@crockett36 Hi, please ask Iron Stitch to confirm this (so that the ‘loser’ admits defeat)

@crockett36 Yes I’d be fine with that. I might look back at the game a little more too.

@panther thanks. I’ll ask.

Can someone delete this topic?

@crockett36 from my understanding you just need to post on the League results thread? Not sure if I need to do anything.

@jkeller i’ll resign. Shall we bid for the allies again?

@crockett36 said in If the object of the game was kill all Japanese capitol ship, how would you do it?,:

46 ipcs can be convoyed from the Japanese, assuming money islands and Phil, May, and Shan State.

Any competent Japanese navy can prevent that. Each sub raids on average 2 IPCs, say you want to raid Java, it takes 2 subs. A Japanese player will send a destroyer and a bunch of planes in making a profit

Note that much of that material is given to America in the set up. A big goal here is to increase the number of allied ships and planes and decrease the number of transports thus infantry. The ships and planes will accrue multiple kills and theoretically few casualties.

I’m aware of Aa guns, Italians reinforcing, etc. Until i can figure out how to have a more efficient shuttle and an unbreakable flotilla, I choose flotilla and the 1-3-2-2-4-2-1. Bb-cr-infantry-art-fig-tac-bom. The 447 sounded better.

@crockett36

Dont worry about it. :)

@sire-fred Caroline is off limits til turn 4 and ql is useful for operations in the far south. That is convenient for the Japanese. They can threaten Calcutta and shield themselves at the same time.

@sonjingohan i’ll work on another video today if i can.

@dawgoneit wow i pray for your healing.

@bvandyke01 benuk9.tsvg

@crockett36 Hey. We can start a new game.

Hope all is well. Thoughts about the game? Battle plan after a failed Moscow crush was to grab the Middle East. That mistake in the mid game was devastating.

Obviously abandoning the money islands to grab Egypt was a sentimental act, not wise economically.

Could be simplified even further by a build up for six transports hitting SFE about the time that IJN rounds the Malacca strait. And every turn after, six tanks. Of course, it looks like a KJF, but you would be committing 100 to Pac but send them or some of them through Siberia to Moscow.
