       So pulling more data in on this, what do the scores look like
       after seven logged plays?
       American Bombing: 10 + 17 + 17 + 24 + 21 + 11 + 22 = mean 17.4
       VPs
       Japanese Loss: 15 + 11 + 12 + 12 + 13 + 14 + 8 = mean 12.1 VPs
       American Loss: 21 + 15 + 16 + 24 + 22 + 12 + 12 = mean 17.4 VPs
       Totting this up gives a mean output of +12.1 VPs, suggesting we
       need to push the draw window back up a fraction to +11 to +14.
       Scores so far are:
       Elias 1 = -6
       Elias 2 = +13
       Gordon/Andrew 1 = +11
       Forrest 1 = +19
       Forrest 2 = +12
       Forrest 3 = +13
       Gordon/Andrew 2 = +18
       The proposed new draw window would give us an Allied victory
       rate  of 2W 4D 1L.
       I think we need a few more plays over the next week to settle
       this one.

       As usual, my score is the lowest :-)

       S 15
       solo
       Only had 1 squadron go after the Hellcats on left side of board
       the rest were vectored towards the Helldivers coming in.
       FLAK- effective, shot down 4 x Helldivers and affected 3 bomb
       runs.
       BOMBING- 2 hits on airfield for 1 VP, 21 hits on port for 36 VP.
       37 VP
       LOSSES- 12 x George
       12 VP
       8 x Helldiver
       1 x Corsair
       13 x Hellcats
       22 VP
       VICTORY- 49-22 for +27 for solid American victory. Americans
       bailed out by Helldivers with some good rolls, last hit on port
       netted by strafing.
       THOUGHTS- Japanese were winning by a good margin (score was -4
       at end of turn 5) when Helldivers struck. With the bombing
       rules, you're always in the game even if things are going badly
       if you are the raider. Will run again, as the Japanese have some
       options and just for the fun of it. Looks good to go.

       2.0
       Player: Elias Nordling (solo)
       As usual, I score exceptionally low. The Japanese were
       successful against both raids. On the left, they managed to
       disrupt the bombing and use up ammo so that the airfield only
       received half damage. The Airfield flak was hot, bringing down
       three aircraft (one of them Japanese). On the right, they only
       got two passes against the dive bombers but scored a cohesion
       hit. All this without bleeding too badly. The port flak was
       effective, bringing down two Helldivers and causing another
       cohesion hit. In the end, the dive bombers only had a +1
       modifier each when bombing, and both only scored 10% hits. This
       was the worst bombing result of the testing.
       US: Bombing 6, 16 fighters: 22
       Japanese: 12 fighters, 2 bombers: 14
       Total: 8 Japanese win
       Felt like japanese win
       Comment: The score levels felt right.

       2.0
       Solo
       Put Japanese green in F5. Only squadron in F5 attacks bombing
       Hellcats, the rest head towards the Helldivers.
       FLAK- 2 x Helldiver, affected both Helldiver bomb runs.
       BOMBING- 9 hits on airfield for 10 VP
       3 hits on port for 1 VP
       11 VP
       LOSSES- 7 x George
       7 VP
       3 x Hellcat
       1 x Corsair
       8 x Helldiver
       12 VP
       VICTORY- 18-12 for +6 for a Japanese victory. More or less sent
       token force at the Hellcats to defend the port with everything
       else as that's where the big points are from bombing. Worked
       this time. Victory levels look good.
       Lower score than Elias.  :D

       So pulling more data in on this, what do the scores look like
       after the last three plays?
       American Bombing: 10 + 17 + 17 + 24 + 21 + 11 + 22 + 37 + 6 + 11
       = mean 17.6 VPs
       Japanese Loss: 15 + 11 + 12 + 12 + 13 + 14 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 7 =
       mean 12.0 VPs
       American Loss: 21 + 15 + 16 + 24 + 22 + 12 + 12 + 22 + 14 + 12 =
       mean 17.0 VPs
       Totting this up gives a mean output of +12.6 VPs, suggesting our
       draw window is spot-on. The scores are:
       Elias 1 = -6
       Elias 2 = +13
       Gordon/Andrew 1 = +11
       Forrest 1 = +19
       Forrest 2 = +12
       Forrest 3 = +13
       Gordon/Andrew 2 = +18
       Forrest 4 = +27
       Elias 3 = +8
       Forrest 5 = +6
       This gives us an Allied victory rate  of 3W 4D 3L, which is
       pretty balanced.
       I'm going to stick a fork in this and call it done. Well done,
       guys!
