Turn 16. Mar/Apr 1942. Allied #7.
2/19/21, 12:43 PM - [Allied]: Still dealing with neck so no gaming today.
2/19/21, 1:26 PM - [Axis]: sorry about. Hope u feel better soon
2/19/21, 4:04 PM - [Allied]: I am feeling better but still like won't get to my turn until tomorrow.
2/19/21, 4:04 PM - [Allied]: Though, I'm looking now at my situation.
2/19/21, 4:05 PM - [Allied]: Talks about not paying attention to the map. I completely blew off looking at the Pacific and paid the price for such a boneheaded oversight!
2/19/21, 4:05 PM - [Allied]: I am very fortunately the the Big E survived.
2/19/21, 4:05 PM - [Allied]: In this case luck favored the dumb.
2/19/21, 4:06 PM - [Axis]: Glad you are feeling a bit better
2/19/21, 4:06 PM - [Axis]: You must have really tweaked a muscle badly
2/19/21, 4:06 PM - [Allied]: It moved from my left to the right.
2/19/21, 4:07 PM - [Axis]: Well, I don't think it would have changed anything. Had you moved the Carriers out I would not have declared war
2/19/21, 4:07 PM - [Allied]: Only thing I can figure is at night my neck muscles are spasming causing me to not be able to find any comfortable position which doesn't allow me to sleep well.
2/19/21, 4:07 PM - [Allied]: This morning I got up and took a muscle relaxator.
2/19/21, 4:08 PM - [Axis]: You may have to go to the Doctor bud
2/19/21, 4:08 PM - [Allied]: I was finally able around 9 am to get sleep and I sleep through to 1 pm.
2/19/21, 4:08 PM - [Allied]: Woke up feeling much better and managed to get my 3.5-mi run in.
2/19/21, 4:09 PM - [Allied]: I hadn't missed a workout day in years until this week. I've missed 2 days!
2/19/21, 4:09 PM - [Allied]: It was almost 3.
2/19/21, 4:09 PM - [Axis]: Wow
2/19/21, 4:09 PM - [Axis]: That's discipline. Wish I had that dedication to exercising
2/19/21, 4:10 PM - [Axis]: But like I said, I don't think you would have changed your USA move
2/19/21, 4:10 PM - [Allied]: It's funny what will sideline you. Never thought it would be a neck pull/strain.
2/19/21, 4:10 PM - [Allied]: If I had checked the pacific map I would have "evacuated" the 2 USN CVs at Pearl.
2/19/21, 4:11 PM - [Allied]: Kind of like what happened historically.
2/19/21, 4:11 PM - [Axis]: The problem Japan had was Summer was approaching. It's bad weather in Honolulu then, and that's when the USA would be rolling to enter the war.
2/19/21, 4:12 PM - [Axis]: In that case I would have waited. We would then be playing a game of cat and mouse.
2/19/21, 4:12 PM - [Allied]: But I was so focuses on Europe and pulling off the landing in Dippie (oh I mean Calais) that I got careless.
2/19/21, 4:12 PM - [Allied]: In way it actually worked out for me.
2/19/21, 4:12 PM - [Axis]: It worked out for you. USA got in the war without a brutal blow
2/19/21, 4:12 PM - [Allied]: I should have lost 1 CV and probably seen the 2nd damaged.
2/19/21, 4:13 PM - [Allied]: In the end the cost was a damaged CV. But why did it have to be the Big E!
2/19/21, 4:13 PM - [Axis]: Your AA came thru for you
2/19/21, 4:13 PM - [Axis]: I was torn about spending points to go to lowest of 5
2/19/21, 4:14 PM - [Allied]: Honestly, most of this week from Tuesday until just now has been pretty much a blur.
2/19/21, 4:14 PM - [Axis]: I couldn't quite get to the magic 3 X, which guarantees a carrier loss
2/19/21, 4:14 PM - [Allied]: Or more like a dream if that makes sense.
2/19/21, 4:14 PM - [Axis]: Yea. When you're sleep schedule gets blown up, you start feeling weird
2/19/21, 4:15 PM - [Allied]: I guess my body was telling me I needed rest in order to heal my neck.
2/19/21, 4:16 PM - [Allied]: And very impressive push into Egypt.
2/19/21, 4:16 PM - [Allied]: I thought I had you stalemated but kept losing naval battle in the East Med.
2/19/21, 4:16 PM - [Allied]: And air battles too.
2/19/21, 4:16 PM - [Allied]: RAF has really let me down there.
2/19/21, 4:17 PM - [Axis]: I felt like once I got both artillery in position, I would get a lucky strike on one of the stacks, and I did
2/19/21, 4:17 PM - [Allied]: I knew it was coming but couldn't do anything to counter it.
2/19/21, 4:18 PM - [Allied]: I was also worried about the CCP and Lanchow.
2/19/21, 4:18 PM - [Axis]: Right. Very difficult for Commonwealth right now. War at sea and Egypt raging
2/19/21, 4:19 PM - [Allied]: Only now can I get a ZOC in my next impulse that will keep the IJA 12th inf army from flanking the CCP and capturing Lanchow.
2/19/21, 4:20 PM - [Axis]: Yea, storms helped you. I thought I was going to be able to take it
2/19/21, 4:20 PM - [Allied]: If either of the 2 impulses so far had been fine or snow, then you would have Lanchow.
2/19/21, 4:20 PM - [Axis]: Yep
2/19/21, 4:21 PM - [Allied]: Though several turns ago I though China was a goner.
2/19/21, 4:21 PM - [Allied]: They still might be but hopefully with the US in the war, Japan will have to divert some away from China.
2/20/21, 11:51 AM - [Allied]: <Media omitted>
2/20/21, 11:51 AM - [Allied]: Pouring over the turn and just got a look at US entry.
2/20/21, 11:52 AM - [Allied]: Wow, Germany/Italy entry ballooned.
2/20/21, 11:53 AM - [Axis]: Yea. I assume you agree with the decision I made for you regarding not moving tension.
2/20/21, 11:53 AM - [Allied]: Yes, I do.
2/20/21, 11:54 AM - [Allied]: Rules question.
2/20/21, 11:55 AM - [Allied]: Can CW units invade off of US lift against a hex controlled by a major power that's not at war with the US?
2/20/21, 11:55 AM - [Allied]: But, of course, at war with the CW.
2/20/21, 11:55 AM - [Axis]: US lift?
2/20/21, 11:56 AM - [Allied]: CW off of US amph or CW div off of USN CA.
2/20/21, 11:57 AM - [Axis]: I would say they can. But I've never tried it and not 100% positive rules don't prohibit it
2/20/21, 11:57 AM - [Allied]: Another multiple states of war thing I'm going to try which I think should work.
2/20/21, 11:57 AM - [Allied]: US CP in the Med should provide supply to CW units.
2/20/21, 12:03 PM - [Axis]: yes they will
2/20/21, 12:03 PM - [Allied]: The British 8th army is in a world of hurt!
2/20/21, 12:04 PM - [Allied]: Didn't expect they would crumble like that.
2/20/21, 12:04 PM - [Axis]: They are
2/20/21, 12:12 PM - [Allied]: Turn 16. Mar/Apr 1942. Allied #7. CW - combine, Free France - naval, USA - naval, USSR - land, China - land.
2/20/21, 12:13 PM - [Allied]: US aligns Panama.
2/20/21, 12:16 PM - [Allied]: Tension roll=5, 1 chit removed.
2/20/21, 12:16 PM - [Allied]: Position of chit removed (0-10)=3, 1-value chit.
