  • @crockett36 Japan attacks Wake Island SZ and the submarines scored (3) ‘surprise strike’ hits. How would you like them allocated?

    The transport, the cv and the battleship. It’s my first time playing in a while so nothing to lose. I’m going to play this sub strategy to the end. Especially since there is no scramble. Luck has favored you so far, but she is a fickle wench.


  • @crockett36 unreal - shaking my head. Anyway, casualty selection? Survive two submarines?

  • @the_good_captain no not with that luck. Leave two planes.

  • 2025 2024 '23 '22 '19 '18

    If you haven’t pulled the trigger. Keep the subs. I want that navy

  • 2025 2024 '23 '22 '19 '18

    Dying to know how many ships I’m taking with me


  • @crockett36 me too. It will be 2 hours before I’m home and in front of the active screen.

    Charlie Brown “Ahhhhg!”


  • @crockett36 USA scored 5 hits (+1 over par with what was left) - Japanese will retreat a single submarine to the Japanese sea zone during this phase.

    The USA can now withdraw some or all of its subs into any vacant or friendly adjacent sea zone.

    Would you like to do so? (This is in accordance with the 2nd Edition rules - TripleA does not represent this function correctly but its simple to use the EDIT mode)

    J4.tsvg Yes, that was a hot roll for the IJN, no argument with that. However, the total unit value of the board is still pro-Allies by 20 IPC and the economy is +22 pro-Allies - and that’s not even factoring in the upcoming USA turn. All that to say, don’t let the cut on your lip bother you - just keep swinging. =)


  • @crockett36 did you take USA/Russia’s turns? I thought I saw some dice get rolled - a battle in Novosibirsk.
