The AA gun supposes to fire no more than 3 times, but the total shoots of AA gun are always no more than the number of air force combined.  For example, I have 8 bombers + 6 Planes, and you have 4 AA guns.  In this case, you would fire 12 times because 3 x 4 = 12 shoots < 8+6 = 14 air forces. It only happened on the beginning of 1st round’s combat.

Is this what you expected?  If this is not the mechanism you expected would you like to roll back and adjust the Japanese force’s arrangement?  It’s totally fine with me.

Cheers,

I have a look to the rolls.  They fired, but as usual, they miss  :-D

Thank you :lol:  I feel I have to attack now as Japan is getting really big and could start to pressure Russia’s captial soon.  It is hard to say what could happen if Germany lasts for a couple more turns.

BTW congratulations to your 1st round victory on tournament! :-D

Seems like we gained experience throughout the plays :-D  I remembered it’s tough to defeat your Axis when using Allies in 1E!

World is small - Your next opponent turns out living in the same city as I do!  I would love to invite him out for a face to face game some time :-D.

And let me know whenever you like a rematch :-D :-D

I live in Shanghai right now - I was watching the tournament and notice he commented he’s living in China so I was curious to check…Was pretty happy as it’s hard to find AA folks in the same place these days.

He seems like a tough opponent!  Good luck and have the dices with you :-D!
