EXP Game 1 barnee vs Crockett

That sub is part of the mighty south fleet that has to go toe to toe with the IJN! I suggest buying more ships=)

Thank you! That was very kind. I still want you to try France Goes first!

Well I had a mini rally so gonna go ahead and roll this out.
There's some complex thing's going on, so I'm gonna screenshot some of it, so you can see how it works.
I'm gonna use Army Group North to attack Vyborg. I have to fight that battle in edit, because we need to use the AG Flag for it's bonus.
Triplea counts it as a HitPoint and the mod doesn't, so we roll in edit and select casualties manually the way we would on the physical board.
Also, I only have the one attack besides a SBR. If I switch to edit at end of CM and do combat, it'll throw a error.
The solution is to make an unintended attack so there will be two attacks happening, the Sub attack in 125 doesn't count either or work for what we want.
So I will send 1 Inf to Belarus and then edit it back and any hits after combat, just so edit will work correctly for us.
Edit
A lot of this will be self explanatory for you but I'm gonna break it down so it can be linked as a teaching tool for others
Here we go
First thing, we will remove the SSR Bases, as the Soviets can kill them at no cost and at any time during battle. They don't have to, if they think they'll take it back on their turn for example but that's obviously not the case here and no need for the Reich to capture them intact.
We are also going to activate 2nd Corps for the SSR in Yenisey but we will wait and do it in CombatMove ( CM )
We will move Commisar3 from the Overflow Box to Yenisey so it can activate the 3 Tanks in 2nd Corps. Only one of the Tanks will get the bonus roll, along with the Commisar per the rules.
We move the Inactive Commisar to 2nd Corps Box as 1st Corps is already active in the Caucasus.
Then we move Army Group North to it's Box and it's units to the board. I like to move all the units to the boards as well as the individual Army/Corps Tokens and then move the Token s to their Boxes and move them to the board.
Then move them all from their originating Territory at once to where they are attacking. Once one becomes more experienced you can skip some of these steps if you'd like. Just need it all to match up at the end of CM
Short break
OK we're all loaded up on Vyborg. I need to do a false attack so I can use edit for the AG Flag mentined above. I will send 1 Inf to Bryank.
OK here we go. I will turn edit on after the fake battle in Bryansk.

So we turn on Edit and then hit "Actions" Top Right
Battle begins
Soviet Gunners were off their mark. No AA Hits. We just select zero.
The Reich hits hard ! An easy 3 above their weight
Select 17 hits. They are all obvious so no need to ask our opponent.
Oh tough duty for Uncle Joe probably a easy 3 below average
Army Group North is now inactive due to battle losses, so we take the 5 hits on Infantry and then the AG Flag as well for an additional hit.
This is why we play it in edit, as even 1 or 2 units can make a big impact in large battles.
Pretty much an average roll for Jerry here but it will be enough to send Ivan to his grave, if he gets one
Uggh even his dying grasp is a below average hit total and the Vyborg Army will suffer a Major defeat.
A Brutal 73 PU swing for Ivan.

but that's how it works.Turn was pretty sloppy as I couldn't remember all what i did lol Had to keep undoing stuff.
Tough battle in Vyborg -4 plus on the dice and I don't think that counts what potential survivors woulda done or more accurately less nazi hits because they'd be dead.
Anyway Uncle Joe up
