May/Jun '43
Impulse #1 (Axis)

The German SUB is aborted.

Depressed the German SUBs decide to stay out of any further action.

May/Jun '43
Impulse #1 (Axis)

Will Allies search in Timor Sea, or Cape Naturaliste?

Just Cape Naturaliste

Japan adds one FTR2 to the 2-box

US finds in Cape Naturaliste (Allies 1, Axis 9). How to proceed?

Naval Air.

Fly the F4Fs as fighters, others as bombers. Increase my air-to-air odds by two columns and decrease your air-to-air odds by two columns to +5/-4.

US wins the air combat.

The Japanese TRS is sunk.

Not happy with the ground strike result.

4% that you would miss everything. Not as low as I thought it would before I calculated. And, to make you feel better, you had a higher change of missing everything that rolling a 2 or 3 (3% total) on a 2D10.

Thank you.

I've seen worse ground strikes. And worse luck. However, I am not all that fond of unlikely results. Thats one of the reasons I do not like the 2d10 table. With the 1d10 table there is a 10% risk in getting the worst result. Kind of prefer that. On the other hand getting two of those attacks (1 on the 1d10 table) in a row isn't all that fun either.

Intercept this CP which left from Kwajalein?

I love the 2D10 table. It has something of a Fog of War in it and that's how it should be.

Interception fails, moves into Tasman Sea.

Intercept this CP leaving Honolulu?

Miss, moves into New Zealand Coast.
