FMERommel (X) vs ArtofWar1947 (L) BM3 19L

[FMErwinRommel]

Germany rolled 0-6 on U.S. turn and Axis 1-6 on UK turn. About the same as your prior turn.

[ArtofWar1947]

@FMErwinRommel
Such are the (mis)fortunes of war.

[FMErwinRommel]

Allied fleet move to Eng Chan was a good move for you. Let’s you get 10 points for beachhead N.O. and territory value, at minimal cost in troops, and your transports won’t get sunk like in the Pacific… Bases give you scramble and repair and your fleet was unsinkable. So Germany took drastic measures. Luckily, Germany has the resources and is secure on its other borders.

I have a technical question before I finish my NCM and post Japan’s turn. The Triplea notes, general rules state that “(PE) All air moved must have a way of potentially being picked up or landing”. If you could only attack a SZ by air, if your CV moved close enough for you to land on it; should you be required to move your CV to that location, even if you chose to take your plane as a hit in the attack? Or can you choose not to move the CV? Sounds to me like you are not forced to actually move the CV if the plane was lost. But the rule states that “all air must be picked up if possible.” So if the plane survives, you have to move the CV.

[FMErwinRommel]

Perverse dice again. I rolled overwhelming against sole defenders, but only 1 for 6 in Java first round, and you rolled 2 for 4. Second round rolled great, but you rolled great in both rounds, forcing me to take a bomber as a hit. For the second turn in a row, Allied sub in sz55 rolled a one, so I had to put another DD in as blocker. That’s 1/36 odds of rolling a one, twice. Nonetheless, Japan is still in good defensive position, and has finally invaded the Indian Ocean with a large enough pack of subs to interrupt your defense of SZ 80 or force UK to make a bigger investment defending itself.

[ArtofWar1947]

@FMErwinRommel

Your understanding is mine also. A F or Tac only theoretically needs to be picked up by a CV. If the plane is lost during the battle, there is no need to send the CV.

Forgive the edits, but the vast Japanese Imperial Empire is so vast and there are so many units, that I forgot to NCM 3 infantry from FIC > Shan and 2 fighters from India > Malaya

[FMErwinRommel]

My only other game ended on Saturday, so my turns are faster now. When I’d think about the games, but wasn’t actually at the computer, I couldn’t always remember the situation for each country, since I was playing Axis in both and some aspects were similar and some not, and the game turns were close. I temporarily dropped to level 2, but once the latest win is added to the game results spreadsheet, I will just squeak back up to level 1.

Made your requested change. I took Italy’s turn and then couldn’t post because I forgot to put Triplea online. So I redid my turn. Luckily it wasn’t Germany or Japan with lots of battles.

[FMErwinRommel]

I was pleased with some of the battle results on the Allied turn. Repulsing the U.S. amphib on Celebes with no losses was great, considering Japan lost 4 unguarded transports. The sub off Scotland took the UK DD with it to the bottom. Glad that the Italian AA finally got a bomber, altho I’ve got a lot of max damaged IC’s across Europe.

[FMErwinRommel]

When I built and stocked an airbase in Germany earlier in the game andI got you to leave the Eng Cha and the threat to Berlin. Now that I built and stocked an airbase in Norway, you left again. It was the only way to protect the Baltic from your enlarged fleet. Being in SZ91 lets you threaten northern and southern Europe. So its still a big threat. But the Luftwaffe and wolf packs will make you pay if you get too close.
