Edit: What-if UK did not go for aggressive Medi fgt buy in UK1, and instead focus on sea mine in sz 12 and 15, and buy inf art atg at ratio of 4:2:1 and occasional tnk bmb for Cairo.

so 56 ipc to japan
I think that you are reading the convoy raid rules the way I did for the first time.
It is an unusual system, unique to Axis and Allies. It is not that raids hit on a 3 or less, well actually they do since 4 thru 6 is a miss, but if you roll 3 or less, that’s how many ipcs damage you do, up to the territory limit.
Since the Phillipines have a max value of 2, that 3 counts as a raid of 2. Japan loses 2 ipcs from raids.
map?
dratz, forgot the map AND the new NO…
i dont get the island bonus…
so 50 ipc due to the correct CRD :)
a little note… its nice to see that there are indeed some drastic changes… just annoying having 2 games of A2, 1 game of A3 (new rules, old setup) and really want to learn and try a full A3 game…
i think i, during my jap turn alone saw 3 changes i needed to correct… and after the turn i saw atleast 3 other things i should have done differently with japan/axis as a whole…
including my somewhat limited spare time and i really shouldnt be playing this much AnA. I feel like we should call this game done and start a new one, fresh and “even” if it finnaly is even, start setup and rules… i gotta admit i feel little left out with thoose new setup changes.
how do you feel?

I am feeling like, having had my fleet whipped at Pearl Harbor, how could I not accept a draw at this point?
I am willing to start over if you like? With the new setup.
Do you have a battlemap file all set up with the new opening positions?
the A3 map
I deleted the UK inf fr paris and reset the alignment of the ipc counts in the table at the top left.
