@simon33:

Well that round was somewhat costly.

Well, in the last turn of combat three bombers have been lost to antiaircraft fire. It has been odd.

@simon33:

Yes, full scramble.

Oh no Kami’s left. Bummer. Don’t think I saw that.

If you had kamikazes left I would not have been able to make the attack. As it was, your first defensive roll was quite harsh – seven hits. I had actually counted on having two loaded carriers left instead of one. So much for that.

I took a shot at the Philippines with one land unit attacking. Unfortunately for me, I was not able to reclaim it – I’ll have to take care of that next round with ANZAC.

Oh yeah, and I’ll be moving the Russians in this time.  :-)

I gotta say though, I got incredibly lucky on the Caucasus roll. I thought I was going to lose planes (planes for tanks being a bad trade even in that situation), but you only killed one tank. That more than made up for the loss of three extra US units in sea zone 6.

Why is Triple A not letting me move the Russians into Korea? It seems to think the move is illegal.

No rule requires Japan to be at war to reinforce a US territory. Korea is not part of China.

Rephrasing: No rule requires Russia to be at war to reinforce a US held Korea. Russia is not attacking, and Korea is not part of China.

Also, nothing in the notes says anything about Korea being part of China, nor is there any entry denying the Russians entry into Korea via non-combat move when not at war with Japan.
