All points to increasing the damage to the Japs, thanks.


Do you mean both East Indian Ocean and Cape Naturaliste?

Sorry, I did not realize you were online when I was posting pictures. I'm not on computer now, I will continue little later.


Yes please, for both.

Now, I suspect that run of 1's and 2's will come back to haunt me but, given the situation, this has to be tried. The Dutch sub will come to periscope depth and take a peek.

Search die rolls this impulse (of course other impulses AllenK has suffered bad results):

Allies: 4x1's, 3x2's

Axis: 2x1's, 0x2's


I only remember current impulse [:D]




Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/24/2016 8:47:36 PM)

In East India Ocean all three ships are aborted (Allied D, Axis 2D), rolls 9, 7 and 9.

Where do you want CW ship to go?

Edit: Is Perth in Australia OK?




Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/24/2016 8:51:54 PM)

In Cape Naturaliste CW ship is damaged

Japan suffers one damaged ships also, both are aborted.

Perth is good, thanks.




Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/24/2016 8:56:06 PM)

South China Sea: Both roll 6, no combat.




Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/24/2016 9:00:26 PM)

No luck with Italians

No hits in Albanian mountains

No luck with long shot ground strikes means extreme luck with land combat rolls?

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/24/2016 9:44:14 PM)

Germany rails INF to Syria, INF and AT gun to Kazan.

Japan moves GAR to Canton, MIL debarks to Malya and another MIL to Manila.

Only one land combat in Singapore with massive shore bombardment, Attacking HQ support and minor ground support.

I'm going with assault (+15,4), there is no reason to choose blitz.




Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/24/2016 9:46:55 PM)

I was right, there will be awesome land combat rolls after bad ground strike rolls. Why was I afraid to attack in USSR with +0 [:(]

FW rebases from Italy to Sicily and Stuka near Baku. Italy rebases FTR to Sicily.

Manstein reorganizes ARM and FW Condor in Syria.

On a 5 turn continues.

Interesting weather...

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 4:05:32 PM)

J/F 42 Allied 9.

No DoW

France Naval. USSR & China Land. CW and US Combined.

CW loads US Mar onto Queens at Pearl and sails to The Marianas 3-box. Trans loads a Mot in Australia and heads to West Indian Ocean 1-box.

US sends CV, 3 BB & 2 CA to The Marianas 1-box. CL sails to The Marianas 4-box and loads Mar Div at Eniwetok. Trans at Casablanca sails to East MEd 0-box and loads Wavell.

French Trans sails from Med to Bristol. CL to West Med 4-box.

Combat declined in the 4 sea areas available as they all contained subs only.




AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 4:15:16 PM)

The RAF revisit Vichy but this time ineffectually.

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 4:21:30 PM)

Soviets try a Ground Strike near Astrakhan. 1 out of 3 is about par.

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 4:30:56 PM)

CW rails Hurricane to Chittagong.

Nationalists move a couple of units SW towards the Indo-China border.

CW adjusts the defences along the East bank of the Suez Canal.

Soviets continue moving units by the Urals.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 4:31:17 PM)

That was mean, INF was supposed to take first loss in attack...




AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 4:33:55 PM)

Wavell disembarks to Damietta.

US Marines Invade Truk. It makes sense to include the notional.

[image]local://upfiles/47730/F84F142CABB443DD89412BE79E1DD199.jpg[/image]




AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 4:35:12 PM)

CL Nagara in Bismark Sea could add 1-point of shore bombardment. Does it wish to contribute?




Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 4:36:41 PM)

Yes please. Japan is late, they had a plan to bring HQ to Truk...

Edit: assault, thank you.




AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 5:20:00 PM)

USN adds 7 points of shore bombardment and 3 points of ground support.

40 mm can fire AA. Does it wish to? If so, all shots I presume?




Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 5:27:58 PM)

Yes please




AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 5:32:58 PM)

8 points of AA give lowest 1 of 4.

Once again, the Jap gunners are on the money. Rolls of 3, 4, 7, 4 cause the USN pilots to scatter their bombs wildly.

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 6:04:37 PM)

With the notional made, only 3, 4, 5 or 8 would led to the attack failing. Had the notional not made (66.67% chance) the result would have been a nice 18.

Guess what. Shafted again.

[:(][:(][:(].

Looks like it might not be too late to bring the HQ.

AllenK -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 6:17:55 PM)

Sunderland rebases from Tripoli to Aden.

C-47 from Greenland To Iceland.

Another impulse of Allies being screwed over by the dice ends.

Turn continues on a 6.




Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 8:53:56 PM)

I have not done too many invasions in MWiF and this turn has given me two important lessons:

1) Always keep on eye for enemy marines (I though after the first failed invasion that Japs are safe for some time as I had no idea how many marines US had).

2) When you invade, make sure it is A) automatic B) near automatic C) it is worth taking risk. In this case in Truk Japan had 7 disorganized ships including CV with 2 CVP's. Losing it would have been a major hit for Japan...

It was easier to see what is going on in WiF, when you had map in front of you and you see all the time what your opponent is doing...




Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 9:04:09 PM)

J/F 42 Axis 12

No DoW

Germany land, Italy and Japan naval

Germany aligns Iraq

Germany makes a port attack in Port Saidan vs transporter and cruiser. Allied 3, Axis 9.

With 8 surprise points I choose avoid combat as Allen K is offline. Putting all points to increase AA fire would give lowest of 4, not a very good chance to shoot plane down.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: AllenK vs Mayhemizer III: Oil be back. (3/25/2016 9:23:36 PM)

Japan:

Japanese CL to The Marianas box 0 (I don't want to find US fleet) loading MAR div from Wake Island.

Trans to Solomons box 0 loadin HQ from Kwajalein, CL to Box 4.

CP to South China.

From Fukuoka AMPH loaded with MIL to Bismark Sea box 0.

Trans to South China Sea box 0 loaded with MAR from Singapore.

Empty CV to Southwest Indian Ocean (to initiate combat).

Italy:

CL to Italian Coast box 4.

3x CA and CL to East Med box 3. I declined intercept in Italian Coast with submarine. I will replay it if you want to intercept them. No matter the result in East Med I will do it.

Axis initiates combat in East Med and Southwest Indian Ocean.

At this moment I remember my plan was to take combined with Germany to get more air actions and to move submarines [X(]
