Certainly horrendous. Though I sunk your invasion fleet, next turn, I will lose that BB; making my total losses as 1 DD, 1 CA and 1BB.
I couldn't kill any of your capital ships. I just merely scratched their paint.

And I'd like to go back to Tech Guys attack on my Rangoon TF that was attacked last turn...I understand the Air Attacks but I have questions about your surface attack.
You attack with a BB, CA, and 2 DDs? Now how does that surface TF of 4 ships, manage to penetrate to the Invasion Fleet when I have it in a stack of 2 BBs, 3CAs, 2 DDs, 2 CVLs, a Fast Trans and the Invasion Fleet. I don't believe that CW ships have a stealth ability against an Invasion Fleet? And oh by the way..none of my Zekes on Air Superiority fail to intercept any CW aircraft....
I'm just confused on the Combat Results...they don't add up?
Sully
I'd like to have this explained to me?

The short answer was: your invasion fleet was at the top of your stack.
Interception happen about 50% of the time on the same tile. Recall that overlapping screens is the optimal solution to this flaw. Or you set the CAP and move the CVs. Many things can happen here to have your CAP not working.
The strongest unit (top of stack) is roughly calculated by: hp x defense points
Now, for the TF results...
Initially, your Invasion Fleet was on top of the stack at 12 defense, 4/4
After the bombardments, your Invasion fleet was 3/4, BB Mutsu(?) was 3/4, and a CA 2/4
The top of stack now is a CA (4/4). I chipped 2 hp away from that CA (2/4) when a DD attacked (and lost).
The top of the stack now is BB Fuso 3/3. I used a DD to bombard BB Fuso to 2/3.
The top of the stack now is BB Mutsu 3/4. I used a CA to chip away HP again but the CA lost to BB Mutsu(1/4)
Your strongest unit in that stack is now the Invasion Fleet 3/4, the top of the stack. And I attacked your stack, making your Invasion Fleet defend.
Recall that Invastion fleets defend at 12 pts, the same as an IJN BB. Your other units simply didn't have enough HP to become the top of the stack.
That's the same how Barca sank Eric's Invasion Fleet back a turn ago.

As 1942 winds to a close, I propose we reveal our
"Bonehead Move of the Year". Here is mine:
During the fighting in the South Pacific I overstacked
the airbase at Espiritu Santu. I went to move 1 B-17
to Noumea, but used the move stack button and moved
ALL the air units back to Noumea where Sully destroyed them
on his next turn!

Germany - "Bonehead Move of the Year".
Knowing that Tech-Guy had a lot of marines in Britain i set up a new airfield in the nearby coast and fill it with 4 fresh Me-109f and ground troops just to get hammered the next turn.
