@jim010

Well have you figured it out yet? I suggest you try to make something out of it, only so you can learn from your mistake. I promise you you’ll become a better player when you continue a game.

@jim010

no worries

@jim010

Sure, thats fine with me. Just send me a message by the time you are ready to play. Good luck with work!

@crockett36 Hope all is well with you!

@GovZ I am fine with normal luck. I gripe about it when bad luck shows up at the worst time, but I accept it.

I could do global, I just prefer to do Europe or Pacific for quicker and shorter games. I also prefer OOB with bids.

Would like to play a game of Europe or global 2nd edition OOB - with bid.

Any interest out there? I’d like to get back into playing online.

@jim010 Looking forward to adding some IPC chips to my collection in June, and of course for North Africa in August! Great stuff!

11. Now it is the Allied turn. The same procedure is followed as before. The defending CAP fighter shoots at the incoming planes, and they get to fire back.

12. The Japanese CAP fighter misses, but the Allied planes shoot it down.

13. Both planes select the same carrier group to go after. The ships miss their AA fire, so the planes are free to attack.

14. Both planes score a hit on the carrier and it is sunk. Planes must now return home.

15. Planes on both sides must land on their carriers. The US plane lost its carrier, and so must ditch at sea (destroyed). Both sides may reshuffle the composition of their groups. At this point, the Japanese player decides if they wish to retreat, and they choose to continue the battle instead. The Allies, however, choose to retreat, The Allied ships return to port and the Japanese fleet continues on its original mission.

@barnee

Hopefully people will see that I take care of the game and buy it. I need to get rid of stuff.

Well, if you are interested in more pieces, you can buy mine. They are just collecting dust in my house.

As for the ammo box, I make them.

Asking the community here which map version would be preferred from below, or there a combination not represented? The game is European theatre, but there is an Asian/Pacific half as well. Game will be offered through HBG.

Historical flags only on capitals or important cities. Territories outside of homeland use lighter shade of colour.
