2016 JDOW (Axis) vs strategic planner (allies +24)

[strategic planner]

thanks for the advice :). I am good at 1942 1E - this Saturday I played Russia, bought all inf/art the whole time and pushed Germany back to eastern Europe and Italy. but I am horrendous at global so far, but my goal is to get better. that is a good strategy to hold the front and to not get blown up. I think I need to be more cautious with attacks and positioning so I don’t destroy my armies for nothing

[JDOW]

I btw looks like you do not take my advice seriously or did not understand what the issue was at Alaska last turn.

Again, I can attack your destroyer and sending planes to sz26. Those planes kill the destroyer and the 5 transports and land on a carrier after that.

I assume you did not want to send your Transports into certain death? You could send them to Johnston Island. Edit them if you like.
That was the last time I warned you ;)

You were aware that subs can always slip through Gibraltar regardless who owns it?

And Sir,

it is a bit frustrating that you don’t read carefully what I write and do the same mistakes twice.

I just realized now that you killed my sub in sz125 with the Russian sub, this was not possible.

Again, you cannot force a sub into combat without an attacking destroyer present!
Without a destroyer present the defender can decide whether he wants to fight or submerge, TripleA forces you to decide. In this case I would have obviously submerged.

I edited this back in the last map, no further changes necessary.

about subs and stuff:

I am on the us turn. your Italian sub sunk my destroyer and so I eventually retreated.
secondly - do you want your midway sub to submerge or stay?

I don’t want to mess up the battles so that’s why I’m asking you.

Hey,

glad you asked:)

You really need to get more confident with the rules, you entirely messed it up in sz91 :)

First of all and MOST important: Do NOT mix combat moves and non combat moves!!! What you did in sz91 was in the end not even legal!

What you should have done:
Send just the destroyer to 91 and let him fight! Do not move any transport in combat move phase, you may only pick up ground units in combat move phase in case they end up doing an amphibious assault.

Now the DD lost, however this does not affect your transports for now.
You can just move the transports on the sub in non combat move phase. Remember: You can ignore subs during non combat movement.

Here is what you gonna do:

• You redo the entire US turn (Do not move the destroyer to sz55 in combat move phase)
• You remove the Destroyer from sz106 via edit mode (it lost the battle in 91)
• You do the midway attack and I strongly recommend to unload ALL transports! (On the attached map you did not unload all units)
• You let my sub submerge
• AFTER you killed the fleet off Midway you can do non combat moves in the Atlantic and for instance move the transports to 91. (You could protect them with the boats in sz109 with your UK move.

Got it? :)
