@Boldfresh:

yeah i think japan is in some real trouble which has taken a lot of hard work as your pacific game has greatly improved, but it needs to be since Russia already fell.  if i lose a big chunk of the US fleet, i think it’s game over for me.  as i said, it truly was just an accidental switching of the sea zones when typing - it came as a complete surprise to me this morning when you pointed it out.  there is no reason i would ever have wanted to move only a portion of my US fleet to z61, obviously.

just take your time and think it over.

To me the honorable question to be asked is whether you think i intended to send the fleet to z61 then changed my mind in noncom or if you believe it was a simple accident and there was no intent of sending the haw ftrs the extra space to 61.  Since it was 9 ftr and des to each zone, everything was identical except for a 0 or 1 after the 6 :-(

i think you are following my overarching plan here, which was obviously to block in both 61 and 60 and move everything to z50.  should be pretty clear that sending 9 ftr from haw to 61 was not intended, whether japan is in trouble or not.  i assure you, i was not thinking that i was so far ahead that i could afford to sacrifice 9 ftr and 5 acc for absolutely no reason whatsoever…  :-)

Actually, I did think you were going to send the fleet to sz61 because I think I would have myself

I am headed back into the plant for work…so still thinking and running some scenarios

if i would have, i would have sent the UK fleet ahead of it.  that’s what i meant by “part” of my fleet.

[boldfresh]

i don’t think it’s the end of the game if you lose japan by the way.  but at least it won’t be a runaway for the axis.

are you saying you would have sent all of the available US fleet to 61?  if i had intended to do so, i obviously would have taken the battleships to ensure not taking a hit from your destroyer…  :-)

plus, i didn’t want to risk moving too fast toward z62 and risk a full scale attack from the japs (even though moving more slowly builds risk turn after turn against the allies since russia has fallen).  i’ve had some really bad dice against me lately, notably by commander Jenn (some of the best i’ve EVER seen) so was playing conservatively.  anyway, will wait to hear your thoughts rather before speaking further.

After looking at the scenario, I see if you sent all you could into sz61, I would be able to take them out with my bmr, ftrs, subs and dds….and still have 12-14 ftrs left…according to the combat simulator. Which would mean game over. So, that being said, let it stand as is…gives me a built in excuse if I do lose  :-D

whoa!!! 8 hits to the positive!  there’s my excuse if I lose  :-D

[Gargantua]

So what was the result?

Did the navy go to sz61? or you let it slide?

OBG agreed that the navy going to z61 was never really even a possibility.  in a way it could be said he let me off the hook, but on the other hand, it would have been quite a stretch for him to say i intended to move the nave to z61.  he just got 8 extra hits in persia though, so maybe that’s his reward…  :-)
