G40 BM3 akreider2 (allies +12) vs Majikforce (axis)

I’m working on the UK turn. Is there anyway to make the sea zone numbers larger, or to see them when you click on the territory?

You can click the territory tab on the right hand side and then hover over a territory and it will tell everything about that space. You can also try different options in the view drop down menu on the top of the board. You can change color schemes and font sizes to maybe make it easier to read.

Hmm, do you think building an airbase in gibralter was a mistake? It might be if the Italians just get it. Though if the Italians hold Gibralter, and I don’t get a big advantage elsewhere the game might be mostly over.

It’s a good move. The US will be coming soon to help out. The allies have to hold Gibraltar. They can’t get locked out of the med.

I guess you assumed correctly that the French fighter wouldn’t join the air battle. But stating assumptions is good.

You are right. I forgot to inform you. I am just so used to people not intercepting when there is no chance for the interceptors to shoot at a bomber.

@akreider2 said in G40 BM3 akreider2 (allies +12) vs Majikforce (axis):

I think you mean bad odds, not zero chance? (Just making sure I know the rules here.)

No I mean no chance for the interceptor to hit the bomber. You had 1 fighter to intercept with and I had 2 escort fighters and 2 bombers. My escorts and bombers would all roll 1 die each and hit on any 1’s. Your interceptor would then roll one die and hit on 2 or less. Even if you got a hit I would just lose a fighter. Now your factory AA would then have a chance to kill my bombers at 1. But that is always the case when bombing.

Thanks for the explanation. I’m working on my move.

Sure thing. Any other questions don’t hesitate to ask.
