I am a little confused by the battle in 42.

you come in with 2dd, 2cc, 1cv, 2ftr

I get 5 hits, so I think you either have to have a damaged CV, which would splash your ftrs, or you have to have 1 more ftr gone…

basically with 5 hits against 7 units with 1 extra hit point you either have a undamaged cv with one other unit or a damaged cv with 2 other units, but that are not ftrs…

[Spoox]

you seem to be right, my mistake sorry. I can’t post a new map before tonight because I’m at work and dont have abatllemap in here but I think keeping the cruisers and destroying the cv + fighters will have the same correct effect on the fight and end result. Can you check?

[Karl7]

Yes, I think that would have the same effect.

I post a correct map.

I think I could have scrambled during the fight for Novgorod, and that is what I will do since there is only 1 cruiser accompanying your transports.

[Karl7]

Hm, I thought you had to have a naval combat to to scramble, but I see the rules allow it even to resists amphib assault.  My mistake.

Well that changes everything. I can just redo Germany with that understanding.

[Spoox]

that changes alot indeed :)
You can send other naval units along the TT and CA I think, but even then it would be a very risky fight since my air can only shoot at your surface ships, and you can send planes with them as well, but then they can’t participate in the fight for Nov itself of course.
Either is fine for me: you do the German turn completely again or if you want to rearrange the fight for z115/Nov only, then that’s also fine for me, we all make mistakes.

[Karl7]

Ok, I will have to get back to it probably tonight as in crunch at work.

[Karl7]

ok,let me see

The scramble rule has got some problems.  As I read it, I can only move units into combat situations on cm, meaning I cannot move air units into 115 to counter your anticipated counter attack…… I don’t even think I can move my cv into 115.  Blah, that’s silly.  Given that, there is no way I’d move a cc, dd vs 2ftr, tacb.

Russia turn 5

–>Purchase & repair

purchase: 1 Fig (10) + 2 ARM (12) + 6 INF (18) = 40

–>Combat movement

z114: 1 SS --> z115
Rus: 1 Fig --> z115 (land Nov)
Nov: 2 Fig, 2 TacB --> z115 (land Rus)

According to the rules, my planes cannot hit your SS because I do not have a DD present in the sz, and your SS can’t hit my planes anyways. Now I’m not sure what happens when my SS rolls a successful hit. Does it hit your SS or does it hit a surface warship? I think it hits a surface ship because it can’t “see” the SS without a DD, no?

Fin: 5 INF, 2 ART --> Nor
Bes: 1 INF, 1 ART --> Rom
Npr: 1 ARM --> Cpr (walk in), blitz back to Npr

[Karl7]

no, my ss can choose to be hit by your ss.  If you have no dd, it may hide but does not have too.  In this context my ss’s will defend.

[Spoox]
