I just realized I should have saved the sub, I’m still disoriented!

But you already moved - yes it’s a good idea to keep it moving before your opponent can change his mind!

gamerman01

This is fun, classic is so wild, battleships and bombers dropping like flies, and the incomes are so low in comparison. This is going to continue to be very fun for me, thanks for challenging me to 2 games

I can’t play too many or it will mess me up in my next G40 playoff game

gamerman01

That turn makes me glad the transport in the Med shot down my bomber. As lucky as I’m getting, maybe I should go for tech. NOT

@The_Good_Captain said in Axis and Allies "Classic" 2nd Edition - x2 Player Aids:

Axis and Allies Classic, 2nd Edition
“Not-so-Obvious” Rules List:

Column Rolling – In ALL combats, dice are rolled by individual column from lowest to highest. Casualties are applied BEFORE rolling the next column’s attack. (Page 18)

I don’t think I ever knew this rule before. I think Iron Blitz CD maybe did it right, but I forgot.

I only attacked twice and column rolling didn’t matter in either. I guess it’s on you that you didn’t ask for casualties when you attacked (by column).

Anyway, I’m going to roll the Hawaii naval battle by column (page 18)

gamerman01

Triple A rolls them all at once and it shouldn’t. If I’m understanding this correctly, it means we’re going to have to roll many of the battles on the forum and can’t do it in TripleA. Not a big deal, just kinda surprised the TripleA programmers didn’t design it for this, the actual rules.

Man, this really increases the attacker’s advantage.

I get lucky again,
Do you lose the carrier and a plane, or both planes?

kwaspek104

@gamerman01

I’ll go with the carrier.

gamerman01

Thanks for the quick comeback -

gamerman01

Wow! All 8 units hit!!

And I got sloppy - I should have established 2 more retreat routes.

gamerman01

Man, battleships are bad, especially when the bombardment casualties can fire back.

Keeping the bomber, all other units are destroyed in a single round.
Don’t have time to finish now, time for church.
