played a naval thunder game. using operation pedestal as scenario. if the convoy did not meet malta. malta would surrender august 13,1942 , problem was no stats for supply ships.
we came up with a way to incorporate subs and aircraft as miniatures.
the Italian cruiser fleet was repulsed.
the convoy was attacked by aircraft and subs. only 4 ships made it. yes the ss ohio did make it.
we randomized attack on supply ships. the axis player did not know which as more important than others.
we came up with hourly flow chart for aircraft. one turn launching., one turn flight time. one turn on target. one turn recovery. each turn represents an hour.
if aircraft hit. roll 1d 10. 1-5 damaged, 6+ destroyed.
you can take two damaged aircraft to make one flight worthy.
researching supply freighter/ tnker stats.
ss ohio 10,000 tons. had two aa guns.
rest were 7,500 tons with 1 aa gun.
ok to email me if you want a free copy of our aircraft turn sequensce.
