that’s how it’s gone all game.  rest of the turn to come after i recover from the latest beating.

[RisingDragon]

ha, well, i threw the extra inf in there to make it a little dangerous…

if you want to start over with a new game that’s cool.  when italy is making about as much as the uk and russia combined, you know it’s pretty bleak for the allies.

[LuckyLindy]

yes it was more dangerous but I think I was still favored to take BRA without losing a fighter.  We can start another game if you like but I want to play this one a little further.  Your first German turn has been too difficult to recover from, and the dice have been less than kind to me it seems.

If you want to play a straight rematch I am good with that, same bid placement.  You can do Germany 1 at your leisure.  Hopefully it is a little less back_breaking next time…  :-(

[RisingDragon]

ok, let’s play on…and I’ll take u up on game #2.  perhaps i’ll have a crack at the allies if we do a #3

[LuckyLindy]

BRA taken with fighter, not controllec

Noncombat Moves
fighter from BRA to Z18
fighter from Z56 to ECA
fighter from Z56, 2 fighters from WUS to Z18
2 submarines, 2 destroyers, 2 ac from Z20 to Z18
4 destroyers, ac from Z10 to Z18
fighter from HAW to ECA
2 infantry, AA gun, bomber from WCA to ECA
ac from Z56 to Z20
2 fighters from BEL to RUS
bomber from FRA to ECA

Mobilization
2 infantry, fighter in EUS
infantry in WUS
transport, 3 submarines in Z10

**Income **
35 + 10 NO + 1 saved = 46

I’m probably done for anyway, but not liberating BRA AND losing a fighter there was just MURDER!  Please do not get another incredible German opening in game 2!!  :-)

Hey RD, I just started another game with a new apponent so I now have like 7 games going.  I think we better just play this one out before we start a game 2 or so many games will probably start to confuse me.  :?

Cheers

The fighter you attacked z4 with can’t land can it?  Please explain.

[RisingDragon]

the ss attack on z6 is an attempt to clear it, in theory allowing an ac to go to z3 for pickup in the event of a successful attack.

fr pg14 of manual: A fighter can move its full four spaces to attack instead of saving movement, but only if a carrier could be there by the conclusion of the Mobilize New Units phase. (See Unit Profi les: Air Units, pg. 26.)

Looks like you are right, and I was not aware of that.  Yet another setback, and this time only I am to blame.

Seems like a silly rule but ok.  Chances of a carrier being able to ACTUALLY be in z3 for the fighter to land on were very small, but a rule is a rule, live and learn right?

[RisingDragon]

guess so, sorry about that, was done to me before which is how i know.  i don’t think you are in a position to use those trannies soon anyway, and i had to sacrifice both a ftr and ss.  you might also have had to split your navy or move it which would have impacted a lot of downstream moves like your attempt to merge navies

[LuckyLindy]

If I had known this was possible, I would have sent only two or maybe even one transport to Z4 instead of 3.
