Moves get too big for me after a few rounds,
Went with original plan, transport from Hong Kong to Singapore with 1 man to Shan, instead of grabbing 2 off Japan to Jehol.
I thought I had 3 transports aimed at India, but when I held Carolines back and then also one from Hong Kong, it got too thin

No problem.
1 US sub hit, casualty?
-
Triple A does this wrong. I don’t have to choose casualties until all your units have rolled, however, since you just have 2 subs and it’s only 1 hit and I have lots of units, I don’t mind saying I’ll lose 1 sub
-
It’s the middle of the night for me and I just came to give you a casualty choice, but I think next it’s going to roll my planes only and make you choose casualties. You wouldn’t have to choose any until you also see my ships roll.
Therefore, if you change your mind on what you take, after seeing the “2nd” ship roll, you may change your “planes defense” casualty choice of the 1st roll after seeing the 2nd. This is why I often roll mixed fleet battles on the forum, but it’s OK, you’ll just possibly have some inconveniences
-
LOL like I said it’s late.
No, next will be the “rest” of your attack roll (Triple A should have done it all at once before demanding casualties, while tracking separately which are sub hits),
so you will need another casualty choice. I’d give it in advance, but I can’t because I may start taking a mix of planes and ships depending on your number of hits.If you only hit twice, LOL, I’ll lose 2 subs

Interesting. I’ve never played the board game, so didn’t know that TripleA does the casualty selection for battles wrong (I assume it is the handling of subs not being able to hit planes which causes the difference).
Like you say, the only way to avoid this is to use dicebot and do the combat on the forum topic. I have played 50+ league games and this is the first time this has been raised, I guess most of us just don’t do mixed naval combat correctly!

Wow, you’re right, I keep hearing this with my new opponents! This is not just a technicality, if you think about it I’m sure you’ll realize it can make a significant difference in several types of circumstances.
Page 19 in the Europe manual details how to conduct combat.
Step 1 you set up the battle on the battle strip
Step 2 Submarine surprise strike or submerge
However, a destroyer prevents subs special capabilities so subs cannot surprise strike or submerge, so this step is skipped when the enemy destroyer is presentStep 3 All other attacking units fire. If step 2 didn’t apply because there was a destroyer, then all attacking units includes subs, all units roll together. But sub hits need to be distinguished so the attacker doesn’t choose plane casualties for sub hits
Defender chooses casualties. As many hits as can be assigned must be assigned.Step 4 Defending units fire
As many hits as can be assigned must be assigned. If there is no destroyer, planes can’t hit subs so planes rolls need to be distinguished from shipsThe TripleA programmers made sure surprise strike casualties were chosen before the rest of the roll, and made sure planes and subs weren’t hitting each other when there aren’t destroyers.
However, they left two holes/errors.
- When the enemy has a destroyer, Triple A still requires casualty choices for sub hits, but the enemy doesn’t have to choose those casualties until seeing the entire roll (no surprise strike, no step 2, no separate casualty choice)
- When YOU have no destroyer, Triple A requires your opponent to choose casualties after only seeing planes hits, but the opponent is supposed to see the entire roll before choosing anything.
In other words, the only time a player has to choose casualties two different times in a single round of combat is when enemy subs have surprise strike capability and those subs score at least 1 hit
Have fun rolling on the forum in the future ;)
Understanding this rule will change the game a bit for you and your opponents who didn’t realize! -
