      I forgot 16 SZ attack so just restarted. It was before any combat.

      Hmm ... Uncle Sam has replaced his Pacific Fleet and threatens once again.
      Will the Indians prove to be up to the task if they decide to mix it up ?

      UK controlling ME is a problem for the bad guys.

      Well, we will see what happens 🙂

        @beelee USA making aggressive moves this turn! Attacking Carolines and Southern Italy. The S. Italy attack a bit complicated so I thought I would let you inspect, roll for your Flak tower, and make scramble instructions. I edit moved a fighter from E. USA to go along with fighter ace, and activated TB to complete the 1st Air Commander.

        Also, did you want to scramble for Carolines?

        Oh - and happy Labor Day! My Longhorns stunk it up at the Horseshoe on Saturday. 😞

          Yea I thought you might do that. I just focused on Guinea and totally spaced the HI dudes lol

          I shoulda evacuated the Planes and blew up the Bases. Oh well 🙂

          S Italy not in much better shape. I'll check what you have so you get max attack. The AFs and Hvy CVs still new, so just in case you missed anything.

          Back in a few

          Oh hope you enjoying a Day off 🙂 That was a boring game. I think Arch is a bit overrated. He was definitly pressing a bit.

          At least the cowboys doing cowboy stuff 🙂

          Edit
          So you need to replace "AirCommander" AirCommander.png with "AirCommanderTac" for 1st USA AF AirCommanderTac.png

          Edit 2
          Also replace the "marineA1" marineA1.png with "marine" marine.png

            @beelee It was entirely the media fault for him being over-rated. Everyone excited about the Manning name but playing on the road against who probably is the #1 defense in the first game of the year where he is starting against a decent opponent. Well, I think they still make it to the Championship. Maybe a blessing in disguise to get humbled right from the get-go.

            The Italy attack may be a mistake but I got to do something to help Uncle Joe out. For the Carolines, same thing. Got to do something instead of sit back and let Japan romp all over the continent.

                yea he's been overhyped from the get go. Still a good player.

                Fwiw I tested both attacks last night and they both succeeded 🙂

                See above in case you missed my edit

                Edit
                Everything else looks good. No scramble

                Edit 2
                Reminder. Don't take the 6th hit on the FlakTower. It'll shoot at the Bmbrs correctly but not the Ftrs. You will have to handroll for those.

                Edit 3
                Actually, you only have 2 Arty. It can boost the Elite and a Armored Mech, so I wouldn't mess with the Marine.

                For the AC, you just have to undo one move, then edit move from the Box the Tac AC. If you add directly it won't work.

                Don't have to redo half your turn that way.

                Edit 4
                Actually you didn't move 2nd Luftloffen, so you'll have to redo your turn anyway. Have to move Defenders into the TTys before any Attackers.

                When you activate 2nd Luft you want the "GAirCommanderFtr" GAirCommanderFtr.png

                and then these guys GfighterAF.png Gtactical_bomberAF.png LuftwaffeAce.png

                I guess technically, you should leave the marine as is or if the Arty boosts something else, he'll attack at 2.

                Idk. Pita I'm not worried either way, but since he's already A1, I wouldn't change him

                    I'd have to make a separate unit for each one the Arty can boost. That's not gonna happen. If triplea is slightly off so be it.

                    If it's a game deciding battle and people want, they can just fight it in edit 🙂

                      @beelee I don't know if I will do this right or not I dice botted 9 fighters and you killed three. I think the flak will shoot at the bombers if I understand correctly what you said. Here goes .....

                        yes Flak will shoot at the Bmbrs. Wow ! I got 3 ? Awesome 🙂

                        It will also not shoot at the B-29

                          @beelee Either Flak had misses on the bombers or I just missed what happened, but in any case your Germans held strong and smashed the Yankees. I lost all but the HB and you lost all ground troops except damaged SS Heavy and your Luftwoffen is intact. In the Pacific, Carolines now belong to USA. That's it for tonight. Will do UK/ANZAC tomorrow. I think I will attack Burma on UK15 and if that goes bad, will possibly concede. But will sleep on it first.

                          Considering how things looked in the Med after Turn 2, you put up a magnificent defense which rebuffed me big time in my two attempts. First time in S. France and next time this turn. But I am taking notes for the next game with you sir ......

                            Oh ?

                            Would you post the USA turn tonight please ?

                            My calcualations have the Allies with the edge but if they suffered a big defeat in Italy, it will slow them down at any rate.

                            You Have the ME and SSR is strong

                            Edit
                            Yes I also anticipate an attack on Yunnan. We will need to do that rd by rd or if I roll bad kill the Bmbrs otherwise keep them.
                            For starters anyway 🙂

                            This is JPNs weakness. Being struck by multiple attacks at once.

                            The Soviets can have that problem as well.

                            Edit 2
                            And the reich 🙂

                              @beelee For the Allied disaster, it was magnificent dice for the Axis. 16 hits first round, then 10 in second round on top of the three AA kills.

                                @beelee Well for Yunnan, I did it in Edit Mode so see attached. I rolled very good first round but you rolled even better. You got 27 hits first round!! So you will most likely win. Anywho, see attached so you can decide what to do as I rolled good second round for 16 hits.

                                  @beelee I don't see that SSR is strong. I see them holding on only because of my good Brit friends down in ME. Nice that USA has Carolines but Japan's income too strong for me to be able to follow that up much. If Yunnan attack had gone well, maybe?? Since that would have kept your ground-based from attacking Yank navy in the event I start venturing towards DEI. I have heard rumor that most Allied wins for Captain are because he knows how to attack Germans with US/UK forces with lethality. I have yet to figure that out but I can see marginal improvements in my approach to it.

                                  Learning alot from you about how to ensure Rome doesn't fall before the Takeover or even afterwards.

                                    Good Evening

                                    Kill the Bmbrs. Keep the Elite to the very end.

                                    I will look at what happened now 🙂 Sounds like some tough dice for Allies so far 🙂

                                      oh ? I hadn't heard that. I should probably go through his game reports again. There are a couple that are very detailed.

                                      Fwiw this was what happened when I did Allies. I didn't do the Yunnan attack. I can't remember why now 🙂

                                      Oh Dude ! You missed 3 Ftrs in S Italy ! Or was that the 3 that got shot down I guess ? It also looks as if I don't have the Flak Tower targeting the AF Bmbrs. I have that on the list to fix.

                                      Yea your 2nd rd was brutal on the 3's. 2 out of 12. Thought you might try and mop up with UK but sinking the surface ships a good kill for you too.

                                      Edit 3
                                      Wow I rolled shitty in Carolines 1st rd. 56 TUV hit lol

                                      Edit 4
                                      I forgot to roll for the Flak in my test lol. Yea, we will want to bring some fodder planes when attacking FlakTwr with an AF.

                                      It can be really brutal on the Bmbrs.

                                        @beelee Yikes! 17 hits for Japanese in the second round. A total wipeout. I concede. But a question for you. Triple A is showing that the Allies have an overwhelming number of TUV (I assume Tactical Unit Value??) in their favor. But that can't be right by just looking at the map. USA got wiped out in the Med, UK got wiped out in India, USA sustained some losses at Carolines. There are only four territories with high Allied value (SZ's 33 & 95, UK, and Belarus) at the moment. I believe there may be something not calculating correctly for TUV or Units. I will ask Agent 007 from the UK to investigate but something doesn't look right.

                                        If I am wrong about this, I am willing to continue the fight. But it sure doesn't pass the eyeball test for me.

                                          @beelee The three F's were the Flak Tower kills. I couldn't figure out how else to do it. Yes, dice were not kind to me this round. I would not have done Yunnan if Italy had gone according to plan. It was too much of a coin flip for my liking, I was content with pulling your stack away from the Soviet border.

                                            @beelee If things had gone according to plan, I was going to have UK go after Northern Italy to shield S. Italy from counterattack which then would have allowed my navy to get back to SZ 91.
