That O-chit would have been good help now, French units in Belgium would have been in deep trouble...

Anyway, Germany declares 3 attacks and Japan one.

Japanese attack is +16, Chinese can't react.

Attack in Warsaw is +10 after attacking HQ support and minor ground support.

Attack in Strasbourg is +8, engineer is leading the way trough Maginot line.

Attack in Belgium is +11,5B, almost all German ARM and Mech units are involved (ARM HQ, 2x ARM, ARM div and Mech). Do France want to use Defending HQ support?

Edit: Germany chooses combat table in Belgium, do Allies choose Assault in other combats? In China 2-4 CAV is being attacked by INF HQ, INF and MOT.

A good way to keep units in supply across sea areas is the use of TRS...in as high a box as possible and then defend it with air and naval assets. At the end of the turn, those units can stay at sea by moving down one box.

I'm a big fan of saving O-chits...I think you will do fine with out it...use everything as if you will not have another impulse this turn, because the weather will get worse. Be methodical and do not let rain or snow stop you from making key attacks. Is the MTN unit on the French front?



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 6:10:47 AM)

Thanks for support [:)] MTN is west of Antwerp.



AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 7:08:04 AM)

I'm happy to go with the combat tables suggested.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 7:11:21 AM)

How about Defending HQ support in Belgium?



AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 7:43:25 AM)

No thanks



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 7:53:56 AM)

Here are final odds.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 7:55:52 AM)

Chinese CAV is destroyed.

14th SS division takes the hit when Warsaw is captured.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 8:01:18 AM)

Strasbourg is also captured and it did not even cost my engineer division.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 8:03:51 AM)

All attacks are successful.

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 8:04:42 AM)

Minor point, but I would have included HQ support in Warsaw. Not sure if it makes much difference to the result as no access to tables.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 8:08:31 AM)

I did not plan this. This is a pleasant surprise after good combat rolls.

Mech and MOT breaks trough overrunning Belgian INF and PzJagI follows.

No worries. German He111 disorganized Polish HQ during ground strike phase.

With Defending HQ support one more German INF would have been destroyed.



AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 8:12:50 AM)

Fine. I couldn't tell on my phone that HQ was disorganised.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 8:21:49 AM)

I forgot to say this earlier:

Japan moves 3 units in Central China and prepares for counter attack.

Italy moves TER in Tunisia and captures Tunis.


Air rebase:

German NAV is rebased to La Spezia and Bf109 is rebased to same hex with Mech/MOT in Belgium.

Italian FTR is rebased to Leghorn.

Japanese NAV is rebased to Fukuoka and 2 bombers to central China.


HQ Reorganization:
Rundstedt reorganizes Mech, MOT and 2x INF. All German HQ's are now disorganized.

Here is new weather. It is not yet winter, but at least the Sun is not shining in north temperate anymore.

Yes, it is not shown during combat.



Dogfax -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 10:13:10 AM)

Still looks like split in luck from Europe to Asia.

O chit usage is always a tough one. I like to use them early as I find the battles can drag out otherwise, and the quicker the territory is conquered the more BPs you are getting early on. After all the Us entry penalty has already been felt. Get France smashed early then concentrate on other fields of war.



Jagdtiger14 -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/18/2015 2:55:32 PM)

France will have a nice PM...will all the French factories be in operation? I see no CW commitment to France, but lots of CW activity in the Med...



AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/19/2015 12:33:33 PM)

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/19/2015 3:57:49 PM)

4.5's at Dover try some long-range gunnery towards Calais. Much to everyone's surprise, they manage to hit something useful.

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/19/2015 4:44:44 PM)

Rain scuppers operations in China and Manchuria. The Nationalists pull back the Cav into Wuhan. Communists move Lanchow Mil a hex.

The French thin the lines to cover the breakthrough.

USSR Lnd rebases to Chita.

CW P-40 to bone and A-22 to Cagliari.

French Ftr to Paris.

Gort reorgs the Queens.

N/D 39 Axis 5

Japan and Germany land, Italy naval.

German NAV goes to Italian Coast box 3 and Italian sub to box 4. Another Italian sub goes to Cape Verde Basin box 2.

Italy initiates combat in both sea areas, Cape Verde Basin first.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/19/2015 6:07:42 PM)

Axis 4, Allies 8 gives no combat. Italy is disappointed.

Next Italian coast.

Italian sub initiates combat. Do Allies want to fly bombers?

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/19/2015 6:12:55 PM)

No thanks.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/19/2015 6:21:35 PM)

Italian sub is going to take part of action. It was needed only to initiate combat.

CW sub do the same and join Italian sub at the bottom of the sea listening the combat?



AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/19/2015 6:29:26 PM)

Yes, CW subs stay at the bottom.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/19/2015 6:29:51 PM)

Meanwhile Wehrmacht Generals are happy to see French army leaving their positions, only disorganized AT gun is left behind in Brussels.

Is is panic or is AT gun buying time???

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/19/2015 6:31:43 PM)

Axis 7, Allies 2. Do Allies want to avoid combat or try their luck with AA guns? Which boxes are included?

[image]local://upfiles/39586/70A1F6C41E8B457BB5DAE4507A48F101.jpg[/image]



AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (9/19/2015 6:37:25 PM)

Avoid combat, thanks.
