  • Axisplaya,

    I think we had a problem come up about when the US delclares war and convoy raiding.  The US declares war at the start of Collect income phase on US 3.  Then, convoy raiding happens.  I have never before had Axis ships in US waters at this time, but I raided you for 3 ipc (two ipc in z10 and one ipc in z 26).  If you would have only done a DOW on Germany and Italy, then you could’ve avoided the convoy raiding.  I’m ok if you want to change your DOW to reflect that so you can keep the 3 ipc.  If not, then I think the convoy raids would have happened.

    No big deal either way.

    @gsh34:

    Axisplaya,

    I think we had a problem come up about when the US delclares war and convoy raiding.  The US declares war at the start of Collect income phase on US 3.  Then, convoy raiding happens.  I have never before had Axis ships in US waters at this time, but I raided you for 3 ipc (two ipc in z10 and one ipc in z 26).  If you would have only done a DOW on Germany and Italy, then you could’ve avoided the convoy raiding.  I’m ok if you want to change your DOW to reflect that so you can keep the 3 ipc.  If not, then I think the convoy raids would have happened.

    No big deal either way.

    Well, to be honest, i would say that i just didn’t think of it at all when i played….So just remove 3 IPC from US income on the IPC chart.

    But you’re completely right, that was a stupid mistake from my part to DOW Japan. It costed me 3 IPC.


  • NCM for Italy, round 3

    2 DD z97 > z96
    1 tank Gre > Yugo
    2 inf, 2 art Nita > Yugo
    4 inf Alg > Mor
    1 tank Tob > Alx
    1 fig, 1 tac z114 > Ger

    Just a note:  my Italian transport still has the German infantry on it.

    Placement:
    1 CV, 1 DD z97
    1 art Nita

    Dang!  I just realized that with your Russian bomber you can hit Germany with a Strategic bombing raid.  I guess I should have lost the Italian tactical bomber and kept the fighter so I had two interceptors to defend with.  Oh well…

    Collect income:
    19 territories + 15 NOs = 34 ipc

    Since France moves are done, you can go with Germany 4 (we’ll see some action i guess  :-) )


  • Sorry for the delay.  I knew that France had gone.  I just couldn’t fit the German turn in before I had to go to bed last night.  I should have given you the courtesy of that information.  Sorry about that.

    Germany, round 4 (55ipc)

    Conclusion of Operation Sealion (the only thing I think I can relish as having gone well….although I probably shouldn’t be saying before rolling dice!)

    Purchase:
    1 fig, 15 infantry

    Combat:
    2 SS, 1 tac, 1 DD z111 > z125 (3 move remain for tac)
    10 inf, 3 art, 8 tank Sco > UK
    1 inf Sco > Eire
    6 TT z 111 > z112 (load 12 inf from Wgr) > z110 (offload infantry into UK)
    1 sbr, 1 tac Alg > Gib (strategic bombing raid on the Naval Base)
    2 tac Alg > Gib (strategic bombing raid on Air Base)

    Well, I think that is everything…


  • Per rules, strategic bombing raids come first, then amphibious assaults, then everything else.  One thing that I am uncertain about is when I have my sbr and tac bombing the same facility, do I roll separate AA gun fire so that the strategic bomber has a better chance of getting hit?  This I don’t know.  So, I will say that the first dice is for my sbr.  Then I will ask this question in the faq thread.  If I can choose, we can go back and amend my casualty and the damage to the facility if needed (simply add +2 to what ever the tac would roll in this case)

    SBR of Gib Naval base: 1 strategic bomber, 1 tactical bomber

    Defending AA gun fire:
    DiceRolls: 2@1; Total Hits: 02@1: (2, 2)

    SBR of Gib Air Base:  2 tactical bombers

    Defending AA gun fire:
    DiceRolls: 2@1; Total Hits: 02@1: (4, 5)


  • OK, no AA hits.

    I am not sure how to roll for SBRs since they don’t “hit” on a specific number so I will simply roll two dice for each.  For the Naval Base, my first die roll will represent my strategic bomber and have +2 added to it.

    SBR of Gib Naval Base:
    DiceRolls: 2@6; Total Hits: 22@6: (6, 5)

    SBR of Gib Air Base:
    DiceRolls: 2@6; Total Hits: 22@6: (2, 2)


  • Gibraltar Naval Base:
    Max damage of 6 taken

    Gibraltar Air Base:
    4 damage taken

    I will mark this on the map, but if you have a chance, please double check it to make sure I depicted it correctly.  This is my first time marking SBR damage and I don’t know if I will be doing it correctly.


  • Ok, on to the amphibious assault…

    Battle for UK:

    attacker: 22 inf, 3 art, 8 tank
    DiceRolls: 19@1 6@2 8@3; Total Hits: 1219@1: (5, 3, 3, 6, 4, 1, 1, 5, 5, 1, 4, 2, 4, 3, 4, 1, 1, 3, 5)6@2: (6, 4, 1, 3, 1, 6)8@3: (1, 4, 5, 2, 1, 3, 1, 4)

    defender: 21 inf, 1 art, 1 tank

  • Way below average for your rolling and above average for mine.  I better watch out in some other big battle for the dice to even out….

    Collect Income:
    49 territories + 10 NOs (Norway/Denmark/Sweden + London) + 29 UK Europe money = 88 ipc

    Just a reminder for you (and an explanation for why I did it), with London captured, you are unable to repair the naval or air base in Gibraltar and they will remain incapacitated.

    Only 4 hits for my 1st rd defense in London…never seen that…
    So far in this game, i’ve been shooting way below odds while you’re hitting better than odds…

    Now this has to stop quickly or the game will be short…

    Okay…
