warspite1 -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (6/20/2018 4:27:37 AM)

Mar/Apr 1943
Impulse: 9 (Allies)


Land Movement (Cont):
China

Not much to report. The 6th Infantry Army takes Swatow and then heads back into the mountains, while the 1st Cavalry Corps moves to the coast south of Hanoi.

Soviet Union

The Mongolian cavalry almost make their destination but fall one hex short.

On the Eastern Front there are a few movements - Stalino is retaken.

Chinese Communists

The 7th Garrison Army continues its movement east.

Debark:
Commonwealth

Mountbatten is given command in Southeast Asia and makes a triumphal "I'll be back" style return to Singapore - until someone reminds him he was never there before so can't be returning....

Land Combat: None

Air Rebase:
Commonwealth

A Spitfire rebases from London to sunny south Wales.

France

The Dakota ATR moves from Rabat to Mogador.
One of the two Farmans moves from Homs to be near its buddy in Tunisia.

United States

The USS Independence delivers its carrier plane to the USS Enterprise.

Soviet Union

A couple of fighters move closer to the front, the Spitfire heads to a new base near Kharkov and a MiG-1 rebases east of Gomel.

Reorganisation:

United States

Nimitz uses his 3-points to make Lexington II, Enterprise and Go Bama! active once more.

Commonwealth

Alexander brings a Spitfire and Beaufighter back into play.

End of Turn:

The turn ends on less than a 4. A 7 is thrown and so the game moves back to the foul, smelly Axis.

Weather:

Mar/Apr 1943
Impulse: 11 (Axis)

Orm -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (2/13/2019 1:18:41 PM)

No declarations of war.

Land: USSR, CW, USA
Combined: China, France
Naval:

No port strikes.

China fly one FTR2, and CW one FTR3, to the South China Sea.

No naval movement.

China activates combat in the South China Sea. USA reinforce the 3-box with one NAV3.

Japan can reinforce the sea area with a NAV2 from Hong Kong. It reach up to the 2-box. Will Japan add the naval bomber to the South China Sea?

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (2/13/2019 6:03:32 PM)

No thank you.




Orm -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (2/14/2019 7:03:47 PM)

No combat in the South China Sea. SUB was excluded. (Allies 8, Axis 3)




Orm -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (2/14/2019 7:11:07 PM)

CW bombs Barcelona with one LND4. It is escorted by one FTR2. Germany can intercept the raid with one FTR2. Will they do so?

Yes please, land to same hex.




Orm -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (2/14/2019 7:27:56 PM)

No effect for the first combat round. Allies stay. Does Germany stay as well?

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (2/14/2019 7:29:49 PM)

Stay until someone is aborted or shot down, then we think again [:)]




Orm -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (2/14/2019 7:43:06 PM)

Ok. [:)]

CW didn't have the nerve to stay after the bomber was cleared, so their FTR2 aborted before someone was aborted or shot down. [:D]

warspite1 -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (4/6/2019 9:38:45 AM)

Ormster and AllenK - can I ask you to have a look at the Minor Conflict thread please? I'm being a bit of a numpty (as usual) and am struggling to understand what we agreed on Strategic Bombing and why?

Can you help a muppet in his frail dotage?

Thanks!




Admiral Delabroglio -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (4/14/2019 8:44:27 PM)

Hello
Is it just my imagination, or is Orm's luck in air to air combat slightly disappointing for the Allies?
Maybe you should scrap all those unreliable shiny fancy new Typhoons and Lightnings and stick to your trusty Gladiators

Good to see the AAR proceed

Best regards




Orm -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (4/15/2019 11:59:58 AM)

The air combat has been somewhat disappointing to the Western Allies. However, I am sure that all players face disappointments from time to time. In part, it is how you adapt, and respond, to them that makes the most difference.

So no, we will not retire the new Typhoons, and Lightnings, in favour of the Gladiators. We will continue developing new aircraft types. And if our air superiority isn't enough. Then we will strive to become even more superior.




Orm -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (4/15/2019 12:01:40 PM)

I had a minor EOT trouble. SNAFU, if you will. I hope to muster the energy to solve this, and get this game continuing soon. Maybe not before Eastern. But surely soon thereafter.




Orm -> RE: 4 player E-mail: AAR (3/7/2020 12:06:51 PM)

I was going to make an attempt to revive this game, but I didn't find the end of turn instructions for USSR, and China. Any idea where I can find them?
