Alsch (Axis) vs Auswanderersland and JamesAleman (Allies) Alpha 2

It is an unusual round for dice.  The 3 fighter escorts lived.  An unescorted bomber dies.  We place a carrier to die, but that is for next rounds dice.  Just think JJ, he will have to commit at least 4 subs to guarantee no planes die, but he might opt for less, who knows?

Too bad you can’t change US production after the fact.  I want that bomber back!

Yes Britain is in process, but it is difficult with my son teething at the moment.  And since it is raining, can’t wear em down for a quiet night.

Turn 8 Britain/India

No production India save 7 IPC

Britain production 30 IPC:
1 airbase
5 inf

15 + 15 = 30 save 0

JJ please confirm this.  I think I have the noncoms for Australia correct, please look this over and give the go ahead so Alsch may finally have his move :)

oops, map

map says Anzac collected 16…but I only count 14…confirm?

Auswander&James vs Alsch 08gAnzac.AAM

It is 16, you are + 5 for an NO(DGu,Ngu,Sol,Nbr) - 3 for convoy(Cel)= 16

It all looks good, don’t forget to Seize Hon with USSR to liberate the UK factory :)

so 16 + 2 saved = 18 IPC collected.

Still am concerned about the Que noncombat - I don’t think I really understand what your gambit is there, give me a call when Wilkinson leaves.  I am coming down to the folks tonight for Easter dinner tomorrow.

Anzac not finished.

Auswander&James vs Alsch 08gAnzac.AAM

and yeah, i know its a week late.

noncom and placement change to Anzac.

I am not able to post the map as I am out of town and JJ is at work, so if you make one of your insta posts Alsch, would you please update these changes for us?

Move Anzac plane from Carolinas waters to Que.
Produce destroyer in Que waters…I believe z54.

So 2 planes, 6 troops in Que and destroyer in her waters.

Thanks.

Anzac finished now.  Go for it Italy.
