EXP G40 Game 11 Barnee vs. Trout
-
@beelee Good morning- yes probably need dice to go nuts with the Flak and LMs to give the Home Guard a chance. No problem with the Escort edit, it’s an obvious thing to do. For the Air Commander, last turn I swapped out a 262 for a fighter but in laziness I only switched out the AC in the box. That is why there are only 3 262’s in W Germany instead of the four from my TW purchase a few turns ago. Red nose for the LCVs is a good improvement. My biggest issue is self-inflicted by not having a 300” monitor like our German friend has. Triple A can’t fix that. Will do the SL attack later today. Taking Pizza to his practice soon
-
right arm. I checked history and think we should be good. It won't matter either way.
What's his events ?
Pizza you need to join the club brother ! Alex in Unniversity. we're not all old ....s
Edit
ahh ... OK so one less Ftr and one more 262 then ? -
@beelee Correct. So the Luftflotten has a 262, Tac, and Fighter in it. So I think that would attack with five 4's and one 3. On defense, four 5's, one 4, and one 3?? Doesn't matter most likely for outcome of the battle, but I have never had an Air Commander Squad with a 262 thus the question. I reviewed the Flak Tower thread and Captain said Heavy Bombers are immune to Flak.
So I had 8 fighters/4 Tacs/3 262s in West Germany plus the Luftflotten which has one of each in it. So from looking at how you set up the F15 file where 3 262s are in the Luftflotten, I will keep that. So that means I will have 9 fighters/5 Tacs/1 262 in W. Germany and not in the Luftflotten. Will make that adjustment and roll. My memory is that Triple A will roll for the fighters and for the Tac B's/regular Strat B's I will need to do Dice Bot.
Actually I will do Dice Bot now for the 5 Tacs & 3 regular Strat B's and then just wait until you respond as to what I do next. Just to make completely sure I did it right since this is the game-deciding battle.
Okay, I rolled on Dice Bot and there's 3 Hits so 3 Stukas crash into the English Channel. 2 Tac B's and 3 Strat B's will participate in the attack. So should I just Edit out three Tacs before I make the attack??? How exactly do I handle that?
-
Good Afternoon and Happy Friday
Yea, so you need to roll for the Ftrs. The Flak will shoot at the Bmbrs correctly and will not target the Stealth Bmbrs.
So as long as you have one other battle going and the Escrt in 110 should create one, turn on edit at start of combat. Roll for the Ftrs and any LMs, just assume the 110 Victory obviously. Unless there's a dinosaur strike, you will win
Then remove the appropriate units, turn edit off and fight the battle normally.
Yes, I believe your numbers are correct for the 262's in the Luftflotten.
Remember, 262's are considered Ftrs
Edit
Hmm ... I wonder if a special Flak unit that shoots at the Ftrs only and then kills itself would work ? Make it 1 pixel big so it's basically invisible.I will look into it.
I don't usually have good ideas when my day just is getting started lol -
@beelee Okay. So dice bot for the fighters and Flak will shoot at the bombers? Do I have that right? If there is a Flak Tower present, do the AAA just not shoot?
-
yea I switched the AA to HPs only. They have red barrels
yes to the above
Edit
Hmm ... you gave me another idea. Maybe I can make the FlakTower give a negative bonus to the AA so it can't hit planes ?Seems it might be possible. It's on the list.
Don't have to dick around switching the aaGuns then.
Actually probably can't. You're either AA or not in triplea, as in I can't adjust "isAA" I don't think. I'll try it and maybe wc knows a way to do it
-
@beelee I screwed up with forgetting to swap out the fighter for the 262 so that fighter will just join the SZ 110 battle so he doesn't impact the main attraction. So for the record, scramble instructions for SZ 110?

-
heh heh yea no scramble
I'll run the white flag up after you winI guess I could check but surely you can win 110
Edit
Probably just as good of odds as the regular battle I understand why you asked. Didn't mean to sound like a DHNo scramble
-
@beelee Rolled 3 hits for the Flak Fighters on Dice Bot.

Hitler can tour Buckingham Palace now

Congratulations and well played !
You controlled the game from start to finish. I will update the spreadsheet. Would you like to do a game report ? I can add some pictures at the end.
If too busy I understand. I need to catch up on a few. I want to document the first multi with Alex. I know they're not as fun as playing but think it's good to keep a record anyway, even though the save games record it all.
I think it's 4-6 or 7 ? now. I will regroup and finish the update and some reports and challenge you once more
Congratulations once again.
Edit
Spreadsheet updatedEdit 2
You've won 6 of your last 8 All of your wins against me have been Sea Lion lol we are 4-7 or 7-4 depending on how you look at it -
@beelee Thanks! Yes I can do the game report if you can do the pictures. Not being able to do the pictures is the only reason why I have not done them in the past. Yes I believe I have only defeated you via Sea Lion. Maybe some day that could change
-
Yea i was just gonna say this was a Late Sea Lion win which is completely different than a early one. Machine froze lol
Yea i will add a few shots at the end of your report the way the captain does them. no need to be to extensive the way I do them lol
Edit
I believe you would have won regardless. Probably just by grinding me down. You were well on your way to Economic Victory but a Military one is much more satisfyingEdit 2
You're right behind @Panzerstahl-Helm-0 now You guys might need to mix it up soon 
-
@beelee Full disclosure- I saw where I could probably do Sea Lion after I did the 262 TW purchase because of healthy economy, large Luftwaffe, and not too much reinforcement of London. But I really wanted to get an Economic Victory. But you are such a good Soviet player that I can never make a lot of progress with Barbarossa. Then you stalemated me in Syria. So then I thought I could keep up a stalemate and let J win the game for me. But my Med Navy was in danger of getting whacked by your air power and then when you moved your Brit tanks over from Egypt … That was when I called the audible because we were headed for a big battle in ME that I was going to lose. So you forced me to bomb the Queen … again
-
Heh heh, I thought I left Egypt a little weak and it would fall. That's why I had to keep taking Alexandria with more Units Than I preferred. Otherwise it'd open up a landing spot for European Air.
But yea, the Kill shot on London was obviously the way to go
Hopefully I've finally learned my lesson
