  • If you attack z91 we’ll scramble Spain and Portugal

  • '21 '19 '18 '17 '16

    I’ve run the cataclysmic battle in the Atlantic a couple of times now, it’s very loss order sensitive.  What order do you want to lose stuff in?

    Just to nit pick, you mean to scramble from Spain and Gibraltar with 4 fighters and two tac bombers?

  • '21 '19 '18 '17 '16

    Alternately, is there a way to save after each round of combat so that you can choose the casualties?


  • Yes. After you have rolled the dice just select the “map” (you should have two triplea windows, one with the map one with the battle) and save normally. We may spit out an OOL before or after that.


  • Yes we want all planes scrambled. So 2Fighter, 1Tac each from Gibraltar and Spain.
    We will lose units in the following order:
    1)damage carrier
    2)sub
    3)destroyers
    4)lose 4 carriers(so try to keep 1)
    5)cruiser
    6)tacs
    7)remaining carrier
    8)fighters

  • Ok seems I overlooked the obvious exploit and paid the price. We should be able to recover I think.

  • '21 '19 '18 '17 '16

    Think of all the things we’ll know not do next round. :-)

    Don’t go after three countries at once  with Japan
    Don’t make stupid big stacks with Germany
    The dice hate both sides
    Big and balanced fleets matter
    You can never have too many ships guarding transports
    Avoid aircraft losses
    Etc.


  • Test summary from TripleA 13:18:33


  • So here’s a save of our combat move. We need scrambling and Kamikaze orders for Japan as well as an order of loss for the ground battle. Well mainly if you want to keept some AA around.


  • For got to attach the save of course

  • '21 '19 '18 '17 '16

    No scramble, no kamikazes against the American assault.

    Order of loss
    1 AA gun
    19 infantry
    2 artillery
    2 AA guns
    2 fighters


  • could you say the same stuff for a british attack. although you might want to see a save of the combat move first.
