS3]

Who's a norm?[:D]

I've seen 6 go down in day one, but never anywhere close to as many torp hits. Definately way off the curve.

Japan dream and Allied disaster[:)]

[crsutton]

Well, it may be a Japanese dream come true but my "Allied" dream come true would be something involving Natalie Portman and an awful lot of leather..[;)]

[jeffk3510]

Did you do anything fancy or different than the "standard" settings for the attack? Or just outstanding die rolls?

Congrats.. once again.
