Derek vs. Schroeder

[Schroeder]

Might as well, it’s a real gamble but I don’t see a better time to use them, I’m going to use all 6 of them in the Phillipines, and hopefully get a lucky 3 hits.

[Derek]

You have to choose which tries to which ships before rolling any dice

[Schroeder]

@Derek right, 2 to the cruiser, 4 to the battleship.

@Derek quick question, how did you manage to invade the Phillipines? My gamble actually paid off and I killed both the cruiser and the battleship, I think kamikazes act as a sea battle right, meaning since I killed your ships the marines would sink with them, and not be able to invade? Or do kamikazes not count as a sea battle and only kill ships but don’t interfere with amphibious assaults? It is probably the latter since it happened in-game, but I know sometimes TripleA isn’t perfect on the rules, what’s your take?

[Derek]

@Schroeder idk. I was surprised that the landing still happened. But I’ve never had that happen before. Might have to get a ruling

[Derek]

So apparently kamikaze attacks cannot target transports? I was unaware of this. And it’s also probably why triplea allowed the units to land?

Would I be able to change some things up?

I would’ve just sent lone transports to take the islands without any threat of losing anything lol.

And if I dont take the Philippines then I would not have moved the carriers there during noncombat.

These are your calls. Let me know

[Panther]

It is a bug in TripleA, guys. There was a discussion/ruling recently: just see the postings before and after https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/post/1251224

[Schroeder]

Thanks, Panther. @Derek I am okay with you just redoing the whole US turn because we didn’t know how the rules/bugs of the balanced mod worked, because even though you get to keep a cruiser and a battleship I don’t think it will really matter that much because I don’t have a navy as Japan and have already given up on that. Just redo the turn and we’ll be all good.

[Derek]

Ok thanks! I will post later today 😎

[Derek]

In Shensi, the Chinese infantry scored a hit. you defended with 1 fighter and 1 tacbomber. I took the tacbomber as a casualty. edit if you want to choose the fighter instead on your turn.
