U-Sa1 sank a 4/4 transport with 5 settlers, 1 explorer, and 2 tanks aboard. Lost 1hp.

I'd have been happier with another 8 marines transport, but what the hell, we just cannot have everything we want. Let's say this was GS's luck

This is... I mean, I do not think I have ever seen this much luck together. Not with my units, at least - and not with yours either, Tibi, right?

Moving on to the South.

This is totally great!!!!

There goes half of their settlers. Assuming that the other half are in SGSF (very possible), we have one less worry.

Oh, I do not think they will consider losing half their combat settlers too much luck...

1st Bombers missed, 2nd Bombers took the GS DD down to 1/4.

New DD from Tipperary (H.B.S. Apollon) sank a 4/4 GS transport. Lost 1hp, promoted to 4/5. The transport was empty.

It's probably just a decoy force - but we need to sink it anyway. Too late to attack SGSF... we would not have ships enough to break through the escort.

That's OK. Without the decoy, we know where to consentrate our forces. All is good.

Tipperary safe.

I guess I don't understand the question, because the answer, in my mind, is very obvious. If the war goes well, WE WIN!!! I guess the statistician in me must say "there is a very high probability that we will succeed."

New 3/3 DD from Abilene named 'H.B.S. Ulysses' and attacked SW-SW-SW-W-NW. Lost. GS DD up to 2/4.

H.B.S. Castor from Abilene attacked SW-SW-SW-W-NW. Won. Down to 1/3, though.

OK, guys, my head is still dizzy.

I need a little bit of rest to calm down my boiling blood. But I believe that this concludes what we have agreed upon. I am now going to take some shots and post some pictures, so that we better see what kind of a victory we've just scored and what we can do with it from here...

The lady has smiled fortune on us today... however we need to assume that nothing has changed aside from 8 less marines, a couple of tanks and some settlers less to worry about.

Even if we pen them in we have to assume they will break out...

Could I also make a request? When the results are posted in the public forum please don't trash talk. We have an excellent reputation and it doesn't need to be spoilt by being bad winners Even if we do want to shout about how the GS force got it up the ass from a 16" battleship gun

Wise words. Very wise words.

Let me second the request regarding the trash talking. I myself would feel soooo happy to scream out how great we've done this turn and how we sent all those fvcking GS bastards to the bottom of the sea... but keep in mind that "the enemy" is people like us. Civ players, excellent civ players, that worked hard for many weeks to put the invasion together. Seeing their plans hit with something as unlikely as what has just happened is going to make them feel sick anyway.

No need to rub it in, please.

Thanks.

Chronicle entry updated - I hope I have put everything right. I updated it following the log of my chat with redstar (I was making "notes" there while playing the turn), but some details were apparently incorrect - I must have been too excited to properly see how many hp this or that had left.

I believe the chronicle entry is correct now - I am going to check during a replay (to take pictures).

I agree. Would we like it if they rubbed had that turn went the opposite way.

I cannot believe that we were able to sink all those ships. I think that is is great news for us. Maybe this will force GS to abort its landing.

OK, there was one omission - I left the attack of H.B.S. Pollux out. Fixed.

I was wondering if there is any way to blonk the unguarded transports this turn with one of our battle ships?

Blonk? Block or bonk? We used everything we had to attack, nothing else that could still strike. As for using our BBs to block the transports, I am trying to think up the best way of doing that...
