@dawgoneit I forgot if it’s allowed for me to put the ANZAC fighters on Java since I just went in, the game allows it but if it is not allowed by rules then I would put them in Queensland

Weird -
2nd consecutive turn the Italians got a great roll in 97 for convoy, but poor combat rolls.

Change buy of 1 arty to 1 infantry

Changed my mind back
Keep buy as is -
Overlooked deleting American infantry from Queensland when adding to Borneo
Correcting that now -

Does an airbase need to be functional to use paratroopers? I know I don’t have paratroopers but I was checking to see about the rockets. The rules on rockets clearly state that you need an operative AB, but I didn’t read anything in the paratrooper’s paragraph about need an operative AB. Was that just an oversight or can paratroopers use a broken AB?

Thanks, I appreciate it. That’s kind of what I was going to do and I missed out on it until Japan was done.

Yes it was an oversight. I clarified it with Krieghund recently on the FAQ thread.
-
Yes, scramble them

I have another item for your list. Triplea doesn’t let paratroopers go across seazones to attack when there’s a land route available that exceeds the movement restrictions. IE, it doesn’t let you send paratroopers from Paris and W.Germany to say Norway because it tries to send them along the land connection all the way around the Baltic instead of directly across the narrow body of water. Attacking anything that’s not connected by land and meets the other requirements is allowed though. So you’re good to use those same ABs to assist a SL.

Man, you hit every single time except in Holland. Yeash. :cry:
Btw, made an edit of a dude from Ukr to Cau. I figured it’d be easier than editing the guy from Rostov to Cau and then Ukr to Rostov. But I figured I’d give you a heads up about it so you didn’t wonder how he turned into a mech.

Seth, my compliments for your brave fight. After turn 5 or so I thought the game is completely lost for the Axis. And while I lack experience how to exactly judge the current position I would say you are in a way better shape than 4 rounds ago. Germany has 80 income and so far manages to hold both front lines. Not sure how secure Moscow is with the incoming reinforcements.
Good luck to both and thanks for having such an interesting game!
-
I agree
Might just be my biased perception, but I believe he has been the recipient of very good dice for a few rounds now.
What goes up must come down, and it looks like the temporary good dice ended with that rough G9….Time for a Red response… :-)

I will open up the French save and try it out myself to see what you are saying, and then I will add it to my list…
