13L G40.2 Gamerman01 (Allies +9) vs. Jeff28 (Axis)
-
You would really want to scramble a fig vs. 2 bombers? Seemed like a no-brainer pass.
I can re-do the battle here if you want. I guess I should have asked but assumed you’d rather me move as I’ve been slow to respond.
–Jeff
I’m not upset - just surprised. Don’t worry about it this time, just please be more conservative with future assumptions - thanks

What do airborne forces do?
They are paratroopers.
You can send 1 or 2 infantry at any territory within 3 spaces of an airbase that you are attacking with at least one other ground unit. They are subject to AA fire.

Forgot to edit the art to a mech until after I posted
This one’s right -
Isn’t it kinda unfair to change a purchase? Is that standard A&A.org practice?
-
I changed it before my combat move was over.
I didn’t realize you could scramble from Kwangsi and I didn’t ask to take it back
If you want me to stick with my artillery, it’s really insignificant - go right ahead. And place it in London instead of Iraq.
-
You can see from the time stamps that I wanted to change my purchase before I rolled any dice.
If you were playing face to face, would you not let a guy change his purchase when he’s doing his combat moves?
Yes, it’s common to allow a change in purchase during combat moves, and I would always allow that and have no problem with it.
If you don’t want me to do it in the future, say the word. Again, this change was extremely minor.
-
Why not just reload the file if you haven’t done combat and start over so the edit is avoided?
-
Because you already rolled tech dice I guess?
-
I get it now, it’s fine.
-
Because you already rolled tech dice I guess?
Yeah, then you’d have to edit the money.
I guess I don’t try too hard to avoid edit mode. It’s inconvenient to reload. -

Going to have to look up the paratroopers for Germ turn. Are they an inf carried by an air unit out of a airbase for attack?
So any undefended territory w/in 3 of Moscow or Novo later you can take? Can you send more than one to a territory? How many maximum for a territory and turn?
Thx.
