18L JDOW Axis vs majikforce BM3

Ouch. First losing 3 units in sf with italy, now that flawless french attack. I had solid defense during your us/chi/anz but this was another setback for the axis.

At least the french fig is dead meat now.

Boy, I can’t recall a game where those French have been more a pain in the ass than this one. 8 units lost to those stupid blue sucker :(
This doesn’t feel well in Europe so far.

I will of course reroll the sea battle then.

@JDOW:

Sir, I need to beg your merci. I accidently took one ship into the sea battle in sz37, that was a missclick.

I will of course reroll the sea battle then.
I intended to not bring the cruiser in.

the sea battle is then:

[…]

So in the end I edited one cruiser from 37 to 36. Please let me know if this is ok for you. I can definitely tell you that this was not influenced by any dice in this turn as blocking both seazones, 37 and 36 was obviously crucial for this turn, regardless what the dice say.

Best,
Tobias

oh boy, I should not make complicated moves immediately after getting up.

The desired attack in sz37 was sub, DD, BB instead of 2DD, BB.

So the attack power would have been the same and I would like to swap sub and DD in 37 and 36 = DD to 36, sub to 37.

However, I do not the edit now and completely leave it up to you how to continue.

1. Forcing the cruiser into 37
2. Take the map as posted
3. Take posted map and swap DD and sub in 37 and 36.

Sorry again for the mess. I admit, I usually do not go for an India rush that’s why I couldn’t just copy a move I have made before in other games.

In case you decide for option 1, I might want to readjust my NCM, so please do not continue in that case.
In case of 2 or 3, you can of course go ahead.

Best,
Tobias

Bringing to the bottom

@JDOW:

oh boy, I should not make complicated moves immediately after getting up.

The desired attack in sz37 was sub, DD, BB instead of 2DD, BB.

So the attack power would have been the same and I would like to swap sub and DD in 37 and 36 = DD to 36, sub to 37.

However, I do not the edit now and completely leave it up to you how to continue.

1. Forcing the cruiser into 37
2. Take the map as posted
3. Take posted map and swap DD and sub in 37 and 36.

In case you decide for option 1, I might want to readjust my NCM, so please do not continue in that case and proceed in case you decide for 2 or 3.

Sorry again for the mess. I admit, I usually do not go for an India rush that’s why I couldn’t just copy a move I have made before in other games.

Ok Sir, scratch all that.

This map is in line with the original map with one exception.
You need to allow my to not add the Carrier into the attack at sz37. That was an entirely brain dead missclick. The carrier made no sense there as I it was entirely unrealistically that the DD would score 2 hits and even in that case I would not have tipped the carrier.

Sorry again for that huge mess.

Still, this is worse than I planned because I would have definitely preferred to have the AB at Kwangsi.
But still, otherwise the fleet in sz36 would have been in a shaky position because I would have let to crash the planes in case you attack and take Shan state. And you would have had a good hit and run then.

So as said, everything original now except the fact that you would need to allow me to not make the braindead missclick and take thus allow me to leave the carrier out of the sea battle in sz37.

@majikforce:

Okay, I finally have had some time to digest what went on with Japan.  I have been super busy with work,house repairs and family stuff.  At first I was against the second carrier in sz 38 since according to the history you tried to land planes on the one in sz 37.  But after thinking more about it I feel I should give you the benefit of the doubt.  You are a really good player and I feel you have a high level of integrity. I think you were a little out of sorts using a move you don’t do that often.  Japan can be difficult with all the possible logistics.  So I will play the turn as is.  I am actually intrigued to see how this plays out.  I must admit I have never seen someone blast Burma like that.  I usually go after whatever China has left with the all air attack.  I guess playing higher level opponents has payed off already with some lessons learned! :-D  Hopefully I can give you some resistance with India being lost so early.  One question would you have still made the attack if I had put all my air force there?

Thanks a lot for allowing the edit, much appreciated. I’d like to add: Of course my initial plan was to land air in sz37. However, therefore there was no reason to put the carrier into sz37 during combat move phase. I had the BB to buffer a hit an even in case your DD would have miraculously scored 2 hits, i would not have damage the carrier but take a DD off. So there was no point to bringt the carrier during combat move phase as it did not increase the attack power.

Regarding your question: I guess I would have attacked with the 3 UK planes at Burma. In case you would not have send inf/art to Africa but to Burma I would probably not have attacked.
in case you would have used your TT to bring the inf from Malaya to Burma I would have certainly not attacked.

Good move btw to bombard the Harbour in SF. I admit, I missed that. Similar to Asia, this was also a move I almost never made before:D
Nothing is going well for me in Europe so far :-(
