L18 BM3 Adam514 (Axis+3) vs farmboy (Allies) Game 3

[farmboy]

I have to think about my casualties in relation to the UK turn but probably I’m only taking bombers off. I assume your casualties would be the two tacs and 3 fighters?

[Adam514]

Yeah, but why keep carriers alive?

@Adam514:

Yeah, but why keep carriers alive?

Because of the retreat they are back in 110 and will repair at the end of the turn. I thought the carrier may still be useful to me to support transports or as cannon fodder against your next fleet. :) But I ended up dropping one carrier and keeping a bomber. Its too bad I didn’t make that decision on the first round.

For some reason, the edit took out the bombers with more range. I will be editing again and landing two on Scotland.

[farmboy]

I had a weird glitch on the China Turn. I could build an inf and had the option of placing it in the Himalayas. I’m assuming its a technical error but thought this might be a special rule in BM?

Assuming its just a technical error, there may be a China inf held over that I shouldn’t place, if a China territory becomes open again.

[farmboy]

Sorry for all the comments and corrections. Just thought this was better to say in advance of the UK turn. Landing an inf in Holland that was already on a transport from a previous turn. I would like to drop the art on the transport in the UK. I’m pretty sure that I can’t do that and both units must land in Holland if I want both to be off the transport on this turn. If that is the case, both units will land and I will edit after.

Also 8 air are hitting the transport in 112 and I am assuming no scramble.

[JDOW]

@farmboy:

I’m assuming its a technical error but thought this might be a special rule in BM?

Yep, this is a special BM rule. Whenever Germans, Italians and Japanese occupy China entirely, the “unholy trinity”-sacrament gets activated creating an immortal Chinese unit that spawns in the Himalaya and that can shoot a rocket each turn PRIOR to the actual Chinese turn. The rocket auto-hits and removes a hostile unit. As this is prior to the Chinese turn, a Chinese inf will spawn in the affected territory in case only one unit occupied it.

The rule was designed to make it harder to hold China in case all Axis powers invaded it. Thus, the Axis need at least 2 units per territory in order to prevent it from spawning guerrillas.

note all the edits.

[farmboy]

Actually, the British fighter on the UK will go on the carrier (if I get you in time) I won’t repost since I see you (or someone) has already downloaded.

[JDOW]

I admit, I don’t get the idea of retreating just to save that damaged Carrier. You had 2 German planes on the hook which you could have killed safely. I think this would have bee my highest priority.

Sorry Adam for talking strategy, I hope my talk is “hindsight” enough so that it does not affect the upcoming game and I doubt we will have another situation like in 112 again in this game.

So I hope it is ok. I would have more to say about this turn but this would definitely be inappropriate.

It’s an interesting game for sure and I always strive to improve to understand a map and whether it is worth fighting for one side or the other.

In the past (Vanilla) I saw position that I thought were lost for the Axis but they managed to get the win. Recently I tended to overestimate Axis positions in BM. In this game I think Axis is past the point they can be stopped but I appreciate giving it a good fight, especially as the situation in Europe is certainly non standards.

[JDOW]

@JDOW:

@farmboy:

I’m assuming its a technical error but thought this might be a special rule in BM?

Yep, this is a special BM rule. Whenever Germans, Italians and Japanese occupy China entirely, the “unholy trinity”-sacrament gets activated creating an immortal Chinese unit that spawns in the Himalaya and that can shoot a rocket each turn PRIOR to the actual Chinese turn. The rocket auto-hits and removes a hostile unit. As this is prior to the Chinese turn, a Chinese inf will spawn in the affected territory in case only one unit occupied it.

The rule was designed to make it harder to hold China in case all Axis powers invaded it. Thus, the Axis need at least 2 units per territory in order to prevent it from spawning guerrillas.

I expect you to acknowledge my late aprils fool joke ;-)

LOL!

You had me and that needs to be corrected in the map too. Sorry for all the text and corrections Adam

Himalayas is the “capital” of China for coding purposes.

I would have traded a carrier for German air for sure.

No worries JDOW, feel free to talk strategy.

note that I edited out the Chinese inf that I put on Himalayas after falling for JDOW’s rule. LOL.

I agree with you guys on the carrier. I’ll comment more when I have more time, but I got stuck on a certain idea about how things were going to play out that made the carriers a higher priority than the German fighters. Had I been a bit smarter about it, the carriers would have gone first and I would have finished the combat with the US. It would have opened up a possibility for the British too to hit Novgorod.

Haha, glad I caught you:D
