I am away for a few days now

gamerman01

I don’t know why I didn’t get notification of your post to this thread - it happens to me sometimes. Wow, you moved 19 hours ago.
Thanks for letting me know I have some time for the J2

Wow, the Paris disaster got compounded by your bid infantry and a wicked 2/3 on the remaining tanks. I don’t know that I can recover because of your high skill level. Need a couple of techs lol

oysteilo

I am having a hard time vs farmboy in the other game where more or less everything is below average dice.

I guess the french inf bid paid off this time. Its a silly bid but fun to do.

I think it works better in BM if you want to avoid vichy

Right! That was my first thought. I was thinking, hm, does he realize this isn’t BM lol

He came up big.

I’m already stalled on both sides of the board. Here goes.

Crockett36 interveiwed me for an hour last Thursday night -

I talked about this game briefly

I’d tell you what minutes and seconds to jump to, but… just watch it all :p

Almost done -

Was just glancing at map again when shutting down laptop -

Should have dropped all units on Kiangsi instead of Kwangtung.

If you allow

J2 Kiangsi not Kwangtung.tsvg

rolled dor tech no hits :( spent 15. Just making a save

us save.tsvg

gamerman01

It seemed to me you’d go the whole game with no tech purchase! 3 dice, you must have had dastardly plans to sink my fleet or something.

1,1,2 you were close!

oysteilo

Watch out, I will even roll tech for china from now 👍

gamerman01

Advanced artillery or jet power would just be amazing for them. Even LRA has possibilities 🎰

Holy cow, war bonds. You get that and advanced artillery and it’s over.

About attacking or ignoring subs -

Am I forgetting something? Reading the rules, it looks like the moving player can decide whether to attack subs/transports during the combat phase! Triple A asks for decisions at the beginning of the combat phase, but I don’t see that is even required.

So I guess you do not have to tell me whether you are attacking or ignoring those subs. I don’t recall such a situation, but nevertheless, I won’t send any kamikazes anyway. Since my cruisers are both at the bottom of the ocean.

And kamikazes don’t force a sea battle with the subs, so I guess I can’t stop the landing on Korea.

gamerman01

So it looks like I have to give you the kamikaze decision at the beginning of the combat phase (which I did, and the decision is zero kamikazes),
And then it appears to me you could choose whether to attack or ignore the subs until it comes time to conduct the amphibious assault on Korea (and whether to attack subs in zone 6)

Of course you’re ignoring the subs because you don’t want to risk a failure, but this is very interesting for future play for each of us.

I was thinking you had to declare whether you were attacking subs at the beginning of the combat phase (probably due to Triple A) but I can’t find anything in the rulebook that says you have to. Let me know if you don’t understand what I’m trying to say.

oysteilo

I kind of understand what you are saying. See top of page 120 in the global Q and A thread and the following dialog where I ask about this.

My understanding is the landing is allowed regardless of the kamikaze option/result.

gamerman01

@oysteilo Oh, sure, landing is allowed for sure

I mean the part about whether you attack the subs or not. It seems to me you don’t have to declare that with combat move, and you can even wait until that individual battle to decide. If I’m right, I never knew this before.

And I realize this morning you are taking advantage of the loophole where you can move Russia into Korea without upsetting the Mongolians. Dastardly!
