The battle for Paris.

@gorshak

Surfer is correct. Also, nice map.

@Gargantua:

@Marshmallow:

but again my perspective on Sea Lion is that an early Sea Lion is a losing move under most circumstances.

Marsh

Im glad to see that your perspective has upgraded from �always a losing move� to �a losing move under most circumstances�. :)

I look forward to the day it evolves again to �under SOME circumstances� :)

:roll: :evil: :-D

The game in Seattle was very instructive.

What an excellent report, you are a grear story teller!

I never attended a military academy and yet in this game with Karl7  http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=32567.270I  I conquered all of Europe all by myself.  But in the end I was stabbed in the back by my own generals, even the SS.  I should have liquidated the whole general staff like Stalin did. What a monstrous betrayal of the German people!

In the end we were dug in with 5 AA, 1 bomber, 251 infantry, 1 artillery, 5 mech, 10 armor, 5 tacs, and 8 fighters defending Berlin against the final onslaught of allied subhuman scum.

First the Bolsheviks came in with 9 armour, 1 artillery, 1 bomber, 21 infantry, 4 mech_infantrys and 1 tactical_bomber but they failed to defeat me.

Then the Americans gave it a try with 57 armour, 51 artilleries, 6 bombers, 11 fighters, 126 infantry and 6 tactical_bombers.  They also failed to defeat me and I was safe in my Fuhrer bunker with 2 fighters left.

But finally the traitors drowned in their own blood.  The British finished me off with 13 armour, 6 artilleries, 5 fighters, 32 infantry and 4 mech_infantrys

And this is all I have to say about it:

Guadalcanal is awesome.

I have worn out the dice box does anyone know where to buy replacements?

Although I do love this game I must confess that the box got most of the wear and tear from me using it as my main rolling method for global.

It is great to be able to roll up to 12 dice for different units. If you have 4inf, 2 art, 3 tanks, 2bombers we do one roll in the box. First 2 dice are infantry, next 4 are artillery and upgraded infantry, next 3 are tanks, next 2 are bombers, and the last die is disregarded.

Much faster and great anticipation revealing the dice.

@wheatbeer:

Page 20 in the Europe rulebook says its possible:
“An attacking land unit can assault a coastal territory from an ally’s transport, but only on the attacking land unit owner’s turn.”

Clear enough! Thank you!

@wheatbeer:

The transport unit description doesn’t seem to contradict this.

I still am a bit confused because of the Transport unit description
“Amphibious Assaults: A transport can take part in an amphibious assault step of the Conduct Combat phase. That is the only time a transport can offload into a hostile territory.”

So in fact a transport can offload into a hostile territory under two circumstances:
1. own troops in an amphibious assault on it’s own combat move
2. allied troops (cargo) as part of the combat move of the allied nation
  (but here the Transport cannot be part of the amphibious assault because allied nations never attack together)

But no more arguing, I am convinced now.
Thank you again.

@suprise:

Page 18 of the Euro rule book and page 16 of the Pacific rule book
  My interp. of this is 1 sub, 1 carr with 2 planes. the sub gets a hit what happens …… the carr is tipped and the planes are in the air  if the sub does not fire a second shot then the planes need to land within their movement allowance. If you had 2 subs and they both hit then the carr would go down  I would say the planes would get away because subs cant hit air units
  Those two pages answer the Q’s for me

The movement allowance is only one when defending. The planes would need to land on an adjacent island, coastal tt, or friendly carrier w/room on board.
