M/J 40 Allies 10 No DoW or alignments Land: China Naval: France, CW Combined: US, USSR. The French send 4 CA/CL's from Beruit to East Med 3-box. They are joined by 3 more from Marseilles. 2 CA's sail to West Med 4-box. The RN sends 4 CA from Aden and 4 from Gib' to East Med 3-box. They are joined by the Repulse from Alex'. 2 CP's sail from Gib' to the East Med 0-box. 2 CL's from Alex join them. A CP sails from Bombay to Suez. To save time, I declined intercepts as fairly obvious what was happening. The RN initiates searching with one of the CL's in the 0-box. The forces fail to find each other (Allies 5, Axis 6). No air missions. The Communists rearrange their defences. [image]local://upfiles/47730/B827B207D67E4A96A4202F202F1A91EF.jpg[/image]

The Nationalists move 17th INF 1 hex west back towards Kweilin, becoming disorganised in the process. 8th INF moves 1 hex SE from Chihkiang. No combat, rebases or reorgs. Turn continues on an 8 (less than 5). Weather turns inclement. [image]local://upfiles/47730/AABEC86E218D41E4B9CB0C89718E47C9.jpg[/image]

When I get to it, where do the Germans wish to place their pact markers?

AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (2/15/2019 6:26:58 PM)
A partisan appears in Malaya. Where do the Axis wish to place it?

USSR puts marker to defence. US puts a chit in the Ja pool. An embargo on strategic materials to Japan is called. It's met with some hostility in Japan (5 rolled, 1 chit to tension pool). CW keeps the CV/BB's in the North Sea and various escorts in the Atlantic. The French keep various escorts out in the Med. Ships in East Med go to Alex, those in West Med to Gib. Queens take Cape Town MIL to Singapore. Oil use. US - 0 (0.4 to reorg all). CW - 4 (4.1 to reorg all). France - 1 (0.75 to reorg all) USSR - 1 (0.6 to reorg all) CW scraps 4 destroyed CL's.

AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (2/16/2019 3:21:25 PM)
Not enough BP's for the German shopping list. It's short by 2. Did you want to build 2 pilots instead or drop something else? Edit: Never mind. Gearing limits only allow 2 pilots. I've gone with that.

AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (2/16/2019 4:10:08 PM)
Production China 5 INF MIL CW - 12 CVP-0 CVP-1 MIL x2 AMPH 2nd Repair CA London Pilot France - 10 GARR MOT FTR-2 Pilot. US - 10 CVP-1 x2 Pilot x2 AMPH 2nd Sub 2nd. USSR - 13 ARM INF FTR-2 Pilot. Netherlands government relocates to Dutch Guyana. The US couldn't care less about CW and France supporting Belgium (9 rolled). Reinforcements China - MIL to Chungking, GARR to Nanning, CAV Div to Chihkiang. CW - Belgium MIL tucks into the vacant hex behind Brussels. MILS to Auckland and Montreal. Beaufighter to Southampton, Whitley to Southampton. CP to Liverpool. CP to Alex. INF and FTR to Calcutta. France - FTR-2 to Paris. BB to Marseilles. INF and MECH Div to Paris. INF to Rouen. USA - Pilot to CVP, which goes on Ranger. Bearn to San Diego. USSR - INF and FTR to Minsk. INF HQ to Chita. US sets up a trade agreement for 1 resource to China. Intiative - Axis 3, Allies 2 (but with +1 modifier). Allies win initiative but decide not to go first. Weather is mostly fine.

Jul/Aug 1940 Impulse: 1 (Axis) Declaration of War and Alignments: None, although the Japanese apply diplomatic pressure on the CW to close the Burma Road. The US are not interested (8 thrown). Japan: Combined Germany: Land Italy: Land Port Attack: None Naval Air: None Naval Movement: Japan 1. The 1st Motorised Army heads for Pakhoi 2. Two empty TRS head home. Strategic Bombing: None Ground Strike: 1 and 2. A Ju-87B and He111-H3 head for Warsaw That's interesting. The program allowed me to put 1 die roll in only... I'll re-start the turn and try again.

AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (2/16/2019 6:35:42 PM)
It may be because having disorganised the only organised unit with the first roll, there is nothing left that can be targeted.

warspite1 -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (2/16/2019 6:38:20 PM)
Looks like upgrading to 3.9.5 was a mistake.... Same result. Only one unit should be disorganised - but both are - and the program didn't even bother recording the last 3 throws. AllenK can you have a go using your save please in case mine is corrupted in some way? Thanks. Edit: Just seen your post - are you saying one unit was disorganised already? How come?

AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (2/16/2019 6:40:35 PM)
I think it's working fine. The HQ was previously disorganised. I haven't been able to reorganise it as there is no path to an oil source.

warspite1 -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (2/16/2019 6:43:30 PM)
Oh okay - didn't realise that. Jul/Aug 1940 Impulse: 1 (Axis) Rail Movement: None Land Movement: Japan The Southern Area Army continuous southwest Germany The German Army in the East crowd around Warsaw. The Germans in Austria and in Holland move around a bit. Italy In Albania the 3rd Julia Division takes Skopje and Graziani moves north. On the Franco-Italian border the army prepares to launch an attack. Air Transport: None Paradrop: None Land Combat: Germany An attack on Warsaw is announced Italy An attack on the Swiss border is announced. Odds are 11.5:6 or 2:1 before aircraft. There are no aircraft at Warsaw but to the southwest the Italians bring in a fighter and two bombers. The French can reach with the units shown. One fighter (also shown) is available to the Italians on intercept. What do the French want to do? [image]local://upfiles/28156/469D4A824D504FA7A0733B5BAAAA952A.jpg[/image]

AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (2/16/2019 6:45:32 PM)
I've just checked on my version and it does the same. Only 1 roll.

AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (2/16/2019 7:08:50 PM)
Send the LND escorted by the MS 406, thanks.

warspite1 -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (2/16/2019 7:31:02 PM)
Allied: A 15 is rolled (AA) do you want to abort the fighter or bomber? Right I can't save the game at this point and AllenK doesn't appear to be on line. So I will abort the bomber. Axis: An 11 is rolled (DC) which clears the French bomber through.

AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (2/16/2019 8:47:40 PM)
Good choice, thanks. Stay for another round.

Jul/Aug 1940 Impulse: 1 (Axis) Air Combat: The line up for Round 2 Allies: A 5 (DX) is rolled and the Italians lose a fighter (pilot) saved Axis: A 13 is rolled for No Effect The Axis stay - what do the Allies want to do? [image]local://upfiles/28156/269816D71075461E8A72E0FF187F4EFC.jpg[/image]

Keep going.

Jul/Aug 1940 Impulse: 1 (Axis) Air Combat: The line up for Round 3 Allies: A 7 is thrown and the Italians abort their remaining fighter Axis: A 15 is thrown and the French fighter is aborted Where does the fighter (and bomber) land?
