2016 strategic planner (Axis) vs JDOW (allies +24)

No scramble in sz39.

But you need to finish all your combat moves first before posting the map, you still have units on loaded transports. In case you load them during combat move phase you need to unload them into an amphibious assault. Otherwise don’t load them during combat move phase but during non combat movements.

I recommend you redo the Japanese turn, as discussed you only take units on transports during combat move if they are gonna land in a hostile territory, otherwise move them during Non Combat movement.

@strategic:

points taken and noted. did I do it correctly this time? thanks!

Yep, technicall your move was correct.

Strategically you again sent your transports at sz6 into almost certain death. The blocker does not help at all.
I could air strike sz6 as I explained already just landing on the carriers and attacking the blocker in sz16, however in this case I do not even need to attack the blocker because the planes can land in Korea.

Sir, I expect no scramble both, in sz6 and sz112 because your planes will very likely gonna die. In case you would like to scramble, we can roll that on the forum later, please let me know if this is the case.

Cheers!

Sir, you dodged a lot of bullets in that game. I guess you should have no need to complain about dice^^

Not sure if you were aware that I would have attacked your fleet at sz37 with Anzac if Shan State would have been better.
That battle at Kiangsu was 5% chance or less to have that outcome, so you factory was not destroyed.

Curious to see what reckless attacks you are gonna do next:D

p.s.: I took of Inf at Shan state, feel free to switch that and take the Arty off.

It was a good decision from you not to make an ill advised attack at my fleet in 112.

However did you realize that you could have easily taken air support to Holland? This time you paid a high price for that kind of sloppiness!

You should always plan all your planes in advance and use them if possible.

Scramble the tactical bomber please please.
