@VictoryFirst

So I think that an inactive Army can receive outside support. I have 4 Tacs and 3 Ftrs, so the extra Tac can support one of the Panzers in the inactive Army ?

If not I’ll edit in a non supporting Tac, although it’s been getting shot down in tests by AA lol

Since I see you’re on @The-Captain is the above correct ? I’ll have an active Pnzr Army in the AG and then an inactive one. Can the inactive receive outside support ?

Or would I have to move it outside the AG ? Disband it if necessary ?

Thanks

VictoryFirst

@barnee

I think a Tac can be supported by a panzer in an inactive army. Even if not, you can always dismantle the inactive army and it wouldn’t change the battle at all. An inactive army effectively functions as a bunch of combat units without any special abilities.

barnee

@VictoryFirst

yea I pulled 2nd Pnzr out of AG Center and reformed it. So I got a Pnzr outside of the AG now.

Be good for one shot if AA doen’t get him lol

barnee

@VictoryFirst

That didn’t work out too bad in edit actually. Sometimes you have to change what triplea picks anyway. Just have to be deliberate about it and double check your numbers.

So it came down to losing your Elite or a Ftr. I kept the Elite. If it comes up, which would you prefer ?

@barnee

I think it will depend on how the battle unfolds what my OOL will be. I would want to save the Tank Army above everything, but I also want to save my Air Force as best as possible. Could you each round post a screenshot of the battle so that I can choose my casualties?

VictoryFirst

So yeah if it’s this specific scenario, I would have chosen the Elite as a casualty, but that might be different in other situations.

barnee

@VictoryFirst

yea you had Ftrs and a Elite left. So 2 @2 or 1 @4 I will kill Elite if it comes up.

OK going for real. I’ll post a save after every battle rd. There weren’t really any hard decisions I didn’t think. Keep the Tank Armies alive as long as possible.

Hopefully triplea gets the Lobby fixed and we can jump on there in the future. I know there working on it, but it’s been fckd for a long time :)
