@beelee On another topic, looks like ANZAC really wants to take Java!

heh heh stupid CA
Oh yea there's been an update to the A-Bomb or a clarification.
I asked if levels 1-5 are removed after the Bomb goes into production or if they stay on the board for the rest of the game. Haven't heard back yet.
Anyway, we'll just have to handroll and edit. I'll do another update once I hear from him and we can use it for Game 2 and going forward.

@beelee Okay, got it. That seems to be way too complicated to automate in Triple A. Believe hand rolling and edit will be the way to go for it. Yes, good idea to defer to Game 2, etc. as that changes the whole production planning for Germany starting around Turn 4 or 5.
I think this is another one of those House Rules for game play purposes. Believe that during the war, there was very little intelligence about how the other side was progressing with regards to A-Bomb research or where it was taking place - let alone how/where to bomb it. Even V1/V2 intel was not very good but the Allies did have some levels of intel for that.
-
Yea what I'll do for triplea is have each level be able to be bombed 10 more each time, so it'll still just have the one token. Right now you can't bomb them. Sadly there's no way to turn of the AA for Infrastructure so it'll be same as a Hvy Bmbr getting shot down.
Also, the Attacker has to declare what it's bombing, so if he sends two Bmbrs at 2 different levels, then the Interceptors can be vectored to each one. Triplea just rolls them all at once. I'll make a request for Victory. I have a couple others but I just like to do one at a time with him.
Actually it should benefit the Allies the most. It will require the Luftwaffe to defend Berlin. Hvys can reach from London. Highly unlikely Washington gets bombed at all.
Edit
Here's another clarification/update
So basically Gotta keep some Ftrs in Berlin, which is Historical and nobody is gonna get bombed
On second thought, Allies can get Escorts from Norway or 112, so it's not completely unfeasible. Haven't seen it in a long time but the Allies used to focus there quite a bit.
Have to neuter Italy first or they get too big it seems. Idk. We need more Players
Oh yea, I forgot to blitz in and back to Libya, hence the edit.
Edit
Reading it again, so levels 1-4 can be bombed anytime they're on the board. Once level 5 is achieved, they can't be bombed anymore. You just need to repair any damage done to them before you can start producing A-Bombs.So you can still buy a new level even if your previous one is damaged ? Hmm ... I guess I better ask that too lol
-
@beelee Agree thatβs the net effect. Will be interesting to find out how the Danish Mafia addresses A-Bomb. Cap keeps insisting the game is determined after 10 or less turns. If so, then when our champion plays them, he should not see any A-Bomb research being conducted
-
@beelee No fighter escorts can reach so theoretically 3-4 Luftwaffe should be enough cover but thatβs still money that could have gone elsewhere
-
Wow I'm not getting notifications from you when you post. Anyway, I edited a couple above ones.
-
Yea but I like the fact that Berlin needs to be defended. It's Historical and slows the Reich a bit, although they need an AB there to launch the A-Bomb anyway.
London gonna take a beating lol
Edit
So with an AB you can still hit NORM and shuck the W GER ones to BerlinEdit 2
Yea no point in going to London. The Reich will just Bomb it and UK can't fix it before the Yanks go. Have to be NORM or S Italy most likely.Idk looks as if it's gonna be a lot easier for the Reich to bomb London and Moscow than for Uncle Sam to hit Tokyo and Berlin.
-
@beelee I think it would be good to start talking about this a bit now so that I fully understand when the bombs start dropping. For the London example, I believe how it would play out is:
-
If I attack the Industrial Area, the only thing that happens is 20 damage points to the factory (assuming Underground), lose heavy industry upgrade (so costs 3 to restore that), 6 damage points for naval base, 6 damage points to airbase. So UK could stay upright if they just spend $20 for repairs each turn. Attacking the front line would require a Sea Lion so assume that can be defended without too much trouble.
-
Same for Moscow except a $20 hit is alot for them.
-
So I think it's not an instant death, just a devastating punch. Do I have that right??
But you are correct that USA would need to attack Berlin from a US territory since G could bomb a UK territory such as London and then the airbase could not be repaired until after the USA turn is finished.
Am I missing anything here??
-
-
OK I think I got the final word on it
I'll have to check on the Damage. I can't remember.
Yep I think you got it. Just have to remember can only move 4 and any other Planes using that AB don't get the Bonus.
So Tokyo and London can both be hit RD 12 and Berlin Moscow Rd 13. Germany only has 2 Bmbrs but the Americans logistic train is longer so I can see why he did it the way he did but I still think it'll be easier for the Reich.
Maybe that's why he made the Research levels bombable to balance it out a bit because Yanks ain't getting bombed
