Just did your trick and played through a turn on local to see what would happen and saw that TripleA handles the kamikaze thing automatically. I hadn’t encountered it yet.

Yeah, you had some bad dice in Malaya with that bomber but then I matched you with terrible dice in Yunnan. I really should have taken more than just your 1 plan there.

Kamikaze question. Firstly, are we using them? I did a search of the forums and I couldn’t find any existing games where they had been used. And it appears you need to nominate how many attacks and their targets before resolving any of them. Is this correct? And can you nominate multiple kamikaze attacks against the same ship to maximise your chance of hitting it? (even if it wastes a kamikaze token if you hit with the first).

No Worries.

Accidentially did my non combat movements in together with the 1 combat move I did. Apologies about that.

Wow, clearly I’m paying attention. I read ‘western Germany’ and thought it bordered the battleship (A&A revised board placement?)

Looks like that transport is in a little bit of trouble. It’s going to take some lucky dice to escape that one :/ I should have realised when the infantry didn’t automatically capture Denmark.

I might have to use that local game trick until I get my head around the rule changes from revised.

And just to be more annoying, laptop is at work so can’t take my turn now.

Scramble in SZ112 from West Germany?

For easy reference:
SZ112:
3x UK Fighter, 1x UK Bomber
Vs
1 Damaged Battleship
Option to Scramble 3x German Fighters, 3x German Tact Bombs from West Germany)

I completely forgot about the option to scramble and thought this was going to be an easy Battleship kill… First game oopsie.
