A Gibraltar attack would have been a surprise, and did not think about it.

@leemorrison So you are missing Jets and HBombs.
Suggest you roll one dice Even for Jets. Odd gets you Hbomb and probably the game.
Come on Ruskie AA gunners

@VictoryFirst said in L25 Classic VictoryFirst (Axis) vs. leemorrison (Allies):
Hi Lee, posting the start of my Japanese turn here. I spend all my money on tech and was lucky enough to get 5 hits, however 4 techs are activated, I wonder why that is.
@The_Good_Captain I thought when rolling for which tech you get, if you roll the same number you get to roll again? So should I be getting 5 techs here or is the 4 correct?
That’s correct. Roll it off here on the forum is my suggestion. And whoa! That’s crazy! But that’s what its there for… the big “Hail Mary”.
-
Thanks! That means I will get one more chance to turn the tables.
Even = Jet Power, Odd = Heavy Bombers
[dice 1d6]
-
1d6: 2
-
You are in luck, I got all the techs except for the one I needed. Lol.
-
@VictoryFirst without looking at the game - if you can limp to the next turn and roll again - your odds of securing the HB just went WAY up.
-
to everyone: this is also why its good to keep a bomber on the board when you roll for tech. its far more lethal when you have a bomber that is instantaneously able to throw three dice on the turn of breakthrough.
-
You are right, however HB this turn would be particularly lethal because then I’d have 80% chance of capturing Moscow. Next turn that might not be the case because Lee will be prepared for it.
I bought 6 bombers before rolling for tech so that in case I get HB I perhaps could catch Lee of guard. Now the surprise factor is gone. Berlin will probably fall this turn.

@leemorrison Use the second one, made a couple of edits.
-
I’m stupid btw, I shouldn’t have bombed/attacked you but rather stacked up Germany with the Japanese airforce, then Germany would live for another day as well as my air force. Now the game is I think lost.
-
Actually I will change my mind. You can use the first one. It’s better if I take the 10% that Berlin holds than the 0.1% that I take Moscow.
-
One more question, can an AA gun move and fire a rocket the same turn?
-
@VictoryFirst I think so
-
@leemorrison Just to confirm, all the Jpn Air is in Germany on the map to use
-
That’s correct. If you take Berlin this turn I will surrender.
-
@VictoryFirst OOL needed. only 13 hits. US may be butchered.
-
@leemorrison max defense, so you can take the Japanese bombers first.
