@regularkid Sure the change around SZ 6 helps, and since the development of a “safe harbor” for Japan was intended, I guess I need to try a few more games to see how it plays out.

The point about the Carolines is that Japan can hang out on “their side” and use the Caroline’s mobility buff to dominate the Central Pacific – without being threatened by a US build up in Hawaii. This really hampers US development since they no longer have a clear path from W.Coast to Queensland, the typical build up point to attack the extended Japanese fleet.
Japan can build and control all of the Pacific, while the US is left hanging out in Hawaii because they can’t send forces anywhere without escorts.

Scramble to the invasion. Can put up a lot of air. Won’t win, but could kill many ships.

[AndrewAAGamer]

Denmark: Scramble 3 Italian Fighters from Western Germany and 1 German Fighter from SZ 116.
Norway: Scramble 5 German Fighters from SZ 116.

[AndrewAAGamer]

Nevermind I guess. I just ran the battle and though it asked me to scramble it did not conduct combat. What am I missing? Did I need an infantry in both locations?

[surfer]

Oh dear. I forgot the land scramble rules…I was only thinking of water routes. But it did the same for me. Obviously, I prefer this interpretation of the scramble rule–need land unit to defend, but seems like rules are changing.

[AndrewAAGamer]

@surfer Yeah, I think when we started this game carriers and air bases protected Land and Sea areas. I think they have now changed the rules that a least a single land unit or single ship has to be in the sea zone for the planes to be able to scramble to it. Makes it interesting to play a game when they change the rules in the middle of it. :)
