I’m attacking your fleet. Which units do you wish to take down?

[innohub]

Please take the naval force in the following order:

Battleship takes 1 hit
Russian Submarine
British Submarine
American Submarine
3 Destroyers
2 Carriers

that takes the 9 hits.

[JEB]

In the next round I hit 8. Which units do you want to remove?

[innohub]

Please take destroyer, all carriers, 1 cruiser, and start with fighters.  Save the battleship for last.

That leaves 1 battleship, 7 fighters remaining.

Thanks,

[JEB]

Hi, I wasn’t aware that fighters are moved to a nearby island if you retreat and there is no carrier for them. How is this rule exactly? They are forced to land on land if there is a friendly territory next to the sea zone, otherwise they are lost?

With this in mind, I would like to make an edit on the units I removed in the last round, if it is ok with you.

[innohub]

I forgot to press post so I copy the history here…

@JEB:

Hi, I wasn’t aware that fighters are moved to a nearby island if you retreat and there is no carrier for them. How is this rule exactly? They are forced to land on land if there is a friendly territory next to the sea zone, otherwise they are lost?

With this in mind, I would like to make an edit on the units I removed in the last round, if it is ok with you.

I just saw this after posting the last reply.

Yes your guess is right.  Basically if there is no carrier to land, the fighters will be allowed to land in a nearest place (no more than 1 space).  For example, in our case the fighters are landed at the island since it is 1 space from the original place.  If there is no legal landing spot (within 1 space distance), the fighters are lost.  Another example is there is a carrier in a sea zone that is next to the fighting sea zone.  in this case fighters can land in this carrier too because it is 1 space distance.

Please feel free to edit the units - no problem at all.

[JEB]

Actually the change I had in mind is to let 2 more fighters and a carrier survive instead of the bombers and the cruiser. But this would have done little difference with your plane onslaught. Instead the attack in the first place was a mistake, in the light of this rule. Well, at least I know that now for next time :)

In fact I think I will trow in the towel here already. Now it’s just an arm’s race between japan and the US, which Japan impossibly can win. Germany’s situation is not much better either… I prefer to start over and hopefully get a bit better start!

[innohub]

Sure.  Let starts a new game.  :lol:  Which side would you like to play?

[JEB]

I choose the axis (as usual lol). I feel I need revenge on this map first before I switch side!

[innohub]

You will have good chance to get revenge… :-D  I will start one soon.
