Turn 16. Mar/Apr 1942. Allied #6. USN Moves. North Sea. Axis Intercept Attempts. All four intercept attempts by the axis failed. The first three groups (1-3) continue on to the 2-box in the North Sea. The forth group, which was the lone USN cruisers, continued on to the 1-box of the North Atlantic.

Turn 16. Mar/Apr 1942. Allied #6. USN. The Marianas and the Solomons. The USN was too aggressive at this stage of the war to move two strong carrier strike forces into the Marianas and the Solomons. The force in the Marianas voluntary aborted last impulse after one round of combat which say the Saratoga damaged. The carrier strike force in the Solomons was being hunted by IJN battleships and submarines in weather in which their aircraft couldn't fly. They "luckily" evaded Japanese search last impulse. This impulse the carriers and their escorts retired from the sea area and to safety of Pearl. [image]local://upfiles/31901/5E12C0921BEA46FD96020967C5653948.jpg[/image]

MA42 i9: Axis Actions Sorry for the image quality. With my screen capture routine, with this window (and a few other, but not most) if I hit the alt key when in focus, the window closes, so I cannot just capture it. I have to capture both monitors and then crop. This results in pixelation. [image]local://upfiles/47448/FEDED096AA494604BF7D10DE89F009C1.jpg[/image]

MA42 i9: Italian naval moves is with the transport in Albania. First to the Italian Coast, where I assumed the CW would intercept and I used the Hawkins for this attempt. They managed to roll the 2 and intercept. The transport, then decided to stop in the 0-box.

ashkpa -> RE: Pat vs Ronnie GW AAR (1/6/2017 5:14:07 AM)
MA42 i9: Naval Combats Italy does not initiate in N. Atlantic nor the Italian Coast. They do initiate in BoB. Germans had flown out fighter in the Naval Air Phase and now react out a second reinforcing fighter. Though it is all for naught with search rolls of 6/6. In the E. Med, the Italian fighter initiates. I reacted the CW Spitfire out to the 0-box. With search rolls of 5/5,the axis 3 & 4 boxes find (NAV and CP bonuses).

ashkpa -> RE: Pat vs Ronnie GW AAR (1/6/2017 5:14:37 AM)
I have 5 SP and use 4 SP to make it a surface battle. CW takes 2D A. I made application decisions and thought it would be best to try and keep the CP and potentially the BC in the zone by taking both D's on the Yugo CA. It worked, though the CA was sunk. The Italians promptly aborted two CA including the one carrying the division. I am assuming you will stay for round 2. [image]local://upfiles/47448/D114A101D8B248B794C053497A4631B6.jpg[/image]

ashkpa -> RE: Pat vs Ronnie GW AAR (1/6/2017 5:15:47 AM)
Search rolls in round 2 of 10/8 ended the combat.

ashkpa -> RE: Pat vs Ronnie GW AAR (1/6/2017 5:19:45 AM)
The CW had the chance to initiate in two zones. First in the Arabian Sea, where the Japanese have flown the Beatty out to the 4-box. I assumed you would not initiate here. [image]local://upfiles/47448/8F25AE61EE294D20B6BA9ACBA103A40A.jpg[/image]

ashkpa -> RE: Pat vs Ronnie GW AAR (1/6/2017 5:20:45 AM)
In the Italian Coast I assumed you would search. The Italian short range bomber joined the transport in the 0-box. Searches were 6/8, so no contact was made.

MA42 i9: Land Attacks. Every axis power makes attacks. The three Japanese attacks are all automatic and Manila falls. [image]local://upfiles/47448/B8193A99C83D4F34AB437EA4D416F617.jpg[/image]

MA42 i9: Land Attacks The Euro Axis make two attacks and surprisingly it is the Italians who make use of armor and needed every bonus they got. The actually blitz an extra hex ahead with the MECH as well. [image]local://upfiles/47448/8B9A71EA993C46188D912E0D5C156696.jpg[/image]

The previous impulse move of the American transport fleet into the North Sea, unloaded, has me perplexed. In response I railed a few more units into Denmark and have started some shuffling of the local defense. [image]local://upfiles/47448/B77C2C0F62E245B688EAEB5DF7D54F8A.jpg[/image]

ashkpa -> RE: Pat vs Ronnie GW AAR (1/6/2017 4:51:51 PM)
Another interesting item, is the movement of two CW CP's into the Arctic Ocean, with no CP's in the Norwegian Sea. Perhaps they will arrive later. [image]local://upfiles/47448/81ECF3775A0147A8B7ADF0F3356D73CF.jpg[/image]

Turn 16. Mar/Apr 1942. Allied #11. USSR, Asia Front. Interesting. The Soviets and Japanese have a non-aggression pact in place through to the end of turn 18 (Jul/Aug 1942). The Japanese troop build up on the Manchurian-Soviet border indicates that the peace between the Japanese and Soviet won't continue past then. Honestly, I shouldn't have made the pact in the first place, which also included a promise by the Soviets not to invade Persia. The result is that Japan took out China without fear of Soviet intervention which the Soviets set twiddling their thumbs. A lesson learned for me is that the survival of China will depend on a credible threat to the Japanese from the Soviets and at times require direct intervention (i.e., Soviet DOW on Japan).
