Ok, Axisplaya, I’m back.

Since this is my first game, please check the map over. I think I have everything correct.

Since I bought a CV, one fighter and one tactical stayed in sz 112.  The rest landed in Wgr.  From what I have seen in other games non-combat moves are often denoted as such:

NCM:  per map

If you ever have an issue with something I’ve done, please feel free to bring it up.  Most likely it will be my fault as I am learning to use battlemap.  I don’t know if a seasoned pro such as yourself remembers, but first learning to use this program and having to type everything out can be time consuming and exasperating also!

Don’t worry man, everyone makes mistakes. I can’t remember a game that i completed without doing any mistake (moves, rules, typing…).

NCM per map are fine, excepted in the pacific theater : when there will be multiple zone combats involving planes swapping, airbases, Carrier movements etc…i will ask for all planes NCM typed because it is VERY easy to make a mistake in those situations.

Also, i would suggest that you declare your loss at the end of each battle BEFORE rolling the next one if possible.

You can use this : twlo…, cwlo…, cwol and twol.

Taken with loss of …(twlo)
Cleared with loss of …(cwlo)
Taken without loss (twol)
Cleared without loss (cwol)

So at the end of each battle, you can write the conclusion BEFORE you get to roll the next one. Exemple : Nov twlo 4inf, 1art.

[gsh34]

Thank you for giving me the abbreviations and what they mean.  I had seen them before when checking out other people’s threads but I had no idea what they meant.  I’ll try my best to not mix them up when I type them out.

I have no problem with typing out tricky NCM.  I would expect that to be minimum one does.

Ok, back to the game.

Question, is it customary for a person to post their combat movement map before rolling?  If it is, I forgot to do that.

Uh oh…… :-o

The Kill America strat then…

that will be my 2nd time i have to deal with that…

[gsh34]

Who knows, play your cards correctly and maybe I’ll have to call it off.

[gsh34]

You don’t have to do it now unless you are comfortable with it, but I politely ask if at the end of our game you could steer me in the direction of the other KAF game you played.  I put a lot thought into this and I am really curious to see some real game experience to know if there is anything to this strategy or not.

[Axisplaya]

Can tell you i didn’t see it coming at all 1st time and had a very hard time stoping it.
But it was much less powerful than your set of moves. 1st time i play against K America First when it is declared from the start.
I might sleep on that position before i post. Have to think about it.

[gsh34]

Sleep well my kind opponent.  I will look forward to your moves when ever you decide them.
