    UK Pac beat the odds in Yun, but chose to retreat from battle with 2 tanks and 2 planes vs only 1 Jpn tank left.  Probably should have taken Yun, to prevent Jpn mech and planes from reaching and destroying Burma or bombing India.  USA gained 2 big N.O.'s and terr.

    Yes, but once again the bulk of US Atlantic fleet will be sunk. I will be needing scramble and OOL for that battle.

    Bri replaced the 2 figs that went to Gib, plus added another and a sub.  The U.S. added 2 dd and a sub.  Not enough to guarantee survival, but I didn’t want to use up a dd every turn to block the Ger navy.  I could have not moved Bri figs to Gib and then could have bought more ships instead of replacement figs.  Maybe Ger will find a better use for the bombers in St Pete.

  • 25 24 23 22 21 20 19

    Oops, I just realized that 2 figs from St Pete can join the battle by landing on the cv.  If you use every available plane from St Pete, you will definitely win.

  • 25 24 23 22 21 20 19

    My reference to LL in Mos was Ger T9 when 8 Rus inf inflicted 4 hits vs LL of 3.  The Rus counterattack definitely was lucky dice for me.

    scramble?

  • 20

    Considering the insane dice this game, OOL preferences in the case the battle goes your way?

  • 25 24 23 22 21 20 19

    No scramble.  You were able to use planes that could only land cv’s that were being built this turn.  You did that to me last game and I didn’t think of it here.  Roll 1st round

  • 20

    I applied the two sub hits to the cvs of course. beside that, 11 hits to assign

  • 25 24 23 22 21 20 19

    OOL all the US and Bri dd’s subs and sink the cv’s makes 11.

  • 25 24 23 22 21 20 19

    If I had used a dd to block the Ger fleet, bat calc would have been 50% without the Ger fleet or the 2 planes that could have landed on the cv.  Don’t know how I could have built more than Ger each turn to change the situation.

    I concede.  Even tho the allies have slightly more cash, units and TUV, Ger and Jpn each have massive air that the US can’t overcome.  Playing thru the mid-game gave me some experience that I didn’t have with global bal mod.  But at this point, I’d prefer to put that experience to use in a rematch.  I’m sure that I could do better as the allies next time.  I see how Jpn can defend it’s homeland with a few specific units and that Phil controls the entire area and can use kamikazi, so one big fleet there is a simple plan; and that sz 36 is hard for the allies to reach.  Now I just have to take out China and not lose the Ger capital.  Do you have a preference for which side you want to play and which game version?  Global bal mod works for me, but I would consider others.

  • 20

    I’m uninterested in a balance mod match at this point. I would do some other version of Triple A

  • 25 24 23 22 21 20 19

    Such as?  Are you playing any other forum games?  How’s that Punic wars game with ABH?  I’d like a Rome vs Carthage game but not the massive ancient world war B.C. 270.

  • 20

    I never played the roman game vs ABH. Only Lord of the Rings, which he defeated me in both times. It’s really much more simple than you’d expect and I find both the old version and new fun to play.

    Second sentence is about punic wars.
