Airborne Attack Move - British

[atease]

Ok so I’m attacking Sea zone 19 and it prompts kamikaze attacks, but I am not declaring amphibious assault.

Rule says:
If an Allied player attacks Japanese units or declares an amphibious assault from one of these sea zones, the Japanese player can announce at the beginning of the Conduct Combat phase that he or she intends to launch one or more kamikaze strikes.

Is this a TripleA mistake? I believe it is. In any case, let me know what you think and give me your OOL :) thanks.

I think it’s being handled correctly, you’re attacking my ships, so that’s an “attack on Japanese Units”.

if you want to rethink the battle, that’s fine with me.  The odds calculator says its a doomed battle for you :)

I’ll take 4 kam on the BB, and OOL will be soak BB, SS, DD, CV, BB, planes.  The only exception to that list is that if for some reason not all of your subs are dead, I don’t want my last DD gone.

Wow how did I not see the “or”. 2nd grade reading skills. sigh. I’ll redo my moves then, ignore previous post.

I’m afraid I see no Axis road to victory at this point and will surrender.  Really enjoyed the game, well played.

[atease]

Well played to you too sir. I would love a rematch but given my health and the fact that I have 8 other games going-on will you take a rain check? You were one of my favourite player to play against, so I will PM you in the future when I have other spots open.

I’ll post the results.

Yep, no problem we can have another game later in the season.  Good luck in your other games.  I already posted the result
