@nikola1975 said in PTV Art of War (Ax+5) v Nikola (Al):
Well, it was a shocking revelation. I am not sure how this should be solved, but it is against the game’s philosophy of not sending planes into certain death.
If the game developers don’t change it, you can call it out at the beginning of any game, agreeing with your opponent to not use it. Other than that, you should simply defend against it.

That is the other thing and we can go into philosophy here as well. From the utilitarian point of view, you are right, but I am not a utilitarian, so here I don’t agree with you. Speaking of morality, I highly recommend this Harvard course, it’s great and free and touches things you are speaking about:
https://pll.harvard.edu/course/justiceFrom the game point of view, it does not make sense - as one of the first things I remembered playing A&A is that you can not send planes to certain death. And this “rule” you have played by (or oversee by the authors) is exactly that.

@artofwar1947 No.

@artofwar1947 It seems again one of those rules. It is asking for a kamikaze attack on the seazone 36, where I already had all those ships.
So, let me know if you want to send some pilots there.

By virtue of the amphibious assault on Manilla, the US is conducting an offensive operation in in SZ 36. It does not matter whether the ships were there already or moved in this turn.
1 Kamikaze on the US Cruiser.

Scramble 2 fighters and tac to Kiangsi.

the kamikaze was supposed to attack the US CA (cruiser), not a CV (carrier).

@artofwar1947 Hm, not sure why I read carrier. It missed in any case, I would have edit it otherwise if it hit.

@artofwar1947 I think you uploaded the old savegame.

Scramble fighters from Davao and SZ 36 to defend Manila?
