I was planning on doing a J3 DOW but Europe changed so I thought I’d better go now.

In SZ41, two tacs are on one CV, two fighters on the other.

I assumed no scramble from Guam.

@JDOW said in 666 (Allies+9) vs Simon33 (Axis) BM3:

That was a bloody J2. Boy, you stretched the Japanese forces to the max.

Possibly, I’ll lose a CV and 2 planes in SZ42. I should take a few forces with me though.

@666 said in 666 (Allies+9) vs Simon33 (Axis) BM3:

@simon33, hmm combat first has another problem, it won’t let me attack all those sweet German trannies with my two Brit fighters?

Use edit mode|Perform move and other actions - that’s in the notes.

Oh f***. I was wondering if I was missing something.

You can assume a scramble to SZ113.

@666 said in 666 (Allies+9) vs Simon33 (Axis) BM3:

@simon33 never going to play combat first again. I don’t see any advantages in game play and i hate some of the new triplea mechanics…

Hmm, I’m sorry you feel that way. I understand that there are a few moves that you know 100% your buy and your attacks and it isn’t necessarily ideal on those turns but there are other turns where you aren’t sure if you can or should attack and these can affect the buy. I’d rather there be a mega buy/combat move phase which is what I’ve played IRL but that isn’t practicable now.

Back to this game, it seems like it might be lost but I’m going to look at it again after G3.
