D's aren't coming back and, as it happened, the sub survived. It'll stay deep, as requested, next round, although I think it's better included to keep options open.

I just thought of a further option we could have done with the 3-box. Fly Me-110 as fighter and use surprise points to increase air to air to hopefully shoot down another CVP. Oh well!



AllenK -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/14/2016 8:25:19 PM)

Well, didn't manage to get to the BB's in Cape St Vincent but did manage to damage a French BB and the West Med is cleared, apart from a sub, for the time being.

Do the Luftwaffe wish to ground strike with the Ju-88 this impulse or save it for ground support? Me-109 doesn't need committing until after the Allies decide whether to intercept.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/14/2016 8:56:34 PM)

Ju-88 is for ground support.



AllenK -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/14/2016 9:12:15 PM)

I've sent the game file over to you to continue the impulse.



AllenK -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/14/2016 9:39:00 PM)

Careful with including the Italian shore bombardment. I think you would get a -1 penalty for more than 1 attacking major power.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/14/2016 9:43:53 PM)

Yes, I just wanted to give them something to think about [;)]



AllenK -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/14/2016 9:45:24 PM)

Fair enough [:D]



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/15/2016 10:00:39 PM)

HQ reorganization phase is tricky. If I try to protect myself from counter attack I reorganize Stuka and Bf109. If I want to try attack Gibraltar this turn I do nothing, take land next impulse and reorganize 4 land units.

I think I choose safe option and try to hold current positions. Italy should bring their NAV from Bay of Biscay at the end of turn to southern Spain. We need to clear Cape St. Vincent before attacking Gibraltar. Mean while I have time to move MIL to attack and retreat with ARM units.



AllenK -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/15/2016 10:14:24 PM)

Italian HQ happy to help with reorganise costs if necessary.

Agree on Italian Nav.

If they did counter the odds would be pretty low as I presume you have about 17 points in the hex. Allies have used most of their available shore bombardment and air support.



Jagdtiger14 -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/16/2016 5:23:53 AM)

FYI: The hex adjacent to the Gibraltar hex with the CW 1-4 INF div. in it is handy to have...you can put your best two ARTY there (plus a corp so it cant be invaded) to ground strike the units in Gibraltar.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/16/2016 9:22:50 AM)

I once tried that in similar situation in Denmark, but I was not able to use arty to adjacent hex unless there was red arrows showing that crossing is possible.



Jagdtiger14 -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/16/2016 5:07:52 PM)

I think that's wrong. I need to look into that.



Centuur -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/16/2016 6:46:30 PM)

You can use the ART during the ground support phase, not during the attack declaration phase.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/16/2016 7:32:46 PM)

Can I ground strike from that hex we were talking about?



Centuur -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/17/2016 12:45:50 PM)

Yes.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/23/2016 8:20:32 PM)

I think we should reroll. Bay of Biscay and Cape St. Vincent are good targets now before CW brings escorts. And if we get really lucky Gibraltar goes OOS.



AllenK -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (8/23/2016 8:28:02 PM)

I was just about to ask you preferences. Agreed, let's re-roll.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/3/2016 1:40:26 PM)

I would say use all points to air to air combat. We can't afford to loose Italian FTR and it would be nice to make them send another FTR



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/3/2016 1:44:25 PM)

Ah, Allied ship in box 4 also finds...



AllenK -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/3/2016 2:00:37 PM)

Italian Art in France will open up. How do the Germans want to play their ground-strikes?

Edit: Just the 6 factor Spit II in Gib.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/3/2016 2:12:56 PM)

German artillery fires in south. Does CW have Spanish fighter in range (3 hexes) if I attack disorganized MOT?



AllenK -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/3/2016 2:17:02 PM)

Yes, Spanish Ftr is in range. Allied air available.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/3/2016 2:18:29 PM)

Beaufighter is there too. Only artillery fires.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/6/2016 8:59:59 PM)

GOOD! Beaufighter is in West Med, not defending Gibraltar or in Cape St. Vincent. Let that thing fly there.

Edit: Italians can also shoot it down if they really want that [:)]



AllenK -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/6/2016 11:01:44 PM)

That would have been a result. At -4/+6, I'm happy with just getting an abort on the Nav.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/7/2016 7:55:46 PM)

German plans for the impulse:

Germany chooses combined

German fleet from Bordeaux to Bay of Biscay box 4.

If we put Gibraltar OOS, then I might ground strike. If Gibraltar is in supply, I do it next impulse when I have fighters there.

Germany rails MTN from Warsaw to Seville.

Germany uses all 6 moves to make good attack in south against Spanish isolated units. German units can do it alone, Italy can choose naval if they want. After this attack it is time to focus on Gibraltar...



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/8/2016 9:13:49 PM)

Who initiated combat in Bay of Biscay? Sub was needed to do it next impulse.



AllenK -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/8/2016 9:26:25 PM)

Sorry, my mistake. The sub initiated this impulse.



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/8/2016 9:29:11 PM)

Let's see if Germany can take another combined.



AllenK -> RE: Warspite1 Keep Out! (9/8/2016 9:32:27 PM)

I would imagine it's possible as the forces are pretty much in place and there isn't much left to move.
