Combat Hit Differential Summary :
@jdow I’m curious, if you are willing to share, if my Soviet moves towards China and India impacted at all on Japan’s choices?
@farmboy Well, I’d say apparently not, as I still pushed towards India despite the extra units you brought in to defend. It certainly made the push a bit harder as I felt I had to invest into the harbour to bring 2 extra ground as otherwise I believe the battle would have been too dicey in case you’d make a stand.
On the other hand this facilitated the German advance in the East. The never ending trade-off the Allies have to make. Increasing pressure on a certain part of the map always also means to decrease the pressure somewhere else.
@jdow yeah I wasn’t going to stop you from taking India. I regret not trying to keep a couple of destroyers in range just to make that more difficult (i’m a little rusty). But I’m wondering if you had shifted your placement of units in the pacific. Last time we played, you had stacked Caroline islands with air to deny it to me and I had trouble getting the US setup in the pacific. I didn’t expect ultimately to hold India (although I would have stacked it if it seemed possible to hold) but I was hoping your placement and spending would have been impacted to give the US more room to maneuver. I usually move Soviet units West rather than east (unless I’m expecting a Japanese attack on the USSR) and was trying something different this time.
I actually don’t think I lost much against Germany. I might have been in a position to trade some inf for territory and a couple of ipcs (and maybe delay your use of the Novgorod factory by a turn) but I don’t think I could have slowed you from reaching Bryansk or Rostov on the next turn.
@farmboy Yeah, you did not lose much, but the German advance went as swift as it could go after 4 turns and you could have bothered me a bit more.
Re Japan: I saw the chance to go for India and went for it. Alternatively, I could have made the same fleet movement but bring enough air to hold Caro, also a valid option.
But I found it more attractive to go for India as disrupting this unit supply in turn 4 without making major confessions is worth it imo.
@jdow so possibly if I had done a better job of delaying the attack on India (by having destroyers available to block) you would have then stacked Caro and I would have held India another turn but not been able to capture Caro.
I had thought I had made two errors in the pacific. Not having a destroyer available to block and not stacking all my air in queensland or wake last turn. The soviets were largely meant as a feint to force Japan to commit more westward (although if tehy would have meant holding india, than i probably would have moved them there).
Hey Sir, I need to beg for an edit.
I accidentally took 2 planes from the Java seazone to India while 3 planes were sitting idle at FIC.
There was no point in taking them as it would force them to land on an AC.
Can we assume the planes on India came from FIC?
I swear this has nothing to do with the dice outcomes and I just rushed through the real turn while I took the planes from FIC during practice mode.
@jdow yes. No problem!
@jdow no rush of course, but just checking if you forgot to post.
