PTV OwenToo vs max334 (Axis)
-
Are you still in this game? Just wondering if you lost excitement for it?
-
@max334 Never fear! I have only begun to fight!
Actually it will be a very good learning experience in PTV to see if the Russian Bear can deal Germany a death blow in retribution for SeaLion. I feel I am very much in this game. Fight on!
-
@owentoo ok we will press on. I wasn’t actually worried about the European theater I just saw that your Pacific fleet is exposed without any blockers. Haven’t looked at it carefully, but it’s in danger of annihilation
-
@max334 It all depends on the dice… are you feeling lucky today?
-
@owentoo lol… Your kind of funny, but i think your game involves a little more than just luck of the dice
-
@max334 Well, my exposed fleet, if attacked, could be a disaster for the Americans, or it could be a disaster for the Japanese, depending on the first round dice. SZ 55 is friendly to the Allies, so I will have a place to land surviving aircraft, and you will not.
-
@max334 If you decide to attack the fleet, save the game after your first round, so I can pick the hits and name my OOL
-
@owentoo I guess that’s the nice thing about being the attacker If the first round doesn’t go well you can always retreat.
-
@max334 That is very true, but if your dice go badly and the defender’s dice go well, you can’t retreat far enough to escape the inevitable counterattack.
-
@owentoo nah that never happens to me The dice love me
-
@max334 :face_with_head_bandage:
-
@owentoo I had a little difficulty with the set up. For some reason the AI wouldn’t let me land my sz35 planes. Shouldn’t they still have 2 moves left if they survive? 12 Jan 21.tsvg
-
@max334 The problem is you have 8 aircraft attacking and only 3 CVs within range to land them. So that is illegal.
-
You have already brought in 2 aircraft from elsewhere that must land on that CV in 35, therefore the planes from 35 must go somewhere else and not participate in the battle in 55
-
@owentoo I have the carrier in Japan that can reach Caroline islands and pick up two planes that have two movements left
-
yes, but the CV in 35 must come closer to the battle or participate in the battle to receive the aircraft with 1 or 0 movement left. It should be able to do that in NCM. What is the program not allowing you to do?
-
I loaded the game, and it seems to work. Just click “Done” on the combat move. Scramble the 2 fighters in Queensland, and let 'er rip. OOL is damage all capital ships, then sub, CVs DDs, CAs, BB
-
o yeh, take tac and Fighters after the CAs, before the BB
-
@owentoo just to be clear the ftr and tac from sz35 can land on the sz7 carrier and the sz35 carrier can pick up any other surviving planes?
-
@max334 Yes, it appears to be that way to me, as long as the SZ35 carrier can move during NCM
