Snow Cats and Wolf units are better for attack, than defense. Troopers are cheaper and just as good for defense use.
Round Two will have more condensed info., in order to speed up play.
Red attacks from the flank the main Blue Base, but is beaten off.
Blue is force to just rebuild in order to protect Main Base and Apogee Base.
Black uses special ability and attacks Apogee Base, with three Wolf units, defeats all six defenders of 5 Snow Cats and trooper, for a lost of one unit. Game over, Apogee Base falls.
To just end the round, Black reinforces undefended main Black base.
White attacks and captures main Black Base, reinforces Main White Base. Still moot, Cobra won, if you house rule it, pretty much a tie, as each side lost a main base. On points a 3 points VP lead for Cobra, 9 land motorized units each side, a trooper for Joe, 2 C and a Jet for Joe.
Next for Scenerio Two, majority of Combatants will be Cruisers, with an air and a land unit, for a symbolic combine arms. All other air and land units value will be converted into Cruisers.
Red…
Next for Scenerio Two, majority of Combatants will be Cruisers, with an air and a land unit, for a symbolic combine arms. All other air and land units value will be converted into Cruisers.
Round One:
Red consolidate forces for a attack on Blue Main Base, builds two 2 more C, while another C picks up trooper. 2 C lost attacking Blue Base, but, takes put 2 Blue C.
Blue places C with trooper, builds up Blue Base with three more C, while 2 C take out 2 Black C at a 1 VP island base( while losing those Blue Cs).
Black sends C and destroys White C off Northern Greenland, moves 2 C two hexes from Blue Base, moves units to defend NP and Black bases. Builds a C for each base.
White sends 3 C towards NP base, sends Jet to White Base, builds 3 Cs for Apogee(1) and White(2) Bases.
Round Two:
Red builds up more forces for pending attack on Blue Base. Again takes out two Blue Cs for a lost of two of its own Cs(used special ability).
Blue moves up coast of Greenland 2 Cs and a trooper, to potentially threaten North Pole/Main Red Base. Also building forces to protect Blue Base. Lone C lost while taking out Red C at 1 VP island(two hexes from Blue Base). C off Greenland coast and Jet from Blue Base are lost, destroying 2 Black C in hex with a 2 VP island.
Black C off NP base is lost, taking out one of three White Cs off NP base. While building forces at NP base, and, 4 Cs leave main Black base to attack Main White Base.
White 2 C destroy Ice Bridge that connects Greenland to NP Base. Two Cs from White Base attack and destroy 2 of the approaching 5 Black Cs(the White Cs are also lost). White builds to defend its base.
Round Three:
Red attacks Blue Base, for a lost of a C, land a trooper with remaining C. Also 2 Cs from NP base attack and destroy 2 White Cs off N. Greenland( for lost of a C). Cobra wins, still House Ruling will let the round finish, builds unit at Red base.
Blue C lands a trooper on Blue Base, and, destroys defending Red trooper & C & Rattler. All for naught, as all of Blue forces are lost, the base is still in Red’s possession. Builds at Apogee Base.
Black C destroys White C off the coast of Greenland, while another Black C lands a trooper on 2 VP island just below NP base. Meanwhile a C is lost(of the three attacking Cs) on White Base(all White forces of a Jet and 2 Cs are lost). Black builds at Black and NP Base.
White builds at White base 3 Cs.
No Cobra bases are threaten, while remaining Joe Bases are hunkering down. Blue base is own by Red, but, has no forces on it. Major Cobra win, as the economy of funds has gone away from Joe. Forces left all Joe 5 Cs and 2 troopers. Cobra 7 Cs, trooper & Rattler.
In these scenarios, Cobra has a “Triangle of Support”, where by NP and Red and Black bases are in sight of each other. Easier to reinforce each other, while the Joe White Base can be easily cut off from the Apogee and main Blue Base.
Next using only Air Power, and, protecting those one C and Trooper(the latter for combine arms).
Please note Great lateness in posting, due to a internet server change over, thanks, Pellulo
Round One: Air being primary unit of power, the hunt is to destroy the lone C & Trooper( as the latter is the only unit, that can take a hex).
Red builds another Ice Hex, and, now has a ice hexes route to Main Blue Base. Flies and ships into 1 VP island, that is two hexes from Main Blue Base. Now has 6 Rattlers and C with trooper.
Builds Rattler on main Red Base.
Blue hunkers down on Main Blue Base, with three Jets flying in, for a total of 5 jets, C, &, Trooper. Builds Jets at Main Blue Base & Apogee Base.
Black Rattler from NP Base attacks a White Jet in Northern Greenland(both are lost). Ditto for a Rattler attacking White Main Base, from a 1 VP island.
C moves from off Black Main base towards NP base. Another Rattler flies into main Black base, from 1 VP island just below the base. Also builds another Rattler on its Main Blk. base.
Two Rattlers and trooper move onto Ice hex that connects from NP base to Northern Greenland. Also two Rattlers land onto Ice Hex two hexes from White Main Base.
White hunkers down on Main White Base, with C & Jet arriving there(total 2 Jets & C & trooper). Builds at Apogee Base 2 Jets.
Round Two: Red attacks Main Blue Base with 6 Rattlers, C, and, trooper. Blue Base defended by 6 Jets, C & Trooper. What is left are 2 Rattlers and a trooper. Cobra has won the game!
From ice hex from NP Base and Main Red Base, three more Rattlers fly into 1 VP island two hexes from Main Blue Base.
Had brought a Rattler for Main Red base.
To finish the round, Blue buys for Apogee Base, two Jets. While a lone Jet attacks 2 Black Rattlers and a trooper, from Apogee Base to ice hex that connects Greenland to NP Base. Both sides lose an aircraft.
Black trooper takes over a 1 VP hex, on Northern Greenland. While a Rattler joins the trooper, and, a C moves towards the trooper. Builds a Rattler on NP base.
Also from Main Black base, two Rattlers join another two Rattlers on Ice Hex, that is 2 spaces from White Main Base.
White sends two Jets from Apogee Base and destroyed the Black Rattler and trooper in Northern Greenland(Jets are lost too).
From Main White Base a landing by C for a Trooper and two Jets, attack Ice Hex, that is defended by 4 Black Rattlers( two spaces from Main White Base). All from both sides are lost.
White had built for both Main White Base and Apogee Base a Jet.
The fall of the dice could have wiped out all of Red attacking force, but, they had the good rolls.
In upper half of the board, only a White Jet is there, while the lower half of the board, are 1 White & 2 Blue Jets, six Red and 1 Black Rattlers, Black C & Red Trooper.
For this scenario I skip the use of an Aircraft Carrier, as purchasing them, and, having air crafts on them, would slow down the game. Maybe next time, just give each side a one time non replaceable A.C…
In the GI Joe Scenario 2, only Blue starts with a A.C.
Next Scenario, Infantry is the main units, with a C and Jet/ Rattler, for Combine Arms.
Round One will be an attempt by Cobra using Ice Hexes to move troops, to attack Joe Bases. No way one C can carry enough troops for a massive attack.
Still attacking infantry attacks on a one, while defending infantry defends at twice of an attack on a two.
Red an ice hex that connects to another ice hex, that now connects to the mainland & Main Blue Base. Moves from VP of 1 island 6 troopers, Rattler flies to this new ice hex, C brings from Main Red Base 2 troopers to the island, trooper moves down coast towards Blue Base, from NP base eight troopers move towards Ice Hex that connects towards Northern Greenland.
Already from that hex, 6 troopers attack 3 Blue Troopers on N. Greenland 1 VP Hex. Hex taken for only lost of one trooper.
Builds 3 troopers NP base and 3 troopers Main Red Base.
Blue lands from 1 VP Island 2 troopers from a C, on Greenland Coast, just below Red forces. While moving 2 troopers from Apogee Base towards landed forces. From Main Blue Base Jet attacks Rattler on nearby Ice Hex, both are lost.
Builds two trooper for Main Blue Base, &, three for Apogee Base.
Black attacks with 5 troopers N. Greenland, defended by 3 White Troopers. All lost both sides, while 7 troopers move from NP base to same ice hex.
Meanwhile 4 troopers from Main Black base& land hex, start moving towards main White Base.
Also C from that base, moves towards 4 troopers on VP 1 island, just two hexes below Main White Base.
Along with Rattler attacking Jet and destroying it, landing on Ice Hex that has 2 Black troopers. Builds 4 troopers on Main Black base & 8 for NP Base.
White C lands 2 troopers to claim a 1 VP Island only 2 hexes from Greenland. Two additional troopers reinforce 6 troopers attacking ice hex of Black forces of a Rattler & 2 troopers. All Black forces lost, for lost of two White Troopers.
From Apogee Base three Troopers rush to their 1 VP hex in N. Greenland. Places reinforcement of trooper & Jet Main White Base. Along with 4 troopers Apogee Base.
Round Two: Red attack for Main Blue Base is faltering, equal number of troopers facing the same number of defenders, is not good. Not like the 1914 game, where you can have an an overwhelming number for an attack.
Also you need the ice hex, to get to the enemy base, still in could just become a siege force in being.
Three troopers on the way to Main Blue Base via land, C drops off 2 more troopers for a total of 8 siege troopers( Blue Base has 10 Troopers), on Ice Hex.
Meanwhile troopers are coming down to N. Greenland from NP Base. From N. Greenland 1 VP hex, four troopers attack 2 Blue Troopers, in the hex below them. Two troopers lost both sides.
New units are Rattler & two troopers for Main Red base.
Red is two hexes from Apogee Base.
Blue sends 2 troopers to attack N. Greenland hex wor…Folks in editing I lost the notes for Blue, Black, and, White.
Basically Blue is buying time, to build up forces on Greenland, while the Northern part of the island is lost to Cobra.
Black is sending allot of troopers to Apogee base, but, has suffered setbacks with White, in the upper half of the board.
White has taken the 1 VP hex, right next to main Black base. Also reduce their presence on a 1VP island.
Basically in the upper half of the board Joe is ahead with a Jet and C. Down by only a trooper(12 to 13).
While in the lower half of the board, both sides have a C and aircraft. But in troopers, there are 37 Cobra to Joe 23.
Round Three( with better editing)…
