XDAP2 - Round 1 - Atlanta Axis vs. Boldman

please tell me the Chinese aren’t the holdup here

The Chinese aren’t the hold up

Really, the fact that Bold and Gamer are both still physically alive in real life at this point after 7 rounds is a victory for team Boldman

you’re not serious with the Godzilla damage are you?!

Of course I am.  Minus 1 inf and 3 SBR damage.

Godzilla will roll a dice per turn up to 6 damage, but your fleet in the sea of Japan could attack him.

He rolls 10 defence dice at 3, and takes 10 hits to kill.

Should be no problem for your fleet, and you can roll it anytime out of your turn sequence.  Of course, you will probably be left with a few tipped carriers, but it shouldn’t be a problem. :P

Well then I assume that since Godzilla recognizes all men as enemies that the US fleet would have to defeat Godzilla before attacking anything in SZ 6.

That is also correct RPG44

At the beginning of each round (Germanys turn) Godzilla may also return to the deep sea forever, or move to another random pacific location.  Like San Francisco perhaps.

lol

Godzilla rules

• Rolls 1 Die of up to 6 IPC damage per turn, or loss of unit, near whatever he is closest to.
• 10 hits to kill, rolls 10 dice at 3 defence.
• Any attack in a zone he occupies is an attack on Godzilla and he will support the defender.
• Godzilla roles a movement die at the beginning of every German turn

1. Godzilla stays
2. Godzilla moves north
3. Godzilla moves east
4. Godzilla moves west
5. Godzilla moves south
6. Godzilla disappears forever

I’m a huge Godzilla fan, I’m not killing him.  Now if it was MechaGodzilla sure, or MechaStreisand then definitely.

Should there be anymore questions or complaints, King Ghidorah will show up. :-o

@Soulblighter:

This game is on hold till 28th of February this month. I am expecting to be able to continue this game before then, but I am not taking anymore chances.

Quote from one of the other XDAP games.

Garg how are you allowing this kind of stuff, we are never going to finish this tournament if people are allowed to pause games for 3 weeks.  I think King Ghidorah has a target.

I’m afraid your order of combat was illegal.  I think you should re-roll all of the combat in the proper order.  Amphibious assaults must be rolled before any other battles.

Bold doesn’t seem to mind
I’m not demanding, necessarily
Just pointing out rules violation, and ask that you do what you think is right.
