@Mutu98

Way back right after the Millennium I played a game of Pacific with a gentleman on Days of Infamy using this type of system. We carried over all less than 6 pips from roll to roll, as pips not equaling 6 never hit, and even from battle to battle. So if I had a remainder of 4 at the end of a battle, my next battle got that 4 added in to any remainder.

It was as close to a “no dice” game we could come up with.

One unintended consequence we found was the ability to “manipulate” battles. You could roll a battle that you were sure of winning that would have a nice remaining total and then use that remainder on a battle that was going to be close and the remainder pushed it over the edge.

Since we only played it once we did not use a system to fix this but when I now do testing using Average Dice I always randomly roll first to determine battle order to avoid this issue.

Each artillery may only roll 1 die. However, you may have as many artillery as available all fire at the same target(s) so any attacking planes would be shot at by multiple artillery if available. (They are one attacking source and one defending source per zone)

Roll 1 die for each artillery in the zone

@Glasi

WELCOME!

Okay, I assume you posted this for feedback. I would not be interested in this map at all.

One, the pieces are way too large in comparison to the territory spaces. In many cases one unit takes up the entire territory.

Two, even though the map appears to be very large, (what… 4 Costco tables… is that 12x10 feet?) the actual combat areas are way too small. There is not a single combat unit in all of Europe!!!

Three, because of this the map has a huge amount of blow up boxes on the sides where all the units are. I dislike this approach very much; I don’t like blow up boxes, I want to see the units on the map itself. I can’t imagine trying to play a game where I have to constantly refer to the blow up boxes to figure out exactly what units are truly in an area.

My advice, kill the blow up boxes, make the actual territories larger and shrink the unit size. Good Luck.

L24 OOB LL AndrewAAGamer (X) vs Myygames (L +60)

Myygames wins. Still can’t figure out how to beat the Yunnan Stack with a high bid.

https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/41835/l24-oob-ll-andrewaagamer-x-vs-myygames-l-60/51

Thank you for the game!

I wanted to try something different and see if the Japanese could help the Germans take Moscow fast enough to make up for the Yunnan Stack. Obviously, it is not going to work. Can’t figure out how to combat that Yunnan Stack.

Congratulations Farmboy!!!

The reason for the Axis Minor units are threefold.

1. To represent the other forces in the area that were not German units.

2. To increase the firepower, especially defensively, of the Axis on the Regional Map.

3. To reduce the firepower of the Axis on the Stalingrad Map.

Much like the 2 additional ANZAC troops in Egypt for Global 1940, the Axis Minor units help defend an area but they do not significantly increase the offensive firepower of that same area.

@AndrewAAGamer

We attac: Kremenskaya, Koutluban, Vertyachi, Kalach, and Buzinovka on turn 1

Thanks, that sounds pretty good.

You are missing Gromoslavka; and I assume the 3 Russian infantry then slide into Abganerovo Station to make that battle go longer. While not a total disaster, that could be an issue as then the Tinguta battle is fighting without supplies which is certainly not ideal.

I would rethink hitting Gromoslavka with 4 infantry and an artillery, all minor axis. While that is an even battle on G1, 6 vs 6, on the Russian counterattack it is most likely 2 vs 8 so the Russians die faster and can’t assist in other battles. It is key to clear the regional board asap so to get into the City board fast.
