@Spud said in Combined bombardment in AAR:
Does anyone know if the destroyers need to be accompanied by a battleship in order to use combined bombardment?
No. There’s nothing in the rules indicating that.

Awaiting utter destruction by the German forces :cry:
-
AA shots:
Against fighters: 2, 2, 3, 4, 6
Against bomber: 1 (hit)I took the liberty to roll for my Belorussia guy and the 5 guys remaining in Caucasus.
The Belorussia guy misses with a 4 (copied your guy apparently : / )
The five infantry go : 2, 4, 4, 6, 6 (bad roll like your west russia defense).
Finishing Bel then…
INF rolled 2 and 5 (miss)
ARM rolled 3 and 3 (2 hits).Your INF dead. Germany takes Bel with 2 INF and 2 tanks
In Caucuses (I’ll count those as 5 of your defense INF’s, but I show 9 INF present in Caucuses, plus 1 tank, so you will need to roll 3 more INF and 1 tank:
Germany loses 1 fig to AA (I choose the loss, you rolled 6 AA, 1 hit, I lose the fig not the bomber)
2 INF roll 4 and 5 (misses)
2 INF supported and 2 ART roll 2, 3, 4, 5 (1 hit)
3 ARM roll 5, 5, 5 (that sucks, 3 misses)
4 figs roll 1, 2, 3, 4 (more like it, 4 hits)
1 Bomber rolls 1m (1 hit)Total attack rolls:
1 INF lost to BB
1 INF lost to ART
4 INF lost to figs.Awaiting last 3 INF defense rolls and tank defense roll for battle round 1

Purchase: 4 infantry and 3 artillery, 0 IPCs leftover.
3 infantry + 1 fighter from karelia, as well as the fighter from moscow, attack Belorussia.
3 infantry + tank from Archangel, 3 infantry + 2 tanks + 1 art from moscow, 3 infantry + 1 tank + 1 art, attack West Russia.
I choose to resolve the Belorussia attack first.
Shoot I can see where you didn’t count my Caucasus forces correctly. See that set “3 infantry + 1 tank + 1 art”? That comes from Caucasus (I didn’t put a label by accident) which attacked West Russia on the first turn. If I hadn’t used those forces I would have had much lower rolls. Do you still wish to proceed with this combat?
-
By the way you can’t not lose the bomber. In the rulebook you roll separate dice for fighters vs bombers; I rolled 5 white dice (fighter) and 1 black dice (bomber). The 1 was on the black dice.
-
OK, I’ll lose the bomber :-P Sine the roll was a 1 for it though, was still a fig hit. So I’ll trash the Bomber and replace with fig.
As far as the INF from the West Russia attack…
That leaves me a lot more forces in WR than I had counted on, but I’ll continue.
Removing the 3 INF, 1 ART and 1 ARM to replace in WR.
And then with that adjustement, your Caucuses forces are dead with no remaining counter.
Damn, A few things I’d ahve done differently, but we’ll call it fog of war and go with it :-)

Combat Moves:
3 Norway INF to Karelia (open, taken w/o loss)
2 Eastern INF, to Bel
1 Eastern ARM to Caucuses
2 Germany ARM to Bel
1 Southern INF and 1 ART via tranny to Caucuses (with BB)
3 Ukraine INF, 1 ART, 1 ARM to Caucuses
1 Norway fig to Caucuses
1 German fig to Caucuses
1 German Bomber to Caucuses
1 Eastern fig to Caucuses
1 Balkans fig to Caucuses
1 Ukraine fig to CaucusesI don’t see how you attacked with 3 armors. Did you forget to mention that you wanted to move the Balkans tank to attack Caucasus as well? I only see 2 tanks, 1 from ukraine and 1 form east europe. We’ll call it fog of war too if you did indeed attack with the eastern tank. Anyways proceed with your turn. I have to work soon so I might not get to the UK’s turn.

2 Germany tanks to Eastern
I assume you mean that the 2 Western Europe tanks go to Eastern Europe, since the 2 German tanks are already in Belorussia from the combat move.
2 Germany INF 2 Eastern
And I assume that second “2” is “to” as in 2 germany inf move to eastern europe.
All right yeah I have to work now, I’ll be back in 4 hours so don’t wait up. Tomorrow about the same time I guess?

Wes,
