@WILD:

I like to do J1 attack as well, but as of late in addition to the stuff you mentioned, I also sink the US Hawaiian fleet. I hit sz 26 with SS, 2 dd and 4 air units (making sure that a dd survives the Hawaii battle to block out the US San Fran fleet from counter attacking me). I then NCM 2 carriers, cruiser and BB to Wake to pick up planes. You can also use a tpt to take Wake if you fear an ill advised US air only strike (allows you to take hits on carriers and land planes safely on Wake). I also like to buy 3 transports J1 to finish off the DEI J3.

I reckon I’d scramble to this attack. It’s still a loser, just less of one.

If you’re losing a DD and the sub round 1 while killing all my ships, chances are you are losing at least one of your planes to keep the DD.

The whole USAF can reach SZ26 US1. If the SZ33 force has gone for the Philippines, which is presumably the reason for not sending 2 more planes into the attack then unless your Wake force is larger than I am thinking, it doesn’t seem to be enough to take down Pearl Harbour, even with the plane being replaced from Japan.

@Odonis:

max defence, yes

Frustrating!

4 hits from 4 2s. Next thing the USSR sub will hit in 110. If it does, take the DD as a casualty.

Scramble orders in SZ 110?

No scramble. I don’t know why I insisted on escorting that SBR. Cost me a CV and a fighter.

Yes. That is why I was surprised to read that the OP expected the US to be occupying SZ6.

I dislike the fighter buy on USSR1. You have plenty of factories at this time, no threat of SBR and no need whatsoever for the fighter. Better to buy it later when you are building solely in Moscow and can’t spend more than 30 IPC on inf. It is useful later but mostly only needed when the German bombers are in SBR range.

Artillery is a bit more useful because you can at least threaten a counter attack with it.

I would normally put down a blocker in SZ37 to prevent the TTs off Hainan reaching Calcutta J3. Frees up your infantry to be active rather than stuck on Garrison duty, which sucks. Another turn of production makes a real difference to the ability to get into Calcutta with the 3+ TTs.

Don’t you find the USA in SZ6 slows down Japan massively? Do you build a DD to force the navy out or face a Kamikaze? That really only works if your navy can come in the next turn to hold the space.

Consensus is that Sea Lion is a poor option unless it’s too easy. Many players buy 6inf + fighter UK1 to make it difficult, which is serious commitment.

I don’t think the rule needs change.

Shouldn’t you be able to load up the save, edit the rolls you’ve made since you’ve finished the combat and do the rest of the combats in the normal way?
