Since there were no more reinforcements left, I went through those phases. Since there was only 1 blockhouse left I did the naval bombardment as well.

Germany Turn 8 Reinforcements Complete D-Day Game 29.tsvg
While I’m not conceding yet (I would like to keep playing), I feel like the tide has turned against the Germans. What did I do wrong this time? Did I send too many units to be hit by fighters? Or was it the dice? Thank you!
-
Yeah - I’ll have to crunch the numbers. Not sure and good question. I’ll take a look once this wraps up.
-
Something’s weird. If you look at the game history turn 8 is incomplete. The Germans didn’t engage in combat, nor did any of my movements take place (I double checked the file, the combat and moves did happen and are saved).
The German tanks should be in G35.
Does this file work?
-
@SuperbattleshipYamato this file works but its a turn behind. I’m a bit confused. was there something wrong with the A9 file I uploaded? Are you not able to save your G9?
-
Your A9 file shows the tanks in G34, not G35.
This is how the map is supposed to look at the beginning of turn 9:
-
I took A9 and this is how the A9 file looks when I open it on two different computers:
-
Same here. The issue are the differences at the bottom.
I didn’t move anything in Cherbourg area, so that should be correct.
This is my (and I assume your) file looks:
-
The tanks couldn’t have moved from G35 to G34. Looking in the history of A9, they never were moved:
-
I’m really confused. Everything looks fine to me. Specifically, I don’t know what you mean by tanks that couldn’t have moved from G35 to G34 (the tanks -plural- is also confusing as there is only one UK tank in G35 - do you mean the German tanks in G34 that never moved?). No allied tanks ever moved from G35 to G34. I will post a series of photos. Here is the A8 Combat move:
Here is the A8 Combat before rolling:
Here is the start of A9 - can you pick a photo and maybe draw on it to show me what the problem is?
-
and here is the current situation
-
I meant German tanks, sorry.
And that’s the problem. The German tanks did move.
My pictures above should show that.
-
So did the “Turn 8 Reinforcements Complete” file.
-
@SuperbattleshipYamato Ah! got it now.
Best I can come up with is this: I slowly went through everything and I believe the error is on my side - I’m pretty sure at least. I may have opened the wrong file or had the screen from my previous allied turn open and then clicked past the German turn you had taken? One thing that has also been difficult for me is that the first 13 characters of your save files are always identical (so the 10 characters I can see after downloading the file are indistinguishable from other turns unless I click in the file header). The way I store things makes it difficult to discern one file from another.
I’m going to pick this up from G8 and just refire the entire Turn 9. There will be no need to send the file back to you so I will execute the G9 as well and then the A10 and see where were at.

-
okay, now I will go through this round by round and uncover what happened bc I am a bit surprised by this result. Let’s see where things went upside down for Germany…
-
Glad we figured it out. I’m sorry if my file naming system contributed to the confusion in some way.
-
Dang, everyone (German) died? At least they killed quite a bunch of Allied units that last turn (10, I think).
-
End of round 1, game aggregate dice results:
Allies: -11.53 actual, -13.66 low luck, +2 reinforcements
Axis: +1.06 actual, +0 low luck, +2 reinforcements
