well, normandy wasn’t as good as i had hoped, but the job got done and now the western front is (momentarily at least) pacified.

i did get cheated out of cauc  :cry:

as for japan, i’ve lost significant ground, but i think i like my position still. the allies are getting stretched pretty darn thin….i mean, not only is the US supply line to java quite long, but all that could be spared for it last turn was a dd (due to the air base purchases). i imagine you’re gonna feel the effects of that soon here.

this is a tough one i must say. your economy is clearly in better shape at this point.

Japan is going to have lost a decent chunk of its economy, I think you’ll feel that harder than US skipping one turn in the Pacific. Plus, depending on what you do, Russia might get its income back in the high 20s. The economy war was a close one, but it seems like the Allies ended up having the advantage in the end. Let’s see if the TUV loss will let Axis get it back.

On another note, are you sure that you are allowed to load units on tps that participated in combat?

[axis-dominion]

i believe i can, but feel free to double check with gamer

and even if i couldn’t, then i’d simply have moved them out of combat during cm, and then back to 112 after during ncm to load up. so it ends up being the same

yea i hear ya on the economic side axis have fallen behind, but idk, i’m really liking my military strength and position. we’ll have to see.

I learned in my game with bmnielsen that you can’t move a non air unit in both phases, so if you want the tps in 112 they would need to participate in combat. I’ll post the question.

[axis-dominion]

ok so it’s confirmed to be true that i can’t load in ncm. total deal breaker for me. this one really takes the cake for being an absolutely stupid loophole. had i known this was the case, i would NOT have bought the tps! obviously too late to take that back….now i’m stuck with totally useless tps. i’d have to first tuck back inside to 114 or 115 just to be able to start using them, and of course i’d have to protect them while also preventing you from simply locking me inside via a denmark take. a simple and cheap dd drop from norway renders my all of my amphib threats null. i can’t believe they’d allow such a rule. i’m totally turned off from this game because of this, and won’t even consider playing this game again with this rule as is. i’m ok with a dd drop to prevent an amphib assault–it can be a handy delay tactic–but to be able to continue rendering the tps useless so long as they remain in the sz is just too much.

i can ask someone if they’d agree to house rule this, before a game starts, but i don’t feel good about asking mid-way through.

i don’t see a way out, so i’m just going to concede.

[axis-dominion]

i’m sad about this, as it totally ruined a really fun game. i guess that’s what bad loophole rules can do.

[Adam514]

Like I said in the thread, we can continue the game allowing loadings like this (wouldn’t be fun to end the game in such a way), but if you were to ask me if we could house rule it in our next game I would try to convince you that it isn’t necessary and I probably wouldn’t agree to it unfortunately. In this game you feel the effects of it since you bought a fleet and your Italian airforce isn’t strong enough to overcome a dd with scramble protection, but if you know the rule beforehand you can either invest more to keep Norway or not invest in a fleet at all after Norway is taken.

When I was thinking about what you will use that fleet for (if loading was indeed illegal), I thought you would use it to give your slow units movement to either go against Russia or land in Finland and gradually take Norway back.

sorry for the delay, i really had to step away from a&a for a bit. i can’t tell you enough how much i dislike this rule. in fact i think it’s the worst of the quirky loopholey rules. i call it a loophole because i really don’t think or can’t believe the designers meant for the rule to lead to this kind of absurdity, in situations like this; i.e., they wanted to ensure that you could still build and place ships even if the sz was occupied, to give you a chance to fight back and regain it. but i don’t think they meant it to be where one could just drop a single, cheap dd into a substantial enemy naval force and completely disable their transports, and worse than that–MUCH WORSE–to be able to KEEP doing that indefinitely, so long as the transports wish to remain there. and yea i do think it’s very cheap, especially for an America making 90+…i’d gladly spend 8-24 ipcs for a few turns if it meant completely neutralizing germany’s multi-targeted threats on gib, london, and norway. and it’s not like you’re wasting that money, as each dd you drop is backed by a full scramble, so it’s a real pain in the asz for germany to deal with (as you can see, i even had to forgo killing one of them)

to be honest, i’m quite surprised that you and gamer don’t see any problem with this rule. but i have to respect others’ viewpoints as well.

anyway, yea i definitely won’t be playing any more games with this rule as is.

but for now, i’m stuck with it this game. i’m going to revert the troop load and suck it up. i do appreciate your offer to allow it, but since you do fundamentally disagree with me on the rule, i don’t feel good about accepting the offer.

having said that, i am going to take a small break from a&a, maybe a few days, or maybe a whole week. not sure yet. i think stepping away will help me get over all this, as i’m feeling quite turned off by the game right now.

hope that’s ok with you.
