Well, I'll be damned. Btw, I deleted the first post because I accidentally rolled six dice. I rolled even more sixes in that roll :-D.

That's it for the Nelson class.

Yeah, you've had at LEAST better than average luck with TTs this game, while my shots have sucked.
Oh well. GG I guess.
Whoa, whoa there. My AA rolls have certainly been exceptional, but my torps? I've rolled way more of every other number than 6 in this game. In all seriousness, I think the most improbable event was my carriers escaping mine damage. That was ridiculous, and I was expecting to take hits.

If it makes you feel any better your RN build is the strongest 300 pt. I've ever seen. Your use of the Sunderland bombers around the shoal in the opening was a great idea.

It was pretty close to average. Out of 67 torpedoes, you hit with 10. Dead average would have been 11.
I didn't track how many torpedoes I threw... it wasn't many... but of course I hit with none.
Well, I had fun. I still think another large map game would be great. Let me know if you're interested.
GG btw, I thought I was lost until the end.

You can always turn a game around, as long as there's some hope. I looked at the situation with my surface fleet sunk, and that was all she wrote. I could not possibly sink your entire fleet with my surface/sub activity, so no point in continuing. But good times.
We can try a larger map battle if you like, though I admit they turn more into slogs as you can't rush the objectives.
I'm a big fan of Coral Sea and Savo, but I'd like to try some others too. Do you want to do the Pacific or European theatre? I've never played out an Atlantic or Mediterranean theatre game once in my entire time on this forum. I mean the Pacific was the site of most of the big fleet action but I wouldn't mind trying out the Germans. Although I've got a ton of ideas I want to try out as the USN or IJN in 500 pts.
