Scramble from India?
Scramble from Hawaii?

[FlyingBadger]

Scramble from India?

Yes, all planes.

Scramble from Hawaii?

Yes, all planes.

[gamerman01]

How could I not see your reply for the last 22 hours? I’ve refreshed, I’ve checked notifications, agh. We’ve been waiting on each other.

[gamerman01]

My brain was scrambled,
I just rolled 39 in Triple A and gave you max defense, but arguably shouldn’t have.

I think we are trying to wrap this one up and the difference between me taking a sub or a destroyer off is almost completely inconsequential.

I’d better roll 26 on forum.

Again, disappointing I didn’t see your post from 22 hours ago, I was surprised you hadn’t posted but you actually did.

[gamerman01]

So now we have the very interesting lashback at Hawaii after the US fleet lunged at the main Japanese force in the Carolines. Dramatically, 4 capital ships were damaged, and ANZAC did not attempt to finish them off but to defend this revenge.

Japs bring in 2 carriers, 7 subs, 2 destroyers, 2 cruisers, 1 battleship
6 fighters, 2 tactical bombers

ANZAC defends with 2 subs, 1 cruiser
USA defends with 2 subs, 1 destroyer, 2 carriers, 7 fighters

Japs hit exactly average, 9 hits

I can’t guess at your casualties because of the mixture of units, especially because I have 7 subs and you have 1 destroyer so I don’t know what you’ll lose

9 hits to allocate, here’s the current map, thanks badger!!!

Those are some super wacky dice, and now Triple A says Japs were 6.3 hits under, wow
Those dice stats can be so misleading, but that was one crazy Yunnan battle

Need casualty choice Z26

Well, thinking about it, I’ll roll your defense and you can choose after seeing your roll, if that is necessary

As close to the 6.83 average you could get…

I’ll lose 7 subs so that I can choose 4 subs, 2 carriers, destroyer for you (I will have no subs round 2 for your cruiser to worry about)

It’s very unfortunate some big fleet battles can’t be rolled in TripleA. I sincerely hope you don’t have any qualms with how I handled the resolution of battles here, so please let me know if you have any concerns.

India is facing essentially 0 chance of survival, Hawaii has 0 chance, and it is impossible for the Allies to take them back, so 6 victory cities achieved.

Good game, and let me know if you still want my observations through UK7 and how you want to bid for game 2!

Thanks for the game, you made me nervous a lot!

Before this game I didn’t know anything about you but who you’ve played and how you did.

You’re as classy and friendly as anyone!! I hope you’ll complete the bid for game 2 and that we can start anew soon!

No qualms from me. Now that I know how to play them by the rules, handling those large and mixed naval / air battles when subs are involved is very tricky!

Yes, it’s basically been over for a round or two, but I don’t mind giving my opponent a round or two to enjoy the dominance before conceeding (and before it gets boring).

Thanks you, I have enjoyed this game. I have learned a lot just from playing against you (e.g. use of forward islands with planes in the Pacific to threaten enemy fleets) and I will go back and look at the game again to see what else I can discover.

Your choice of a G2 and J2 DOW was interesting, I don’t often face those combined so I’d like to hear if that was pre-meditated or triggered by the situation on the game board. Please send me any feedback you have on my play, any opportunity to improve my knowledge of the game is gratefully received.

Thanks for the compliment! I have enjoyed playing and testing myself A&A royalty. I have enjoyed this game, thank you patiently teaching me the correct rules. Thanks for this game Gamerman, I have enjoy the spirit in which this game has been played!

I’m happy to play again with you as the Allies, my Axis play is probably weaker than my Allies but I would like to see how you play the Allies and hopefully learn something from that. I’d be interested to see how you play with your +44 bid, but if you want to take my bid/placement then that is fine with me. I leave it up to you, feel free to set up you bid whenever you want to start.
