(I bring it up now, because it will make a big difference to Italy’s turn)

@wheatbeer:

I’m guessing you’re not aware Germany can sink the US transports in SZ91.

Actually, i’m aware of this technique, i’m even using it myself when i can…
I just didn’t pay enough attention to it in this position. Just checked that Italy couldn’t make any landing spot for Germany and that’s all. So i deserve to have all my transports sunk, just as you deserved to have the Japan fleet sunk because you didn’t doublecheck the odds.

[wheatbeer]

Now that I think about it some more … France could move a cruiser to SZ91 and reduce Germany’s odds of sinking the US transports to 50% … I probably shouldn’t have said anything  :lol:

[wheatbeer]

Actually, that makes only a 33% chance to sink both the cruisers and the transports.

[Axisplaya]

lol…you can be sure that the french cruiser will end up there !!

:-D

one sec

[wheatbeer]

Western Europe is crazy complex because we have 4-5 powers at work.

[wheatbeer]

Alright, this is the same as the map I just posted except that I also NCM’d 2 fighters from SITA to Western Germany.

[wheatbeer]

And that last is final.  I’m not especially happy with it, but I will drive myself crazy running the odds on 1-2 punch battles all over Western Europe and trying to defend everywhere.

I assumed you would want a UK fighter survivor on SFR rather than a French fighter, but please change if I was wrong.

[Axisplaya]

UK fgt is fine.

I clicked on done, and then on Post turn summary just after, it resulted in a bug…

Here is a map. If you got a bug and can’t post your turn, i’ll redo Russia

[wheatbeer]

It seems to be fine.

[wheatbeer]

When I used EDIT to adjust Italian NCM on their last turn I accidentally removed fighters and added them back as strategic bombers (the Italian ones don’t look strategic bomber-y enough!).  I can fix that on Japan’s turn, but can I assume their being on the map erroneously did not affect ANZAC, French, or Russian decisions?
