Looks better than the one I made a few years ago and put in the files section.
I wasn't complaining, I was running a squadron of Japanese battleships, and the Japanese did come out worse for wear on that engagement. (not that the two facts are necessarily correlated )
So essentially, the bonus of crossing the T is the application of Lanchester's Square Law for a turn or two?
I played a game today about a hypothetical warplan orange engagement with a squadron of battlecruiser and battleship per side in order to learn the game. One question that did come up during play was crossing the T.
A Lexington (5 pen) managed to cross the T on a Kongo (3/1+) while also having another Kongo in the same range band broadside-on, and one of our players felt is was unfair that he would get less dice shooting at the Kongo that was head-on due to the larger overpen penalty. Were we missing something/doing something wrong? Or is this simply net effect the smaller target offsetting the increased fudge-factor on ranging?
Cheers,
Martin
