You have a couple spectators! 🤓
Me and @mikawagunichi have played quite a bit with different J1 approaches. Eager to see how this plays out! 😎
Yes, lets continue as is with 5.1. Think it’s the easiest and most straight-forward. Then US had the option to maybe do something with 2 figs and perhaps 1 sub, which I’d like to look at.
Sure.
So what does the map look like? :)
Thought I sent this but apparently not.
The map is identical to the one you posted for UK-3, except there is a J-tran in SZ 45 (and the southern boundary of SZ 46 touches the eastern boundary of SZ 43 (not that of SZ 45 as you see it). As we are using version 5 rules, there is no need to adjust the Japanese purchases and NCM.
For a US-3 CM, obviously the 3 US fighters that arrived during the US NCM-3 are not in play.
I meant, what do the borders look like? Don’t remember exactly, although I could guess, but that would impose more room for error.
I have a Mac. Do not see Prt Scr-button on the keyboard, and control-v did not work.
Perhaps @regularkid can help us out?
Perfect. Now it’s crystal clear. I’ll take a not of the page, so I can use this as a reference. but should remember what it looks like.
The only option is to attack the des in z54. Might have to do that or put my fleet elsewhere.
I’ll reinstall the tr in any case.
