z113 you take 2 hits on CV, 1 on each BB, then I’m going to kill the BB. I think I’m gtd to win the battle so it shouldn’t matter which OOL.
I take 1 hit each on the CV and BB and lose a Sub.

Trajan, just to make sure before my turn, the purpose of your newly built DD is to halt my sub in 109? It cannot prevent my subs in 112 to move. Of course I dont presume to know what your intentions are, but just in case it should be the latter, you can certainly build elsewhere.

Re your DD, maybe you think I aim for W-Germany and want to prevent naval bombardment :)
-
Re the DD, it was not placed for the R Sub - just as a general blocker against the US Transporting anywhere!
(If you had hit it with the R Sub, I would have scrambled and taken a J plane as casualty)
Not going to get J11 up tonight, will post early tomorrow. -
Very good.
However, you could not take a japan aircraft as casualty as subs cannot hit air units at all. If the sub had hit, you’d have had to take the DD as casualty. Jap air would have guaranteed that I have only one shot, of course.In any case, as I was not clever enough to see this before and did not give thought to this aspect of hostile sea zones, you are safe from those TTs. Congrats for using the rules to maximum effect!
-
Thanks! I did however forget the rule that, while Air can hit subs if DD present, the reverse isn’t true.

mIC KorSo that’s 6 VCs for Japan (Calc, HK, Shang, Tok, Man, Hono) and I don’t see how you can take any of them back in the next turn…so unless I again have a rule error I think we are done?
If so, it’s been a great game, I’d love to do a post-mortem over PM.
-
lol…
Unreserved congratulations, you earned this win.For the record, I did not think about VCs for a second because I usually (exception my last game here) go for a total win whichever strategy game I play. Most of the time I cant bring my mind to other winning conditions. Leaving Hawaii defenceless even if I could have hold it forever is a result of this mindset.
Having said all that, again, you manouvered very well, I could not spot an obvious / exploitable mistake and the game served to show me that there is a lot left to learn for me, allies-wise.
Happy to discuss further.
