1940.2 - Witt & PP Axis vs Colt & FMErwinRommel Allies (+25)

[FMErwinRommel]

Please ignore the marti for bombing Kiangsu.  I changed my mind about the attack but clicked too fast and couldn’t exit.  If you choose to make me do the raid, then Jpn can intercept with 2 ftrs and we will have to redo the battle.

[Private-Panic]

I am sure it wont be a problem Ed. That is not how we play.

[FMErwinRommel]

Thanks, just to clarify your absence, are you already away and not back until April 20th?

[Private-Panic]

Go away on 13 and back 20 April.

Maybe we can get a couple more turns done before you leave.  Allied subs in Italy managed to give full convoy damage despite being short handed.

[FMErwinRommel]

U.S. attacking SZ97 with 5 bombers and ftr and 3 subs against Ita DD.  Scramble ftrs?  I made it easy for you, by increasing the odds.  I’ll assume no scramble.

[FMErwinRommel]

The solo Ita DD hit, the solo Ita mech in Persia hit, and the solo Jpn in Aleut hit.  At least the Stalin AA missed and I inflicted max damage.

The allies still have more income and units, but the Axis have advantages.  The coastal and interior Chi provinces adjacent to Jpn IC in China, can all be reached by Jpn planes from the homeland and Phil, supported by ground troops in the IC.  Ger bombers, centrally located, can reach every terr that the allies need to defend or launch an attack from.  Thus, the allies must defend multiple locations with large forces.

I can wait for Adam to return.  I have another game or two that I am supposed to start, which will keep me busy until we resume in a week.

Oops, forgot my own edit for Brit sub in Med.  Darn, both Jpn DD, even tho blasted with force on the first round, returned fire again.  So ANZ doesn’t have enough subs in place to blockade both islands.  Interesting change to Italy’s build routine.  A DD on the west coast of Italy, not the east.  Out of normal range of bombers and forcing allied subs to leave convoy blocking in order to attack.  You should have tried that sooner.

[FMErwinRommel]

Witt, ANZ bombed China IC.  I knew you wouldn’t be available to ask about intercepting, but assumed that your solo fighter would not oppose my bomber and single fighter escort at a numerical disadvantage.  If you think otherwise, we can redo that combat.

[Witt]

Fine without intercepting, thank you.
