Stalingradski doesn’t believe in a passive Russia!  :-)

In A&A of all sorts - sitting back and letting your opponent set the tempo = death.

Pomme, do you scramble/intercept into SZ6?

USA T3 CM.tsvg

Japan will not scramble anything in sz6

However, japan WILL use 5 of his 6 kamikazes in sz17

They will be directed like this:
1st Aircraft Carrier = 2 Kamis
2nd Aircraft Carrier = 2 Kamis
3rd Aircraft Carrier = 1 Kamis

The program will then ask you if you want to conduct bombard shore in Iwo Jima, PLEASE ANSWER NO, because kamis stop any bombard per Alpha 3 rules, and the Triple A program does allow bombard in this situation.
Please take the time to correctly select targets for kamis.

oh well Antholin, forgot to mention to you that carrs don’t have to move until non-combat…  Kind of important, I’ll take the blame on that one since I recomended that move.  Sorry.

Will post later today, hopefully sooner than later.

Thats fine, as I wanted to bring as much with me as possible for the assault. And I think we made out pretty well against the Kamikaze strikes.

Yeah, we were very surprised to have the chance to use kamis.
Every surface warship could have been moved on NCM since Kamis can’t target transports.

But indeed, to loose only 2 planes is a lucky result considering 3 ACs were targeted.

Oh well, live and learn. I dread the thought if the Kamikaze pilots had more Sake in their systems. Then all would have been truly lost. Game on sirs.

Hey, I’m not sure what to say.  I double checked this time with Kreighund on HGD site, since I was wrong before.  He clarified that technically it is illegal to make noncombat move during combat except in volatile seazones and therefore you cannot trigger kamikazes with non-combat units…

Technically he could have brought the bombarding ships, and technicallty this isn’t a tournament game, but I thought I would straighten out the rules for us newbies to tripleA.

Shall I just continue on?  I’m content with whatever and am truly not trying to be a rules-monger.  I just want to be ready on this platform for our next round of torunament.

Here is what i propose : edit the game, and get that AC and 2 planes back.
If we happen to have the possibility of using kamis again,  we’ll roll them with the forum’s dicey and edit the results.

Thanks Axisplaya - for my part, I’ve never seen that rule have to be adjudicated before, and I learned something new from it.

It will probably bite us later with those kamikazes…

here is edited map.
