Frood, how do I miss you? Where's your calculator?!!!

Hm - so it is possible for China to rake in 5 infantry per turn after all.  Interesting.

Oh, and Wilson2, you didn’t give credit to Japan as being a possible controller of the UK.  With long range heavy bombing paratroopers, anything’s possible.

Since there was no sea battle in sea zone 12 and the destroyer did not participate in the amphibious assault, it did not participate in combat and is therefore free to move in noncombat movement.

Oh then your not that guy…

This guy named randyjohnwayne on ebay claims he has games with upwards of 20,000 pieces at one time. He sells hundreds of pieces for AA games and hoards the good ones. I chatted with him on the phone before and i got some incredible stories of 1 hour battles just to resolve one freaking battle!

And no i have no idea how his games get to this level of madness. I guess his playing group does not like combat unless they get thousands of pieces.

I would surely love to see a picture of these so called “Battles”

Hi

Thanks for the link, unfortunately  that thread gets totally hijacked about half way through and turns into a “let’s buff China” fest  :evil:

The general consensus seemed to be that the NO’s are required (although they might tip it a little the other way).

Has any one else tried NO’s plus “Dardenelles closed to ships” optional yet?

Yes, this is correct.  Having no destroyers is a pretty big mistake.

Great , black_elk, I’ll start giving you + karma’s, soon you will be a legend
