Gsh34 (Axis) vs. Axisplaya (Allies) G40 Alpha +.2 (no tech)
-
I need your OOL please Axisplaya. See attached map for battle.
-
Well, i will tell you that after work, when i can open the map.
Right now, i can tell you that i didn’t see at all that your planes in She could make it. Otherwise, i would never have put my fleet in here. With 11 hits, it looks like i’m going to get wiped…
I tell you my losses in a few hours, when i’m home.

Well, now that we are past the point of me bombing Russia, I can tell you the airbase in She was so I could send those planes to Romania or Bessarabia on this Japanese turn. Then, I could get them in position for a sustained bombing campaign on Moscow. That was my original thinking by placing it there. In no way did I anticipate you moving your fleet that close behind me. Also, in no way does my 11 hits mean that I have won the battle. I have 22 hits for 61 pips to start the battle. So, I should have gotten 10 hits. I was one above average. You have 23 hits for 53 pips by my count, so you should get ~9 hits in return. If you are around average, the battle will still rage on as you have 4 soak off hits to my 2 (3 if I actually sink my carrier with no attack value). Anyways, I am learning a lot in this game. Namely, my KAF is pretty easy to defend against and it really does take a long time to get to Moscow after doing Sealion. I can see that it would most likely be round 12 at the earliest that I would have had a legitimate attack on it.
Anyways, I await you OOL. Who knows, maybe if I do win this battle I will be able to breath new life into Japan in next couple of rounds.

Hmm…those 8@4 are way to strong…I really think i’m gonna lose it all.
Ok, still at work, but managed to open the map…hope my boss won’t read this lol !
I lose :
Anz ss + dd
3AC, damage BB
2ddThis mistake - putting my fleet in range of so much airpower- is huge. It clearly gives you the boost you needed (eventually).
Now, if i have to rebuild a complete pac fleet, i won’t be able to put all i can to retake london…
Really frustrated by my stupid play here…

See attached map with what is left.
Well, I knew going in that it was an iffy battle and dice finally went against me….as is always possible.
I believe that I will surrender in this game now. Japan is a shell and Germany has a two front war to contend with and it is a ways from taking out Moscow (if ever). I could go on and drag the game out but I do believe that you would be the eventual victor. I don’t think I would get 8 VC in Europe before you took either UK or Italy or maybe even Cairo. As I had said previously, I wanted to test my KAF and you spanked it even with bad dice!!!
I did have a thoroughly enjoyable game with you and I would love to play against you in an Alpha +3 game. If you do agree, would you mind if I was the Axis again? I feel like I need to try for some redemption. :-D
-
Wow ! I didn’t expected a surrender here…
I will happily take it ! Thought it was going to take a lot more than that to win this one.
I will be glad to play again with Alpha 3.
You can start a new thread whenever you want and post G1.
Just make sure you make all the changes in the set-up before starting.
With Alpha3, however, unless i didn’t read it well, your KAF is dead (at least the way you play it)…no way you can come in a sz adjacent to US coast without declaring war.
-
I have to make a map with all the changes for a game with Questioneer. I will do it this week-end.
If you want, we can wait and take my map. -
By map, do you mean a new module for battlemap? Otherwise Kobu had started a game with the Alpha +2 module and he redid the unit placements already. That is what I was going to use.

Oh…ok, smart man…that will also save me some work !!
So you can start it when you want.

Alright then, I will start when I can (which won’t be tonight).
