16L G40 Stalingradski (Allies +23) vs Talleyrand19 (Axis)

[Talleyrand19]

let’s do this, use one kami token per destroyer (obviously only up to the 6 tokens)…and then in Iraq, lose the bombers first, they’re going to die either way so might as well try to dent your US attacking power with max defense…RIP German air force

[Stalingradski]

Here we go - game is on the line with these battles…

[Talleyrand19]

serious question, are you allowed to move friendly sea units into a sea zone that just had combat? like it’s different rules than land battles?

[Stalingradski]

You’re right - it was a 71% chance I would take it with two artillery + both aircraft. To lose everything and for you to have ten mech left was certainly a big shift.

[Stalingradski]

Yes, once the battle is over, you can NCM whatever you’d like, if there are no enemy ships left.

[Stalingradski]

if you’re unsure, ask the moderators. I’m 99.9% confident in my answer…  :-)

[Talleyrand19]

okay that’s what I thought, just checking, thanks

[Talleyrand19]

it makes sense that way too…since you can’t take out a destroyer block and then go invade an island because it’s NCM moves only
