16League G40 BM 2.0 Oysteilo (Allies) vs Alex (first-timer)


  • Nah, I dont believe in redos and those things, and I also didnt accept those things when offered to my benefit. Its just the game, sometimes. God knows I complained about dice with no end, at times.
    I agree that it looks not good for you, Italy will have Egypt one way or another. You probably wont hold Iraq for long. Probably should have built two Marines with Italy, that was a BM newbie mistake. Your UK Atlantic ships also dont have a good chance to survive. Japan also has options.

    Its either continue and try to salvage, or concession. I am sorry it turned out that way so early.


  • No need to be sorry, it is just a game like you say. Give me until tomorrow before I post. I kind of hate to give up so early.  Maybe this is a good opportunity to try “crazy” stuff  :-D


  • But can I consider the placement of my airbase?  It should probably not go to Egypt


  • well, problem is, if you would have put it on Gibraltar, I might have needed to take it with Italy, as you would make it untakeable with Uk and US reinforcements in rd 2.
    It would be a nice bonus for Italy, but its ok, place it elsewhere, dont worry about it!

    I won’t place it in Egypt or Gibraltar ,  but I asked if you could hold on with Italy.


  • just place it wherever you want, its ok.

    I didnt think about placing the AB issue when you asked for that, but I see now that you could easily have meant that. Hindsight, sorry.

  • you were absolutely right, np


  • Intercept London with up to 4 figs vs 2 strats, 3 figs and one tac?
    Scramble to 110 with up to 3 figs?

  • Oysteilo, I was made aware of, correctly so, that my handling of the SBR was incorrect. I will roll in the Forum which plane is hit, one of the two strats or the tac, and I will roll the damage accordingly. TripleA doesnt differentiate, just rolls summarily. Apologies, wasnt intentional. I think you can do Russia nonetheless in the meantime, has no impact.


  • ok. I haven’t had time to look at the file and I am slow as there are unplanned things happening at work. I will try to do Russia this evening.

    How do you propose to do the edit? I think it is fine to differentiate between the planes. i am more curious to how you will handle the damage to the factory if one strat bomber is down. If the tac is down I guess the current situation stands


  • if the tac is down, stands. if one bomber is down, I reroll the other and the damage on the airbase. I really see no better way, but I am open to better suggestions!


  • @alexgreat:

    if the tac is down, stands. if one bomber is down, I reroll the other and the damage on the airbase. I really see no better way, but I am open to better suggestions!

    I think it is nice to have this sorted out before russia goes if possible. Probably does not matter. If one strat is down I am not so happy to have lets say 8 damage to my factory.  :-(

    One way is to roll on forum and decide that if you roll 1-3 the 5 damage goes to air base, if you roll 4-6 the 5 damage goes to factory.

    But do it the way you like, I guess it doesnt really matter. Dire times for London anyway


  • hmmmm, are tacs +2 also? If not the tac damage must be 2 less if you choose my way. But do it the way you feel is right


  • tacs are not +2.

    tac attacks air base, the two strats the factory, that stands of course.
    If a strat is hit, we can oc roll which one of the two will survive and take the damage already rolled for the other, np.

    I will roll now, here, if I remember the commands, so Russia can go forward with knowledge of the German situation!


  • 1-2, tac down; 3-4, bomber with higher damage down; 5-6, bomber with lower damage down.
