wheatbeer (axis) vs kilroynothere (allies) G40 A3

Low luck still feels weird to me, but I think it's fun so far.  I haven't had to bother running an odds calculator since I don't need overwhelming force on either offense or defense for battles that must be won.

[kilroynothere]

Yeah I think it feels very weird. I specifically am not sure of the aa and sub fire. Both are those types of fights where you really hope for a lucky result... almost count on it, you know?  I think if we play low luck again (which I generally do like) we would allow subs to fire normally and for aa guns to fire normally. Oh, and maybe for interceptors as well?  What do you think?

Just realized, that I forgot to collect the +6 NO for China last round. So, actually have 15ipc on hand. Not sure if that changes anything for your Japan turn, but feel free to make changes if you need to.

I'll wait on the US turn until you say it is OK.

Sorry about that.

[wheatbeer]

Not a problem ... doesn't change my Japanese moves.

[kilroynothere]

Cool.  sorry for the delay. Work has been crazy this week so finally getting to think things through a bit more.


First, realized did not move the Russia sub… OK to move to z109?

US2

The US is outraged by the sudden and deliberate attack on our Allies.

The US Declares war on the Axis!!!
