    Here’s what goes into that question :)

    1. I know the program rolls that battle out automatically (without stopping) because there is no retreating, so I can’t say “well, you clicked through the battle without stopping”.
    2. You did move a lot of non-bombarding units into zone 42 during the combat movement phase which should technically only be moved in the non-combat phase if you were not attacking the transport.
    3. The ANZAC transport can’t do much, immediately, if left alone.
    4. It’s obvious you didn’t intend to attack 2 infantry with 2 infantry with no bombardment support, given the ANZAC transport is not an immediate threat. Also, your infantry are extremely important in that position at Java, and there is an airbase to boot.

    I absolutely allow rolling the 2 battleships and putting the ANZAC transport back on. It is excellent and respectful of you to tell me to do whatever, thank you!

    Also, I’m happy we’re enjoying the game and that you have many options to think about.

    On-line gaming practice is that the dice that have already been rolled should be kept as much as makes sense.

    Therefore, your round 1 miss and my round 1 single hit will stand. (You will lose at least 1 infantry)

    So I will roll 2 battleships and we go from there.

    Both ANZAC infantry destroyed by battleships, one hits back in round 1 as you rolled, so Japan takes Java with 1 infantry. I’ll make edits and play from there.
    Don’t apologize, it was no problem.

    Edited it again on the map I’m using…

    I really want to skip this scramble decision, but I can see that becoming problematic, so I’d better go by the book.

    4 fighters, 1 sub against 1 destroyer off Midway. Do you scramble the 1 fighter to defend?

    You are probably sleeping now, because it is 7:40 PM here.
    Since Me1945 and Farmboy are waiting, and because I’m 99% sure you won’t scramble, I’ll proceed.
    You can decide to scramble before moving Italy and we can roll it.
    Because of what you said after Java, I’m sure you’re fine with this.

    OK! On with US/China/UK 12 then

  • Hello Gamerman,

    thank you for Java and sorry for this chaos.
    I will pay attention to my combat moves. You are right, only 2 bs attack. I hope this was the right decision with Java but Wake is only 1 ipc more and I need all ships and NZ is hard to defend.
    But biggest problem is your position with the Russians :cold_sweat:


  • Yes, no scramble from Midway.

    1 hit in France `?

    Again, no problem at all.
    Java was definitely the right decision J12
