I would have let you run away after the fact.
I sometimes forget to CM a Sub out of trouble. Is annoying.  Thought leaving a Sub there  was the best way to get a DD to the combat zone. Maybe putting a second one there would have been safer.
Give me a few hour stop do my go please. Don’t wait up.

America has 75 income. What will I do with all that cash? Anyone would have thought that America did not knpw there was a war on!
I am very disillusioned with the US at war income. Did you see a few of us played some games with plus 10 income to US, sometimes more? Wasn’t enough. Think Russia needs another five too.
Have a good day and feel free to make my long held African Empire German or  even Italian.

[gamerman01]

I totally agree, my man….
Larry overcompensated from an earlier version when the Allies dominated.  Now America doesn’t earn enough for homeland.

The convoy rules SUCK too.  I know it never happens but it SHOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE to convoy America for ALL FIFTY of her income.  Alaska, Hawaii, WUS, CUS, EUS, West Indies, Mexico, SE Mexico

Shoot, make it 52 and count Brazil.  Ridiculous  :-)

[gamerman01]

As far as Russia, sure, they need more money.  Their lend-lease NO should be automatic (impossible to disrupt) and maybe should be 10 or 15.

But my personal preference is that Allies are not ALLOWED to move anything into Russia, because they weren’t allowed historically.

I could go on……
One of these days I’m going to finish designing my own game and it will be much more awesome than this  :wink:  :-D

[gamerman01]

@wittmann:

I would have let you run away after the fact.

Thanks for saying that, I appreciate it, I didn’t doubt it but I felt wrong even asking.  I felt a little guilty getting lucky and sinking the sub, too.  At least ANZ took care of business then - you needed that 2nd destroyer

[Witt]

I am glad I can get you all riled up about the game’s obvious mistakes, just like me.
House Rules work fine, if you play regularly enough. I don’t.
Is a shame if the game loses fans, because of things like this though.
Off to work soon, so feel free to delay playing your turn. Do someone else’s . Have an enjoyable time.

@wittmann:

No way, I’ll have my alternative ready before everyone’s left!

Nope, this one’s a lot easier and less work  :-)

Now might be a good time for my convoy rolls rant?  Receptive audience?

The whole convoy system is broken.  It’s still fun, but it’s broken.  We have enough dice being rolled and enough heart attacks without adding more dice to the game

[gamerman01]

And what are your subs disrupting??  All my income is from Italy.  OK, 2 IPC’s are from TrJ and Sudan.  So your subs should be able to disrupt 2 IPC’s of income.

My Italian farmers are working just as hard and all their goods are getting to market.  My Italian factories are totally unaffected by submarines in the Adriatic.  If you put enough subs in 101, you can disrupt THIRTY-TWO USA IPC’s every turn.  That is STUPID and can easily be fixed.

[Witt]

@Gamerman01:

What the…… Chinese went OFF
You should have attacked Yunnan, in hindsight

thanks. Was best bet, yes.
I think I really should have 2 turns ago. Might have saved India a bit  longer. I think I saw you will have it very soon now. I could not do it: told myself I had to (while in Local), then did the go for real and decided against  it.

Convoy is the wrong way round. Home Nation should never lose it’s income, as it is not travelling anywhere. Agreed.
The DEI income not making it to Japan, I understand.

[gamerman01]

I didn’t seriously mean you should have attacked Yunnan.  I only was joking about all those 1’s your rolled and how they were “wasted”

[Witt]

Just saw that my 3 Subs (moved one) only did 3 Convoy, leaving your juicy 16 to spend.
I wanted to prevent you Bombing 91 for a 5 NO, forgetting you got the Empire one, now Germany owns Egypt. Bugger!
Did you want me to take back the Aleutains? Just wondering if the Bomber was bait. Will buy a TT for Aus, but taking one Iasland won’t change much and you have two TTs out of danger and in reach to reclaim the 9 IPCs anyway.
Once India falls, Japan will be making 90. Another few days and I will concede.
Adam (Private Panic) will be back from America soon and I can easily divert myself playing him.
My wife even said she would consider playing a face to face game again. (Been 3 or 4 years now.) She  must love me. Or just be bored!
I got a vinyl double size 1942 2nd Edition map printed, so playing on that would be nice. And quick for my suicidal attacking wife. She plays agressively, to finish sooner.

[Witt]

Two turns ago, you had 3 Ground units, one AA and 5 Air (maybe a Bomber). I considered attacking with 10 Inf and the Ft.
Could have been messy, but needed  to safeguard Russia’s rear and reduce your Ground units.
The stand off was to your advantage.

[gamerman01]

@wittmann:

Just saw that my 3 Subs (moved one) only did 3 Convoy, leaving your juicy 16 to spend.

Right, that’s why I acknowledged the convoy roll luck

I wanted to prevent you Bombing 91 for a 5 NO, forgetting you got the Empire one, now Germany owns Egypt. Bugger!

92?  Egypt is huge, it’s +5 for Germany AND Italy, I guess that’s why everyone fights over it in the early game.  I still don’t.

Did you want me to take back the Aleutains? Just wondering if the Bomber was bait.

I’m glad you asked.  Wanted to use the bomber on Zone 1, and yes I was willing to let you take a risky attack, make the bombers go at Aleutians rather than do something else, and figured I could easily kill 2 transports that then couldn’t go south.  So basically, bait, yes.  And you almost failed to take it :)

Will buy a TT for Aus, but taking one Iasland won’t change much and you have two TTs out of danger and in reach to reclaim the 9 IPCs anyway.
Once India falls, Japan will be making 90. Another few days and I will concede.

Yep, sounds good to me  :-)  I might be game for a rematch too

Adam (Private Panic) will be back from America soon and I can easily divert myself playing him.
My wife even said she would consider playing a face to face game again. (Been 3 or 4 years now.) She  must love me. Or just be bored!

Man, that is a rare woman, there

I got a vinyl double size 1942 2nd Edition map printed, so playing on that would be nice. And quick for my suicidal attacking wife. She plays agressively, to finish sooner.

She must love you
