I took more naval hits than expected from all 3 sea battles. Sank my BB rather than lose a plane, since it would be sunk on Brit turn anyway.  Allies rolled above average in EngCha, so I lost a plane in addition to my 2 subs.  Chose a TB, since one would have had to land in Hol.  But made up for it in France, which rolled poorly.  So I had more ground units left than expected.  Yugo went well, killed all but one, so was able to retreat forward and leave it to Italy.  Never tried this before.

@FMErwinRommel:

I took more naval hits than expected from all 3 sea battles. Sank my BB rather than lose a plane, since it would be sunk on Brit turn anyway.  Yep, planes are a premium for Germany.Allies rolled above average in EngCha, so I lost a plane in addition to my 2 subs.  Chose a TB, since one would have had to land in Hol.  But made up for it in France, which rolled poorly.  So I had more ground units left than expected. Very good rolls in France! Yugo went well, killed all but one, so was able to retreat forward and leave it to Italy.  Never tried this before. Very common move.  Good way to move those troops to the front fast.

Saw your comment on low luck dice in the other thread.  Yeah, I like normal dice.  Low luck is too calculating and there is no chance.  Needs to be some chance in war.

I knew what I wanted to move and where for the most part.  But making sure every unit was in position for next turn was time consuming.  The computer often refuses to load and move tt’s where I want them if more than 1 tt in a sz.  I should have loaded and moved tt in sz6 to target, before moving another tt into sz6.  Had to undo move to sz6 and its payload for Korea, in order to get the correct units to Carol.  Yunnan battle went well, no losses.  Hunan made up for it with both inf hitting.  Brit is fun to play, looking forward to your moves.

Mussolini is on his heals!

[FMErwinRommel]

Chi didn’t build in Szech as I had hoped, guess you remember what happened in our first team game.  And my defenders in Yun all missed.  This will not be as easy for Japan as in our first team game.  Nuts, knowing Taranto was coming, I should have kept the damaged Ger BB and taken a plane as a hit in the North Sea on G1.  Then, you would have had tougher choices to make.  I’ve never seen a build up of Brit planes in Malta on B1.  I will take Italy’s turn tomorrow.

[Desert_Admiral]

Yeah, not having to fight the battleship really freed me up to do as i wanted.

I spread Italy thin.  The odds were in my favor, except for Gib, but with such small numbers, it was a big risk.  I took Gib, even odds, as no planes could reach.  All my units hit, all Brit missed.  But the opposite happened with the Fr fleet.  All my ships missed and all the Fr ships hit.  I could have added a plane for better odds, but gambled and lost.  I rolled again round 2, thinking cr would be sunk anyway.  But forgot the retreat would have put it in protection of scramble.  I missed again.  This cost me an N.O. and the Fr fleet will make it much harder for Ger to take out the Brit fleet.  I did get the N.O. for Greater Roman empire.
