No, but the Japanese turn might change where you put it! I’ll wait for your decision.

Are you sure you don’t want to move the Egyptian destroyer? Not too late to change it.

Good move to send the fighters in Africa. Interesting move, that IC in Egypt. All hands on Africa! Should be a very interesting game.

I went in with the Russians anyway, but it cost me everything I had!

My Russians are hurting really bad in Ukraine. Taking 2 losses to take the country and making you suffer none with my 7 guys kinda screws up my plans to let loose on your tanks in the counter-attack.  :x

Well, if you don’t like the rules, take your issue with the developers! I don’t know why they decided to make it so lost fighters don’t fire back. Maybe it’s to simulate fighters caught off guard and shot down on the airstrip before they could take to the air. Who knows…

All I know is that I like the rule as it allows for just the right amount of defense against SBR, without making it downright impossible to SBR at all. I think it gets the balance just right.

Normally I buy 11 INF and 2 ART with Germany round 1, but considering all the stuff you brought to Ukraine plus all the losses you took in West Russia, I decided it was time to go on the offensive and buy 3 bombers!

It’s not a stupid rule, it prevents defensive fighters from being too good. With Global rules, in order to have the same number of losses on average for the attacker and defender, you need to bring 1 plane for every defending plane. In 1942.2, with defenders hitting on a 2 but not hitting at all if destroyed, you need to bring 3 attackers for every 2 defenders. Without this, you’d need to bring 2 for 1, which would be overpowered for the defender in my opinion.

I don’t know why you insist on rolling them in the forum though. Like I said, it will be easier to let TripleA roll them and just adjust accordingly whenever an attacker made a hit or a defender rolled a 2. TripleA shows you the dice results, so it should be very easy to adjust whenever this happens. I’ll finish my turn and send you a save.

No, in 1942.2, they can’t hit back if they’re destroyed (just like hits made by subs). Of course, since TripleA only implements Global rules for interceptors, it doesn’t take that into account.
