    All right here we go. This is a test post; I also want to see if I can figure out the dice roller.

    DiceRolling 3d6:

  • '16 Customizer

    sweet it works. all right. you can go first as Russia. Proceed!


  • Ok I just sort of figured the map out too. It’s ugly as sin….sorry to impose it on you.

    Have to be mindful to add country markers on a conquered territory so that the Infoview box updates the IPC accordingly. Sigh in fact have to be mindful of a lot of things, including the money count at the bottom and damage markers for industry.

    There you go…such a painstaking process  :-P
    I’ll have to post the map tomorrow. I just cant finish it all today. COntinue on if you have it set up on a board, but otherwise you’ll have to wait. thanks


  • Yes, painstaking…hope we’ll get used to it because others on the forum seem to have no trouble with it.

    You have deployed only 4 fighters to the Belorussian invasion, not 5. It doesn’t change the combat results anyway, but I’ll assume during noncombat only those 4 fighters move to Ukraine?

    Where do you wish to place your 5 inf, 5 tnk?

    Yeah, straits are closed.

    I’ve done up the map less the reinforcement placement for your use, attached here.

    gambitvspitfire.AAM

  • '16 Customizer

    I could have sworn I put the placement…o well, I must have just written it down. 5 tanks and 3 inf in Germany, 2 inf in Southern Europe. Also, I believe the 5th fighter should have come from Germany-and all my fighters went to Ukraine except for the one from Karelia; he went to Southern Europe. And thanks for the map! I’ll do the necessary changes.

    Tough luck for me on that sub vs. cruiser. That would have been very helpful for me :) I figured it was a long shot anyways.

  • '16 Customizer

    Here is the updated map. In Saudi Arabia is the current IPCs of each nation (not income though, as that is automatically tracked).

    gambitvspitfire.AAM


  • Ok i’ll do UK1 tonight.

    Tough on the sub attack. Well i’m contemplating a UK long shot through so you may get yours back.

    The russkies just crumbled under your combined arms attack, sigh. Your Luftwaffe is looking mighty scary now.

    IPCs in Saudi eh? Heh just like in RL, that’s where the money is  :wink:

    While i read that on forums, isn’t there a little bar at the bottom for this purpose too?

  • '16 Customizer

    Yes, but Russia is looking like it will be a beast to take.  :oops: haha
    I’ll look for the bar next time I go to Battlemap…I didnt notice it
    All right, looking forward to UK1!
