No action in the Central Atlantic. (Axis: 8, Allies: 7)




Orm -> RE: Rematch 4 player game (Orm, Peskpesk, jjdenver and Mayhemizer) (6/18/2019 6:13:22 PM)

No strategic bombing. No Ground Strikes. No rail movement.

German forces capture Gabes in Tunisia. Two other units reposition themselves on the Belgian border.

Terauchi gets disorganized in central China. Yamamoto concentrate his forces on Changsha.

Japan attacks Changsha. Yamamoto provide HQ support. The air force adds 5 points in ground support. I am assuming that China selects assault. Otherwise I can always go back and change to blitz.

The assault on Changsha is a success. But the margin was to close for comfort.

Germany has cursed the weather for a long time now, thinking it must get better soon. Alas, the weather has not really improved, but time is getting short...

Germany DOW Belgium. US reacts strongly and one chit is added to the entry pool (5).

Belgium aligns to CW.

No rail movement.

The German Army advance as many units they can into Belgium. The Korps in Tunisia advance two hexes northwards. And the division in Olbia advance one hex north.

The Italian forces in Egypt withdraw two hexes westwards.

Japan relocate the two TERR in Manchuria. A few units advance towards Chihkiang, and one marine corps makes an outflanking movement north of Chihkiang.

Orm -> RE: Rematch 4 player game (Orm, Peskpesk, jjdenver and Mayhemizer) (6/23/2019 4:38:51 PM)

Germany makes three land attacks.

Will CW include the Belgian notional in Brussels?

The odds before air support, and before HQ support, is as follows:
Antwerp: 37:9 -> +6.22 (HQA Rundstedt is cancelling the negative city modifier)
Liege: Automatic
Brussels: 19:2 -> +14 (not +15 as the picture shows, I suspect that the factory modifier is forgotten at this juncture)

Edit: I was wrong with the attack being +14 on Brussels, I forgot the +1 because the notional is disrupted. One reason of my error is that the attack was listed as +14 before the notional form appeared. So the attack was indeed +15.

Mayhemizer_slith -> RE: Rematch 4 player game (Orm, Peskpesk, jjdenver and Mayhemizer) (6/23/2019 5:05:49 PM)

Yes to notional. Assault to all attacks.




Orm -> RE: Rematch 4 player game (Orm, Peskpesk, jjdenver and Mayhemizer) (6/23/2019 5:32:56 PM)

von Rundstedt declare HQ support for the assault on Antwerp.

Germany adds all available aircraft for ground support. Four fighters and six bombers. Three points are added to the attack on Brussels and 26 points are added to the attack on Antwerp.

Note that I was wrong on the odds on Brussels before the support. It was indeed +15. See edit in my previous post.

The assault on Antwerp is a partial success. The city is captured but many of the attacking forces becomes disorganized.

The shatter against the Belgian in Antwerp is converted to retreat. The assault on Liege was automatic.
