Combat Hit Differential Summary :

@MarshmallowofWar said in Japan Tricky Situation:

On the other hand, if you drop fleet into sea zone six (two carriers, with four fighters from southern carriers on top of them, and maybe a battleship too) , if he does bring in the bombers you can kill a lot of them with your six fighter scramble. It’ll cost a lot, but cheaper than losing the game by conceding the skies to him. You’ll still need to build a lot of replacement planes.

If you go this route, you’ll need to keep that blocker in sea zone 16 to keep his ships from coming in. You’ll want to kill as many planes as you can at once. If you go this way, you definitely have to consolidate your fleet in two turns if he doesn’t hit sea zone 6 on his next turn.

If he goes for Iwo, then your combined fleet can kill his fleet or target his bombers.

No matter what you do, you have to kill most of those bombers. It’s gonna be expensive.

If he’s going for Japan proper with it all, then consolidating your fleet is still necessary because you can’t let him land anything with that bomber stack backing it up. That being said, I would still pump some more ground forces into Japan too.

Have fun.

Marsh

Yea thinking same but not a BB but 2-3 destroyers instead.
If he attacks with 11 bombers ( you got a blocker ) its 11 bombers vs 10 fighters 2 carriers and 2-3 destroyers.
You both get about 8 hits first round, so 2 carriers 2 destroyers and 2 planes vs 8 bombers.
You destroy the remaining 3 for about 2 fighters so you come out ahead in ipcs, trading 12 ipc units for 8 and 10 ipcs units.

Germans are aggressive and nasty - never liked them!

@SuperbattleshipYamato Got it

@tmartin the crazy thing is that the game doesn’t feel that much different even with ~40PU bid. The Allies will more easily control the Atlantic, Med, and Africa. China will be more difficult to exterminate. Moscow will survive for a few more turns.

Otherwise the Axis can proceed as normal with India and Moscow eventually falling due to the overwhelming power of Axis air power.

The game changes dramatically at 60 PUs when China becomes so powerful they can drive Japan off of mainland Asia (or least credibly threaten that).

@Imperious-Leader

Dragoon happens off board. Starting on turn 8, allies roll to see if the units from Dragoon show up in designated spaces on the bottom of the map coming up from southern France. Chance of success increases every turn until the roll is successful. These units are placed from the US and French forcepools. If playing with event cards, there is a chance that Dragoon fails and no units show up at all.

That’s more than half the fun discovering it on your own :)

It really is! And I impressed my playgroup too.

Awesome thanks to both of you for the quick replies.

Updated after a play test. Small changes to the setup and rules.

@PGsquig
I normally play the 1940 versions of Europe and pacific and 1914 it would have to be a plan trip in advance i dont mind traveling a little for it I might have one more person who might join in

Hi! (With several more characters are required.)

@skay85 The Rulebook can be found here.

@SeaYa Thank you this advice will be very helpful.

@mike64 Yes

@Panther 2.5.22294

But now I see that there are dozens of 2.7 releases on Github.

Here’s the game file. It looks like play-by-forum is still broken in TripleA. Since this is friendly, I didn’t bother with a dice server so feel free to use the built-in dice roller. Upload the save file when you’re done.
