Would you have landed them much differently? If yes, I can redo this.

I'm would like to target size 6 CV with X, but if this is otherwise good for you I will target other ships and sink her in the next combat.

I would have preferred to leave no CV empty. However you prefer to solve this is good for me.

Guys, this air battle makes the Marianas Turkey Shoot look like a skirmish!

You've gotta come up with some catchy name for this air and sea battle!

I try to negotiate a deal where redo is avoided

If I don’t target top two CVs, those planes could have landed on empty ones
6 / 3+3
4 / 2+2

Would that be fair? That leaves one CV with two planes I can target

I would have enjoyed this even more if there would not have been two rounds of surface combat first

I trust you to be fair.

Therefore, I trust however you solve things; they are fair.

Lets get this show going again.

I got greedy. I so considered to avoid combat the second time a surface action was possible. Should have done that, but then I reckoned that both sides missing was also a possibility, or if both both sides finds there is a decent chance that my 2-box would be included.

Getting greedy is dangerous.

If I wasn't clear. I a ok with your plan to proceed.

It was clear, I continue when I get back home.

Both times I worried about you choosing avoid combat.

Now I feel comfortable even taking box 2 to combat.
