L21 AndrewAAGamer (X) vs Pejon_88 (L+60) OOB

    Thank you both!

    From what I remember and when looking at the map again turn 12 when I moved to Sumatra, it seems it was due to your German can-openers. Had I not moved there I think I could have lost India a turn or two earlier. From what I can see, SZ55 was not an option as you would have had 95% odds attacking my fleet. I couldn’t land additional planes in India from the current position in SZ54, so what was your suggestion?

    Not sure what you mean here. The Japanese attack on SZ55 was less than the attack on Sumatra. Sumatra was an 85% battle which I choose not to do since I could go to Java and block you from Sydney. SZ55 wasa mere 5%. From SZ55 you could have flown planes to Burma/India and then retreated back to Queensland.


  • @andrewaagamer Not at my PC right now, but couldn’t you attack with 26 air craft due to landing spots on ACs from Tokyo. Need to verify this claim though.

    Nope. I only had 22 planes that could hit SZ55 (Northern Territory). My bombers couldn’t even make it.

    In fact, I thought long and hard about hitting your fleet at 85%. However, at that point in the game Germany was doing substantially better so I did not want to risk it all on an 85% battle. Plus, I figured by moving to Java and cutting you off and threatening Sydney you would have to give up India or Sydney, which turned out to be correct, and I felt that would get me back in the game so why risk it.


  • @andrewaagamer Looks like we both were correct and incorrect. You could reach with 26 air, 4 landing on ACs from Tokyo. I could, however, have landed 22 figs on my ACs to make my fleet stronger than yours, so an attack would have been impossible. Must have somehow overlooked that otherwise it would have been the best move of course.
