@mike64 question… can fighters land on a damaged carrier? I know they can’t take off from one but if the carrier is damaged on an attack can the fighters still land on it…or are the fighters lost if no landing space is available.
Mainah (X) vs Stough (L) OOB 2nd go

I meant to write- now I see it. As in , how to scramble.

@Stough
Yeah. Not intuitive. The button says scramble, even if 0 planes were selected. Threw me off the first few times. -
I mist say it is looking very rosy for the allies right now! The axis might have to gamble against long odds. And i review the game to see where it turned - and it was the russian stack in china that stalled everything. I didnt see it coming - and japan had to spend time and money and give yp half of china because of it. I have got to figure out how to beat that next time!
-
Yep, I think the Axis is done.
I had no idea before the game started that I would do that in China. I always looked at those Russian guys as belated reinforcements or a turn stall from their original position. But yeah, that was a game changer.
-
What might be helpful to both of us , once each of these games are over, considering how new were are, is to do an AAR. An after action review and try to find 3 things(or more if you want) to comment on for our opponent. I would welcome any criticism of choices I’ve made. Anything that will help me to be a better player.
Are you cool with playing the Axis one more time before we switch? I hate to forecast too much, but I think both of us have the same desire to get better and I think we’ll be swapping games for a long time.

Are we still doing this one?

@Stough
Yes to AAR. Yes to another round as axis before swapping. And ues to still playing this one. Too much on the board to just walk.
ME with a sino-soviet twist.
I see one way out of this. Not great plan, poor odds. But i got to try, as there is still a smidge of hope. -
Cool to all three.
