Same here. It's far to powerfull once the Allies start using their strategic bombers this way. In reality, both the USSR and the Wallies did use their bombers once for this before an attack. The ground forces which had to attack in to the area's thus bombed, were not making a lot of progress, because of the extensive damage done to the terrain, which favoured the defender a lot. After that, the use of strategic bombers for these kind of jobs was abandoned...
MWIF doesn't reflect this at all and IMHO the results table used (the STRAT bombing table) is far too optimistic where the number of losses are concerned.

Perhaps there should also be a bombing roll for a randomly selected adjacent hex containing friendly forces to represent the 'friendly fire' bombing incidents that occurred when the Allies used carpet bombing.

That kind of events made them to choose same colors of smokes for both army and air force in different situations. It was hard to avoid bombing friendly forces if air force have green smoke for target and army uses green smoke to show friendly forces...

S/O 40 Allies 7

The Allies look around at the pretty dismal weather across the globe and decide there isn't much of use they can accomplish. With a 30% chance to end the turn if all pass, they decide to go for it.

Turn ends on a 2.

No partisans.

US puts a marker in the Jap pool. US chooses lend-lease to China, which goes pretty well unnoticed (9 rolled). It also chooses lend-lease to Western Allies, which gets a bit more attention (8 rolled, 1 chit moved to tension pool). Status is Ge/It 6 in entry, 5 in tension. Jap 5 in entry, 1 in tension.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (11/30/2015 6:44:06 PM)

Yes, there was not much action in rain and mud...

Thank you guys so much for taking the extra time to enter all of your game in this thread. It finally made me realize what more people need to know: this game is ready to play, over the Internet. This thread is what led to me the long posts in the "Want to buy" thread



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 6:24:20 PM)

Thank you brian brian for following our AAR.

My game playing must more for fun, not for education [:)]




Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 6:25:16 PM)

N/D 40 Axis 1

No DoW

Germany and Japan land, Italy combined.

Italy sends 4 factor FTR to West Med box 2. Germany sends 6 factor FTR to West Med box 2.

Italian sub sails to Cape St. Vincent box 3.

Axis initiates combat in both sea areas.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 6:29:05 PM)

Cape St. Vincent:

Axis 10, Allies 2.

AllenK is offline but I think he wants to sink my sub instead of just avoiding combat.

Allies use all their points to increase damage up to 2D A.

Italy is lucky and rolls a 10, sub is aborted back to Bordeaux.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 6:32:02 PM)

Next is West Med.

Italy intercepts NAV to box 2.

Do CW want to fly planes?

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 6:32:41 PM)

Good call.



AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 6:33:36 PM)

Pass on the planes, thanks.

It was easy one as CW took NE for damage [:)]



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 6:35:25 PM)

West Med rolls: Axis 3, Allies 6. No combat.

Those French ships have sailed for moths without Axis being able to find them...



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 6:37:39 PM)

Germany ground strikes pocket with no effect.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 7:08:14 PM)

Germany rails AA gun to Stalino and 2x ENG to Novgorod area. Italy rails Turin MIL to Trieste.

Japan retreats. In Manchuria remaining 3 units are now in Port Arthur and they will stay or die there! (Doubled defence 28)

Germany declares attack against pocket in southern front and uses HQ support.

I believe USSR uses winterized units to get following odds? And I guess we go with assault?

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 7:10:17 PM)

Yes thanks. Winterized and assault.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 7:16:12 PM)

Odds roll is good and combat roll is even better!

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 7:26:05 PM)

Germany rebases Ju88 to southern front near Stalino.

Italy rebases two bombers to Latvia.

Italy reorganizes sub.

Back to Allies.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/1/2015 7:30:59 PM)

Northern front, few more units are coming south from Murmansk.

US sends a CV and 2 CL to East Coast 0-box.

Allies decline combat in West Med.

Factory is railed from Yaroslavl to Tiflis. Mil rails from east to Gorki.

Nationalists advance towards Shanghai. Communists see about taking cites and rail hexes. USSR makes some minor adjustments in Manchuria and USSR.

N/D 40 Axis 7

No DoW

Germany and Japan land, Italy combined.

Italian sub sails back to Cape St. Vincent box 3 and initiates combat there.

Axis 8, Allies 6. No combat.

Germany rails INF HQ from Murmansk to south, MTN near Novgorod and INF HQ in southern front to front line.

Germany advances slowly, Italy does not move and Japan retreats.

One land combat is declared, do USSR want to fly any planes? German FTR can intercept if needed.

Fly 1 IL-4 plus the Ftr, thanks.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (12/4/2015 12:48:28 PM)

They land same hex they start if German FTR is merciful?
