Can you do me a favor and do:
-1 F ART to Alsace
+1 F INF to Belgium?
I forgot that allied units don’t count for the “1 INF per territory” thing. I brought 12 FTRs to Alsace against 1 INF so the dice shouldn’t statistically be an issue.
@domanmacgee gotcha - and just a heads up, armor don’t absorb hits on an amphibious assault so I have to edit that off too.
@the_good_captain said in [Game 4] TGC (CP) v DoManMacgee (Entente) -oob, no bid, RR:
@domanmacgee gotcha - and just a heads up, armor don’t absorb hits on an amphibious assault so I have to edit that off too.
Are you sure? I read Page 22 as them not being able to absorb the hit from the defender’s artillery bombardment. Was there a FAQ?
huh…I’ve never read that interpreting it as only applicable to the pre-invasion artillery strikes but, yes I am fairly certain it is meant to be applicable to amphibious attacks:

However, just to make sure I have it right, I will ask him a clarifying question.

@the_good_captain Thanks for that. Didn’t know you already had a thread open.
Agreed that we can just play on, as the result of your ask won’t matter until Germany’s next round (when I assume you’ll be wanting to dive on Karelia again).
OOL? I assume all INF but figured I’d be safe as USA’s turn is right after this.

G13.tsvg the presence of the UK tank ended up mattering not at all. I will let you know when we get the answer though.
@the_good_captain That’s fine. The dice added up over the course of that Rome fight so it’s about time for me to give this one up anyway.
@domanmacgee when you get a chance, I would really like to know what it was like being on the Entente. What stood out? Do you feel there were any blunders on either side? And of course, would you like to play again - perhaps after a brief rest?
Either way, just know that I’m very thankful for you taking the time to stack games of this with me. It has been invaluable.
@the_good_captain I need about a day to analyze where this one went off the rails, actually. Will probably have something relatively thorough ready in a few hours/later tonight.
