          Thanks for all that. Hey I think these Landing Craft are the BEST! They open up so many doors to new strategies !!! And I still think Naval Mines rock and I cannot wait to buy and plant fifty of the little suckers all over the place !

          PS. I have a BIG SURPRISE for Turn 5 which I think you will love 🙂

              Russia declared war right? If so my fleet is attacking your two floating objects in the Baltic Sea

              In which case you can send out planes I guess. But why would you ? But go ahead and send your Shturmoviks to the bottom of the sea heehee

                      That's the least of your worries mate. Unless there is some intervention I don't know of, you are about to lose your three US carries. And I don't even have to make any magical carriers to collect my fighters tho I might still do that. heehee

                        @Trout Speaking of which, how did you pull that off last game? Because I have carriers that can reach I don't have to worry about it maybe but I may want to send out more fighters and buy some new carriers anyway so in cases like that is the game smart enough to read my production and allow for the new carrier?

                        I'd have to check our old game to see but I recall thinking that you could not reach my transports for that sneaky Sea Lion Operation I was going to do, but then you were able to send your fighters out during combat phase and somehow land them on carriers that were not there until placement???

                        I really need to understand how you did that since I seem to be able to do pretty much the same thing here.

                        Thanks

                          @trout Wow so this is Russia's big growth phase.

                          What is the difference between regular ing and those conscripts? And why. does the game show 17 regular inf in Russia but the notes say 17 conscripts?

                          I guess I need to know how that tank army works too - the one in Poland.. Can we not use the little tags and top boxes? Or at last can I change that into real pieces for this turn?

                          I never understood that top box thing anyway. This is not an actual boardgame so it's not like we'd run out of space or the cat will knock over the pieces, lol. What am I missing?

                          Cheers

                            @johnnycat Best to let you figure out any tricks. After all, you have already shown you know a few yourself 🙂 But for conscripts, they are the same as infantry for all intents and purposes after they are deployed. Also you had a question about panzer grenadiers, you can build 4 Hitler fanatics for those and they pack a bigger punch on offense and defense than the regulars. But for all Waffen, you have to build a regular and then upgrade them the next turn. But they have to be in Berlin when they get upgraded so that Fuehrer can brainwash them before they go into combat

                              @trout ok well I just have an important procedural question: does the TripleA engine properly roll the dice for all these special armies and other units or do we need to do something special ?

                                @johnnycat Yes - only things needed special are the Panzer and SS Armies. Along with the paratroopers that need to attack with a para boost. But they only attack and defend with a para boost if they are doing so alone. Read the rules for paratroopers if you want to understand why that is

                                  @trout I’m trying to get through japans turn but stumped at some rules-issues

                                  I think I need to wipe out your Carriers so how does that work
                                  In terms of order of loss?

                                  In the rules are a section about carriers being primary targets but all that is about when they are grouped with a BB

                                  In this case they are all alone so how is this handled ?

                                  Ideally your carriers would take hits first and they are two hit right ?

                                    @johnnycat OOL depends on how many planes you are attacking with. Am at zoo with sweetie pie and two of my kids now but can respond if you tell me what you are attacking with

                                      @johnnycat No battleships so the rule about carriers first doesn't apply. Here's the Order of Loss (OOL) for me.

                                      1. Carrier (two hits)
                                      2. Tac B then one fighter
                                      3. Next carrier
                                      4. Two more fighters
                                      5. Carrier (one hit)
                                      6. Two more fighters
                                      7. Last carrier

                                      Reason for this is that I don't think you will kill them all on the 1st round. So I am avoiding a situation where I lose all my carriers and no planes because in that situation, you could retreat after the 1st round and then any remaining airplanes would just crash into the ocean since no carriers to land on. If this doesn't make sense to you, then you can do the combat in Edit Mode but you may not know how to do that.

                                        @trout I totally get it. And that was my point. I wanted to find some way to easy kill them.

                                        That’s the fascinating thing about this game; whether they make sense or not we need to know the rules. I’m still laughing at the UK magic carrier production so “go get em boys the pilots were told…”.

                                        In fact, and I’m sure you’re aware of this, there are all sorts of ways to basically use kamakasi air planes by just knowing the rules

                                        And I recall something about transports gets taken last but I’m assuming that the player can override all that with their own order of loss.

                                        With each time I Play this game I can see how to better run the japs and even Anzac. Italy is still a riddle tho.

                                          @johnnycat You will get better each game and even each turn. I can see that already in playing you. No - transports always get taken last. You'll need to enforce that yourself as Triple A won't do it automatically. That's not an issue here as I have no transports in the SZ with my carriers

                                            @trout wait What?!???

                                            Transports are taken last ALWAYS?

                                            That has huge strategy implications. So a BB and a transport get hit by 2 fighters the second hit MUST BE the transport?.
