13L G40.2 - Omega1759 (allies+9) vs Fortress (axis)

[Omega1759]

Slowly grinding down the IJN… Bold move in Alaska

I won’t play China and UK until later tonight or tomorrow morning (I feel better about UK Pacific and China now, I was worried that all these transports were headed to Calcutta) since I have a Holiday gathering

[Omega1759]

BTW, I hope you don’t mind my edit to the Cruiser that was left behind in 106, forgot to move that before placing.

Japan relieved the pressure the US is applying to Europe, but Japan’s position deteriorated with the loss of 2 DD and 5 out of 6 transports.

Forgot to drop the 2 infantries in Normandy during my combat move (which was my intent from the beginning) sorry for messing that up (how many of these freebies I get?). Repeat of Dieppe!

The Brits had a good turn (although most battles were easy), I could have lost 2 units in 98.

[Fortress]

haha - I’m right there with you. I DOWed with Italy, invaded USSR, undid the move while I changed my mind on the German move, and then forgot to reinvade.  :-D

“Which leads me to my next point. Kids, drugs are bad.”

@Fortress:

haha - I’m right there with you. I DOWed with Italy, invaded USSR, undid the move while I changed my mind on the German move, and then forgot to reinvade.  :-D

“Which leads me to my next point. Kids, drugs are bad.”

Allright, let me see!

[Fortress]

It makes for a much friendlier game when the little oopsies aren’t a big deal.  :-D

[Omega1759]

We may need to change the placement again if I read the rules correctly. It’s the first time I saw planes land on a friendly neutral territory annexed during the current turn, so I went to inform myself.

Page 22 of the second edition rulebook says "Air units can move into any territory that was friendly (but not friendly neutral) at the start of the current turn.

Note that the units in Irak can get wiped out by 6 infantry, 2 artillery, 1 figther, 1 tac and 1 bomber (even with the planes landing there this favors the Brits).

If you agree with my interpretation of the rules, you can redo your turn or let me know where you want the planes to be.

Yes, you’ll note that I did not offload American troops off Queensland, “oopsie”

[Fortress]

Crap, you’re right. I stepped in it. Boy, I’ve messed up a ton of stuff. I’m not particularly impressed with how I’ve played this game.

Let’s… keep the land move the same and land all three planes in Greece, please.

J1 makes for a really tricky game doesn’t? Gives initiative to the Allies in many respect. Last time I declared war J1, I got wacked (I don’t understand why the strategy is so popular).

Thanks, I’ll move the planes over and do Anzac / France shortly.

I think I might continue doing it. In retrospect, I would’ve gone 10I on G1. I didn’t decide I was gonna J1 until the last minute, though. Oh well. Live and learn. Placing 26 units G2 was kinda neat, though - not gonna lie. And it’s totally changed how I’m going to start playing Germany.

I’ll have you know that the French navy was indispensible. In the 1700’s…  :wink:
