XDAP03 Norse elite vs. TeamBoldDutch

[boldfresh]

I don’t really agree with the daak rules on this issue.  However, I am willing to accept them and continue.

To use an extreme example to illustrate a point, say I were to attack a large fleet with OVERWHELMING odds, but one of the fighters I took to the battle was not legal.  And let’s say, for sake of this illustration, that the fleet defended incredibly and wiped out my entire attacking force.  Using this daak rule, the defender would be treated terribly unfairly since he just got the 1 in 1000 result of an incredible defense, only to have it canceled because of the opponent’s error of bringing an illegal aircraft, when the opponent would have done the battle even without the additional fighter.  At the very least, I think the minister of defense should be allowed to rule on more than just the “exception” clause, because in an example such as this, that rule clearly gives a wrong ruling.

[Bjergmose]

I agree. But the rules should be made from any (normal) situation, not the 1 in a million  :-D

If the player making the wrong move, then is killed one-in-a-million-style, is the one demanding rerolls ´cos he took an xtra fighter then I would be suspicious too.  :-o

[boldfresh]

Ok, I think we are good to proceed, but unfortunately, I am probably too busy today to put my master plan together (the plan to CRUSH germany, that is).  In addition, that dutch guy is also on holiday and so our nefarious coordination efforts have not been able to occur.

May post today, but don’t plan on it.  Should be able to post on Monday if I hear from that dutch guy.

[boldfresh]

looks like i may have time to post!  let’s see.

[boldfresh]

Need to confirm a rules issue related to combat/noncombat/transporting before I proceed with russia.  I think tripleA is handling something incorrectly and want to clear it up before we proceed.  I have sent a message to the rules experts.

[Ghostglider]

You can go ahead with Anzac/france maybe?

[boldfresh]

Here is the official anzac/france map.

anzac bought inf, mech, aa

[boldfresh]

There will be a morning r6 i believe.

[Bjergmose]

Not sure how much money anzac had. Not 23 as stated.
14 minus a possible 5 convoy disruption.

[boldfresh]

i didn’t correct the anzac cash.  they started with 12 and earned 14 and 3 were lost to blockades giving them a total of 11.

so please reduce the japan cash by 12 to 83.

[boldfresh]

the 12 were spent on inf, mech, aa leaving 0 remainder.

[boldfresh]

i ran that battle many times in local - that was the best result i’ve seen…  and the convoy disruption whiffed too.  very nice japan turn.

[Bjergmose]

Ok. So Japan has 83 ipc right  :?
