13L G40 2nd Ed Jennifer (Axis) vs MrRoboto (Allies +15)

  • 19 18

    Well I couldn’t attack SZ6 otherwise :-)

    Assuming my map is correct and there are no blockers between the fleet in the Philippines and SZ 6 (currently) then the submarines stay surfaced for 1 round.  Call me after the first round I want to see what happens. (Let me know the hit tally for first round, please.)

    It’s still your turn with Italy…

  • 18 17 16 11 Mod

    oh, thought you were jumping ahead and doing ANZAC to get it out of the way so I could jump through Italy (no turn really) then Germany/Japan.

    Also, why don’t I have round 1 dice in Karelia?

    You should only have survived with 2 bombers - maybe, and even then, it was close to 50/50.

    Hm, I checked my Marti E-Mails. This seems kinda buggy.

    You are right - the email reads “Round 2”, without any email containing a first round.
    But: In this “Round 2”, both sides still have all units. And the dice results are the ones shown in TripleA as well.

    If you look closely in the TripleA history of that combat, in the very first round of combat, it reads “round 2” there as well…

    No idea why. But it seems like just a bug and nothing to worry about.

    Why would you think I only survive with 2 bombers?

    Hey, sorry for jumping in, but I guess starting with round 2 is normal. Round 1 is afaik reserved for Sub surprise attacks or so or maybe AA fire. So normal land battles start with round 2 in tripleA.

    Cheers,
    Tobias

    Thanks for the help :-)

    Okay, was kinda wondering, with the odds as low as they were, I actually decided to look at the dice. lol.

    Anyway, under the weather past few days, should be able to get a post up by Sunday night.

  • 19 18

    I’ve been waiting for 17 days for your Italian turn now. And Sunday night was 4 days ago, too.

    I’ll take the first bump now

    Yea, this one is pretty much over - we’re not going to either get the Allies out of France by tonight midnight or the 8th VC on the Europe map by then.

    Why don’t we get Gamer to render a decision since obviously I’ll be biased in making one.

  • 19 18

    Well we can let Gamer decide that game for us, although I see no way how the Axis want to win this game.

    Allies win

    You may post the result

  • 19 18

    Ok that was fast :-)
    Thanks gamer.

    And thx Jen for the game.

    Allies were out of Scandinavia in the next 3 rounds and out of Southern Europe in the next 4 rounds.  Then it is just a matter of clearing out France.  The only question is whether or not Tokyo would be reduced to cinders before the Germans could make it so Italy can rebuild.  There’s just nothing the allies could do to stop either of those two actions from succeeding.

  • 19 18

    I highly doubt you can push me out of Scandinavia and Southern Europe both.
    And even if you could, you’d never ever conquer Egypt for a European win.

    But since you sound so confident, I’d love to play for 3-4 more rounds just for the fun. If that’s okay for you.
    In this case, it’s your turn with Italy :-)
