Well, it appears we're about to get our first active demonstration of the IJN's (in)famous DamCom!

I'm sure they've got it.
 
Torps are definitely hitting, damage is another issue.
 
I'm not going to lie, this is actually nail-bitingly tense. Our doomed flight has already defied the odds, and it'd be so painful for us to get all the way to the finish line but then come up short at the last second.
 
Getting this far but failing to sink Akagi, that would be a shame but still very dramatic twist.

Since it's been a fair bit and it doesn't look like anyone else will roll, I think I'll give it a second go.

Thinking of being merciful with the rolls.
though even if Akagi no-sells the torps, you'll still get a boss fight, just a different one
Lesse: There are 10 torps being launched, divided among 2 d20s for damage.
Let's say only 17 or higher is a complete no-sell, 13-16 is only 1 torp does damage, 9-12 is 2 torps damage, etc. Should we go with that, or no?

I'm here to explore alternate history. (With magic.) The Battle of Midway turning into a draw or even a USN loss counts as alternate history, right?

... You do realize that in real life, the Torpedo squadrons didn't sink any Japanese ships? Successfully nailing the Akagi would be the alt-history, if we don't then things will almost certainly just go as they did in real life, if a little better for the USN due to more Imp CAP being shot down earlier.

Oh dear, it seems that the IJN has some kind of surprise in store for us.

That would mean that 3 torps do damage.
