Scramble to Denmark?

AA will not allow to edit the tac now. Will have to do this after the NCM.

[aequitas-et-veritas]

@ArtofWar1947 No scramble to Denmark.

[ArtofWar1947]

@aequitas-et-veritas

AA will not allow US to move 8 tanks and 4 MIs to Timguska. Will fight this battle on the Forum.

Apparently, there was only 1 kami.

Rolling for the other two kamis to see if there should have been an additional hits.

Let me know how you want to handle this. I can completely redo the battle or make an adjustment you feel would be fair.

[ArtofWar1947]

@aequitas-et-veritas

Here’s the US 28 turn as it stands now.

Two Kamikazees on your DD, please.

In 5 hours from this post, I will go ahead and redo the battle in SZ 6, unless you can see a fairer way to correct my mistake.

[aequitas-et-veritas]

@ArtofWar1947 what exactly went wrong in your opinion??

[ArtofWar1947]

@aequitas-et-veritas

The program asked on what ship to attack with a kami. I choose DD. In the past, the same question was asked for each kami. This did not happen, and I assumed that the 3 available kamis would each attack a DD. Without Marti emails, I could understand was that the kami assault resulted in no hits. So, I preceded. I did not realize that 2 available kamis were not used until I read the attack summary in History and the Turn Summary.

[ArtofWar1947]

@aequitas-et-veritas

An additional hit by the Kamis would have cost the additional loss of one to four US subs. With no more Axis surface ships, the remaining US subs are essentially useless any way. If you wish to accept the outcome of the original battle, Japan will have 2 kamis to defend against the attack of its DD in SZ 7 by ANZAC. If you prefer, I will refight the sea battle this afternoon.

[aequitas-et-veritas]

Please redo the Battle. Also redo the battle of Timguska.
It was not shown in the history tab and you accidently edited more units there then there could possibly move there.

[ArtofWar1947]

@aequitas-et-veritas

Will redo SZ 6 battle.

There were 9 tanks and 5 MI in Yenisey. 8 tanks and 4 MI attacked Timguska. This battle had to be rolled on the Forum, because the AA program would not allow these units to advance (see screen shot of our games’ thread). TheUS inflicted 4 hits and only 2 were needed; the Germans scored 1 hit. I decided to reinforce with the remaining tank and MI. You are correct, though,there should be 4, not 5 MI. I will edit in theis corrtection.

Kamis got 2 hots of 3. US lost all ships and 2 fighters.

Scramble to SZ 116 and/or intercept SBR on Iraq?

[aequitas-et-veritas]

There were 9 tanks and 5 MI in Yenisey. 8 tanks and 4 MI attacked Timguska.

No, there were only 1x US Mech and 2x US Armor in Yenisey.
The others, 4x US Mech and 7x US Armor where in Buryatia unable to reach Evinkinsksy or Timguska at all.
If you look at the Game History wich you can find in the Top Tab or you Press Ctrl+H you can look it all up. This Turn and also the Previous Turns.

If you look up Round 27 end of US Turn, you will see that exact these Units located as and in Numbers as described by me here (see above) have been there to the Start of Round 28 US. Therefore they can not participate in the battle in Timguska.
Only 1x US Mech along with 2x US Armor.

Please redo this battle only if you still desire to attack Timguska, but with these units only. Thank you.

As for your scramble and intercept request.
No and No

It is unnecessary to redo the Timguska battle. If you would look back on our game thread, you can see, 8 (of 9) US tanks and 4 (of 5) US MI moved from Yenisey during the US28 CM to attack 2 German infantry:

Timguska battle
8 US tanks [dice 8d6<=3]
4 US MI [dice 4d6<=2]
2 German inf [dice 2d6<=2]

The US scored 4 hits, and the Germans scored 1 hit.

This left 8 US tanks and 3 US MI in Timguska after the battle. During the US28 NCM, the 1 US tank and 1 US MI held back Yenisey advanced to reinforce Timguska for a total of 9 US tanks and 4 US MI (as the map now shows).
