17L G40 BM JDOW (Allies) vs VonAlba (Axis)

and btw, as i said before: loading units during combat move phase is not legal unless they are unloaded into amphibious assaults.

technically, you cannot bring in the cruiser or battleship with the marine into 55 dring combat move phase.

you have an overkill anyway so no need to bother now, but technically you would have to move the cc or bb with the marine during ncm and that ship could not participate in the battle in 55.

Go ahead, the AA gunners in the Chinese jungle are waiting to take Japanese pilots as prisoners. RATATATATATA :evil:

Its incredible. Your ground units are just invincible.

You had bad dice in 111 and Morocco and my Anzac DD hit on the water.

I believe except that I have 0/20 @2 or so on the ground?

my whiffs really add up.

I mean, you had 111 and Morocco but you got the gift to lose no plane in 91 where you were supposed to lose 2-3 on average and had an almost 20-30% chance of a total disaster.
On the ground I had (including Morocco) 36 shots @2 and scored 6 hits total and 0/3 AA.

I am six!!! hits below average on the ground + 3 AA misses.

I also had the good French attack at Holland though, so I was not complaining. However with your continuously flawless Japan dice plus the rather poor Russian dice it is really getting annoying.

There seems to be something wrong with the gamefile you created.
We are supposed to play BM3, right?

You would get an NO for Iwo and Oki then for 3 IPC, right?

Also, there seems to be a bug with the US complexes, they did not get large, however this can be done manually.

Boy, what should I do against that Japan?

You are invincible when attacking. When attacking, you literally lost 2 ground in Hunnan J1 and THAT’S IT! Zero losses after round 1.
And now you kill 5 Chinese, with your 3 stupid guys, of course your DD hits and of course your sub scores 3 convoy damage.

Boy, this is really getting out of balance man :-/

Time for a break please. Could you PLEASE return to 111 and Morocco-mode? I need to feel again how a defense hit looks like.

Please note: It seems that Japan can add another 3 IPC? We play BM3 including the Iwo/oki NO, right?

Seems so to me? I am playing BM3 for the first time and as far as I know, Japan is getting an NO for Iwo and Oki and being at war with Japan. Correct?
I just like you to confirm. If you do, you can add 3 IPC to Japan. (and from now every time you fulfill the requirements for the NO)

“Japan is getting an NO for Iwo and Oki and being at war with Japan”

at war with US of course:D

Seriously, the dice of this game now officially SUCK.

It feels just unfair what happened after G1.

Since the Morocco battle I have 0/19@2 on the ground plus 0/3 AA.

That could make a notable negative streak in my track record.
