I used barnstorming over St Lo. Also, during the combat move phase some kind of weird corruption happened so I had to edit in the fighters after opening a new file. The German AA missed south of St Lo.

Your transport (and infantry) have been sunk. I have corrected the production (loss of 7 since you didn’t capture the Philippines), units (loss of the transport and infantry), and territory ownership.
I didn’t see a way to subtract 3 kamikaze counters. I am down to 3.

OK
Why am I not asked for kamikaze when doing the assault? It annoys me. But according to the rules you are right

The program has some gaps, this is one that apparently isn’t listed.

OK
Why am I not asked for kamikaze when doing the assault? It annoys me. But according to the rules you are right
From page 16 in the pacific rulebook:
The Japanese player has the ability to make
a special defensive strike against Allied
surface warships. Japan is allowed to make
6 kamikaze strikes during the game. These
strikes can be made only in sea zones that
contain the Kamikaze symbol: those surrounding Japan,
Okinawa, Iwo Jima, Formosa, Marianas, and Philippines.
If an Allied player attacks Japanese units in or declares an
amphibious assault from one of these sea zones, the Japanese
player can announce at the beginning of this phase that he or
she intends to launch one or more kamikaze strikes in that sea
zone. They are resolved before any combat begins.
The Japanese player must declare how many kamikaze
strikes will be made, in which sea zone(s) they will
be used, and which enemy ship will be struck by each
kamikaze before any dice are rolled. For each declared
strike, 1 Kamikaze token must be spent (no actual air unit
is involved) and will be removed from the game after the
strike is resolved. A kamikaze strike can target any specific
enemy surface warship (not a submarine or transport)
belonging to the attacking power. More than one kamikaze
strike can be made against the same ship. Kamikaze strikes
hit on an attack roll of 2 or less. If a hit is scored, it must
be applied to the chosen unit. Surface warships that are
destroyed by a kamikaze strike (capital ships still take 2
hits) are immediately removed and will not participate in
the subsequent battle. A kamikaze strike prevents offshore
bombardment supporting an amphibious assault in that
sea zone, whether or not the strike is successful (place the
used Kamikaze token in the sea zone until you resolve the
amphibious assault to remind you that the ships may not
bombard).The way I read this is that in this situation you can not declare kamikaze, because there are no warships in the sz AND I am not attacking any Japanese units. If you had an inf in the Phil I think you could declare on the transports.

Dang, I missed the part about the transport. Ok.
I will reverse all that on my next turn.

I dont know, maybe you are right after all…… I will post to the forum and see what people say
-
No, it is pretty clear. I cannot target your transports with kamikaze attacks. I made an error, I didn’t realize transports were not subject to kamikaze attacks.

but in the first paragraph it says something about an amphious assult. what I am doing is not an amphibious assult?
-
Ok so it is two parts:
Part 1, when you can do it: if the enemy (you) are attacking Japanese ships and/or conduct an amphibious assault on a japanese territory.
You were conducting an amphibious assault. So this part is satisfied.Part 2, what can be targeted: surface warships but not submarines or transports.
I cannot target your transport. (Note: if you had a cruiser or battleship taking part in the amphibious assault I could have targeted them. Targeting a Destroyer not taking part in an amphibious assault is doubtful.)Part 2 was my error, I cannot target your transport even though you were conducting an amphibious assault.

OK so if I had a cruiser there and was doing an amphibiois assult you could target both the cruiser and the transport?
-
No, if you are conducting an amphibious assault with a cruiser and transport I could target the cruiser but not the transport.
The transport can never be targeted by kamikaze attacks under any circumstances. It’s a strange rule but it is the rule.
