Yeah; I didn’t run the calculator so I’m not sure what was likely to happen but; total bloodbath.
-
I seem to have had the edge if you look at the calculator below. I honestly thought I was totally in the clear and did not count either. Did not think of your 4 bombers from US though!
-
I lucked out! It won’t save me though. My play has been confused. My last Allied effort I overcommitted the US to EUR; but this game I think I’ve balanced too much. I’ve never tried a pure KJF; which I may do my next time out as Allies. As Axis I can never seem to take Moscow whereas when I’m the Allies I can never seem to keep it lol. Not sure what I’m doing wrong but I keep losing games. Japan is a juggernaut, and you can replace your fleet faster than the US can. I’ll stick around for a few more rounds; maybe I’ll get lucky again in Moscow. But you have the edge for sure!
-
Yes, I believe axis will win when Japan takes Hawaii and Calcutta right? I have only played with friends before in a live setting and we never go for the victory cities. Someone usually gives in after awhile.
I agree that Allies are hard and especially where to put your money each round as US. As far as I know Allies need to work together more. Usually when I play them it looks like this game with every country for themselves (and then I lose hehe). US needs to land fighters in Calcutta and such. My friend said that the best transport killer is ANZAC fighters on US carriers.
If you like we can swap teams after this game?
-
Sure, happy to rematch. Where does he station the US carriers; Caroline’s?
-
It’s more a matter of gaining extra movement spaces. If the carrier moves 2-3 spaces on the US turn and then on ANZAC’s turn you take-off from the carrier with the fighter you have practically gained an extra 2-3 movement spaces and can surprise Japan :)
-
@TheShrike But we finish this game first, right?
-
Yes, I am not conceding yet. We will see what happens in Moscow, and whether I can protect Sydney and Honolulu.

So, I actually reloaded the game to make sure I hadn’t forgotten to select a scramble for you in reference to the ANZAC invasion of Korea; because it didn’t scramble the Tactical Bomber and I thought I didn’t select it. Then it did the same thing again. I selected your TacB to intercept the amphibious landing and the screen like, flashed, and then no battle occurred between it and the BB. Is that because TacB’s can’t intercept alone? Or did it glitch because you ought to have about a 33% chance at sinking the BB and stopping the invasion.
-
@TheShrike Sorry to butt in again, but as I understand it only the ANZAC marine was in combat as it is the ANZAC turn, not the US battleship therefore the japanese plane couldn’t scramble. You’ve found an interesting loophole!

Interesting! Absolutely accidental; as a veteran of a few games with me, you know I’m no strategic genius…

@TheShrike Haha that is interesting. It seems to have worked out now at least. Thank you @wizmark for your feeback.
