Mistergreen (Allies) vs AlexGreat (Axis), G40 Final Alpha, TripleA, NT

  • '17 '16 '15 '12

    Just for clarification, I moved the sub in combat phase to a clear SZ, but decided later that I actually would want the sub to stay where it is. I started in a combat SZ, but since no hostile DD I would have submerged anyway. If there is a problem with this rules understanding, pls let me know.

  • '17 '16 '15 '12

    A very messy turn, sorry in advance. The details:

    • Clicked “done” instead of “post”, so file attached
    • Changed my builds that were intended for Japan / Manchuria SZ. All of them not depending on previous combat results (no relevant naval units in the region battled), just realized midway through turn that my initial build is suicide and would depend on a lot of kamikaze hitting. In particular, I changed 9 subs and one DD (62) to AC, BB, DD (SZ 36), 2 subs (SZ 19) and additional two inf for Japan. For a total of the same 62.
    • Forgot moving the Manchuria mobile units in non-combat
    • The fighter that started in Kweichow (or adjacent, cant remember, histoy shows) went to SZ 36

    Everything should be in order, I did my best to clear the mess without changing the battle results by starting the turn anwew, which would be unacceptable, independently of the results.

    If you find anything that is amiss, pls let me know and clear before you do allies. Sorry again.


  • No problem.  :-)

  • I assumed you did not want to scramble in sz112. If you wanted to please fight the scramble battle and the new Denmark in the forum and edit in the result.

    I would like to add my “idle” British fighter to the battle, the one I ncm nwy > uk.
    So forum battles would be:
    sz112: dd, 3 cc, fig vs fig
    den: 2 inf, fig vs inf

    MrGreen, I should have been allowed to make Kamikaze strikes against your fleet since you made an amphib invasion out of SZ 6. Do you agree, or is there a reason the programe did not come up with the option?

    In any case, I’d like to use three strikes on each of your ACs. One hit on any given AC would damage it and drown the two fighters, two hits would destroy it.

    Pls let me know your opinion.

    Sry about my bomber, ended up in Gib instead of the SZ against the sub (and was duly shot down by your AA). I edited it back in S-Italy, fighters managed the sub, so no harm done by leaving it out of the fight.

    Pls have a look at my kamikaze post above before continuing!

    If you look at the turn report in the forum or in the history in triplea you will notice that only my transport was used to deliver my troops to Korea. I moved the rest of my fleet in during ncm when they are safe from kamikaze.

    No worries.  :-)

  • '17 '16 '15 '12

    although I doubt that the Japanese would have agreed with Larry’s rule. Hey, I dont like the looks of this fleet right next to the homeland … but its the US non-combat phase, so lets wave a few flags instead.

    Hostile ships should be susceptible to the 6 kamikaze any time, if you ask me. Larry doesnt, thats for sure ;)


  • It’s a abstact game so I figure it has more to do with gameplay than realism.  :-)

  • '17 '16 '15 '12

    Of course thats the reason, and a game needs a mechanism. But in this specific example I dont see an endangerment of the rules in general or a breakdown of the system. Kamikaze  has been introduced to the game, its unique, and it could easily follow unique rules. Wouldnt complicate the game at all: Enter those SZs and face strikes, end of story. You probably do not often have added realism and game play that did not become more complex together. Problem is, of course, you start here, and then one thing after another gets questioned.


  • It does not have to be that it makes things to complicated either. It could be about balance.

    good point!
