The one with the 0 A2A first - if gets away with a damage then takes the second damage too. Everything to try and protect the convoys if that is even possible please.

How many surprise points please?




AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (3/1/2020 6:06:18 PM)

No surprise points left. Started with 5.

The cruisers are sunk.

However, the Oklahoma is too slow to dodge the long-lance salvo and limps away from the battle.

The Allies stay, how about the Japanese?

As said, the Japanese have nowhere to retreat to. The search/combat continues until every last Japanese lies at the bottom of the South China Sea or the searches fail.

Hold until relieved!! (in Japanese)




AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (3/1/2020 6:19:25 PM)

Any more naval air?




warspite1 -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (3/1/2020 6:20:47 PM)

Nope no more thank-you, I've spared all I can by denuding other fronts. Them boys is on their own now.




AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (3/1/2020 6:24:03 PM)

The two fleets lose contact with each other (both rolled 7).

Do the Axis want to have a shot in Biscay?

warspite1 -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (3/1/2020 6:26:20 PM)

No thanks




AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (3/1/2020 6:51:50 PM)

No air missions.

Soviet forces advance into Manchuria from the north and north-west.

Chinese forces push slowly eastwards.

I'm calling it a day there. I'm generally around next week after work.

AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (3/3/2020 5:30:34 PM)

Yes please. Use the Spitfire if possible. Otherwise, Nevada.

Mar/Apr 1943
Impulse: 5 (Axis)


Naval Search:

South China Sea

It is possible to use the Spitfire. The Japanese bring in two NAV to the 2-box.

Allies - 8
Axis - 3

The Japanese call only units in the 2-box. There are 5 surprise points.

The US has the choice of Naval Air. I move the game on as if you say yes then its Naval Air, and if you say no then I would choose Naval Air.

I use the surprise points to increase Axis A2A and reduce Allied A2A

How do the Allies want to place the potential Damage result?




AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (3/3/2020 6:44:59 PM)

D on Nevada, thanks.




warspite1 -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (3/3/2020 6:56:14 PM)

Houston we have a problem. The result on Nevada was a 4 and she is damaged. However, I had to run the program again as I accidentally chose New Mexico. When I ran the program again (with identical throws) the game is telling me its 1 Dest and 2 Dam [&:].

I'll have to run it through a third time to see what it gives me but I'm not doing that tonight. So either the next throw is a Damaged or an Abort depending on what gives? I can only guess I entered a dice roll incorrectly when I re-did it and it should be 1 Dest, 1 Dam and 1 Abort.




AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (3/3/2020 7:20:03 PM)

The X, D, A was the correct result. X, 2D was the next column up. I guess you might have hit a 2, rather than 3 for the 2nd AA roll when you re-ran it.

Pick it up again tomorrow.

To AllenK; are you intending to switch to the new hot patch?




AllenK -> RE: Folly a deux: AllenK vs Warspite1 AAR (3/14/2020 10:29:51 AM)
