Struggling to think of the bid which would deter it then. Extra fighter/aaa in Philippines - sub in SZ37. Can’t see any of those stopping a J1. TT in SZ39? DD in SZ62? Still reaching.
-
Interesting that you would ignore Yunnan if strengthened enough. A UK1 DOW could occur as Omega1759 did and then enough could be moved into Yunnan to make it hard to take down.
-
maybe a combo of that yunnan stack that you experienced, anzac inf in new guinea, anzac sub to protect your dd and trans, british pacific units positioned to retake FIC…
-
Yes, units bidded to retake FIC in case of a J1DOW is quite a good deterrence, and if you needed more you could bid an inf in Borneo.

A legal bid can’t prevent you putting down a blocker on Shan State. Assuming SZ36 is navally blocked, FIC is guaranteed to be holdable to J2.
Borneo is similarly illegal.

I don’t know of someone who plays with those rules, but if you prefer you can bid a mech in Burma to take back FIC on UK1.

Well they are the written default rule for league.
Did you miss my point? Japan can use one of its two inf in Siam to take down Shan State J1 which blocks this Mec.

Mech passes by Yunnan.

Oh yes. Sorry. And if Yunnan is fortified that is likely an option.

and you are krazy karl for attempting a SL at those odds.

^ I was very, very worried. I think maybe Karl was counting on bombards, but the french cruiser was able to block those…

No worries
I could always split posts to a separate discussion if needed -

Yeah, it was a little crazy…. but it looked fun. If it had paid off, I would have been an A&A hero…

65% was without the bombards… w/the bombards it would have been 75%
The simple fact was the dice went against me hard. AA’s shot way over average, I got only 3 hits R1… disaster right out of the gate :lol:

Zhuk did the same against Juan. I was surprised that the Yunnan stronghold is rather shaky. Japan can sooner or later create unbearable pressure on Yunnan. Of course this is a big plus for the Allies but Axis can overcome this.

And in case you win the SL attack with 1 tank and 1 bomber remaining. Would this have resulted in an auto axis win? No chance the Germans would be crippled even if the win closely?

A Japanese move into Kweichow threatens both Szechwan and Yunnan and the allies can’t defend them both. This means that the Allies hold the Burma Rd for another couple of turns which is real trouble for Japan. Although if you aren’t attacking Yunnan J1, buying 3art C1 is the beginnings of a reasonable offensive Chinese force.
