Wow, that’s painful to watch. Sure surprised me on Syria and now I have a big problem in Iraq. I think one Italian plane is like the only time you didn’t lose less than average when planes exposed - that extra German bomber (nothing lost in 81) just kills me every turn

[gamerman01]

Well, not a very big problem, I guess… :grimacing:

Friendly reminder, to avoid any problems with this J move, in zone 42 if you attack the submarine, you will not be able to move ground units off Java in the noncombat movement phase because transports (which would include cruiser/battleship picking up marines) that load ground units in the combat movement phase must take them on an amphibious assault (page 15 of Europe rulebook). If the transports stay in Zone 42, they are necessarily involved in the combat and so then cannot move.

You can move sea units away during the combat movement phase to avoid the combat, but the transports can’t load unless they are going to conduct an amphibious assault this turn.

This is all only if you attack the sub - if you ignore it, of course you can transport the ground units freely during the noncombat movement phase.

I apologize if you already knew all this, I just wanted to try and avoid a problem before it happens.

This is a critical US/UK move - I’ve been thinking about it and working on it but might need a little more time. Busy weekend traveling out of the County for social events each day, too…

I have had to assess the whole situation and strategy again, to even know what to buy for the USA. But I’m getting there.

Or I might just get it all done here today…

I just posted so I could reboot and reload… was getting really slow for some reason. Those are 2 more big hits for you. Nice 10%er :P I was lucky on that Russian turn though

[gamerman01]

You’re making my brain hurt and sucking tons of hours of time, so yes you should be quite pleased with yourself. I like this US UK move though… it took me a long time to come up with it

Well, the British never got hit, so that helps ease the pain of getting hit by 2/2 destroyers…

Really sorry about the edit mode mess. I’ll explain it here.
On USA turn, I unloaded the AAA to Africa, leaving 1 UK infantry on 1 USA transport in 92.
On UK turn, I loaded 1 infantry to a different USA transport in 92. I transported 2 infantry, 1 arty, 1 tank from UK to Africa.

I couldn’t get it to unload my 4 UK units on the noncom move, so used edit mode.
To get it exactly right (1 UK infantry on each of 2 different USA transports) I edited in one USA transport with 1 UK infantry on it in the middle of the Atlantic. If you would be so kind as to move it to 92 during an Italian turn movement phase using edit mode, it would then be perfect. Sorry again.

[gamerman01]

You are playing really well and I’m having a great time. I guess I was too generous in taking zero bid - I should have taken a sub to 98 and attacked 97 on UK1 like I usually do - I have a big Egypt problem now, and so I can’t lose Russia as long as you have Egypt.
