End of turn is done but I do not have the time to post about it until later this evening. Axis won the initiative roll with a 8 against the Allied roll of 9.

Axis has to decide whether they go first, or not. Although Axis might need some end of turn information before deciding this.

AllenK has not been online, so I make call to Axis go first.

Germany needs to react USSR attack by counter attack. Germany prepares to push USSR forces back 10-20 hexes during this turn [;)]



AllenK -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (5/5/2018 1:49:22 PM)

Happy with the call.

Shouldn't be all that hard. There are 10-20 empty hexes between the Soviet lines and the German lines. [;)] The difficulty will be in keeping them. [:D]

Nobody is laughing in Berlin! [:@] (At least anymore. One colonel did, he voluntared to lead attack across non frozen lake in USSR).

Moscow stopps joking when (not if, when) entire line is pushed 20 hexes east. I counted, line is 20 hexes long. So Germany is going to get 400 hexes without any own losses. And USSR counter attack with O-chit fails too.

One might wonder if we are looking at same map and playing same game [;)]

Edit: I first wrote ”20 hexes back”. You would have said ”correct, 20 hexes west”.



Courtenay -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (5/5/2018 2:43:40 PM)

Looking at the map, I conclude that there is a virulent plague in Kharkov, as no one seems to want to be near the place!



Orm -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (5/26/2018 9:41:20 AM)

Any chance that there will be some action this weekend?



Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (5/26/2018 10:26:15 AM)

I can’t play today, but I have left instructions AllenK if he comes online.



warspite1 -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (6/3/2018 9:23:31 AM)

Gents - any chance of some movement on this game? I only ask because it would be great to get a game finished [:)]



AllenK -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (6/4/2018 6:00:07 PM)

M/A 43 Axis 1

Germany land, Japan & Italy naval.

Nothing before Italy sends subs to Faeroes and East Med 2-boxes.

Japan sends a CP to South China Sea. 3 BB's sail from Canton and Hainan to the South China Sea 3-box. AMPH takes INF from Tokyo to Port Arthur. TRANS takes INF HQ from Osaka to Port Arthur. 2 CA to China Sea 4-box and 1 to the 0-box. AMPH sails from Wonsan to Osaka.

Three areas for naval combat.

AllenK -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (6/4/2018 6:16:53 PM)

First up, Coral Sea.

The Jap sub initiates searching and sticks around to see what it can engage. As it happens, not a lot (Searches: Axis 7, Allies 1).

Next, Faeroes Gap. Same drill with the Italian sub. The Italians fare slightly better (Searches: Axis 1, Allies 3) and manage to elude the Allied hunter-killer group in the 3-box. The Italians use 2 of their surprise points avoiding some of the close escorts but take a bit of a hammering from the rest.

AllenK -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (6/4/2018 6:20:03 PM)

They do however have some effect. How would the Allies like to split the losses and where do the aborts go?

[image]local://upfiles/47730/31CE8A608DDE438A821D5BE146165938.jpg[/image]



Orm -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (6/4/2018 6:26:36 PM)

US takes the 2 D and 2 of the aborts. Put the US CPs in Glasgow if it is available and only US ships there.

The last abort is taken by a CW convoy and it aborts to Liverpool.
