17Playoff Ro8: JDOW Axis vs Omega1759 Allies+37

[JDOW]

So after the good G1 the Germans face the first dice disaster. I was hesitating about this attack but 20v10 with no AA seemed worth the risk. I wouldn’t have complained if you wouldn’t have scored the double hit in the last round.

[Omega1759]

Ouch! I didn’t think you would put units in that battle.

[JDOW]

It is close but 20 vs 10 is solid for a hit and run. I hope I score 3-4 while you score 1-2.
I would not have attacked with AA present but this one was okish.

Also nothing wrong in not attacking.

Very much a slug fest still, glad my Russian air force is still intact.

[JDOW]

Sir, you need to adjust, you cannnot retreat against the single AA in WUK, that was the whole purpose why I took the inf off. That is the general risk when doing hit and runs when AA is present.

The 3 remaining dudes after round 1 need to take WUK.

You must be right because you have more experience than I do, but can you point to the rule reference where you see this?

That will change the NCM a bit, stay posted.

Staling contemplates a vast empire that will not last very long!  :lol:

Appreciate if you can give me the rule reference, so next time I have a chance of re-finding this rule / thinking about it.  :-D

[Omega1759]

Interesting game so far, I hope I’m providing a reasonable challenge in spite of my inexperience playing master players. The only games I played at that level were my 2 games against Me1945 (one done, other ongoing).

[JDOW]

I am on the jump and provide you with the rule reference later, but I am 150% certain here. I had this a couple of times before.

[JDOW]

It’s page 19 Europe rulebook.
http://axisallies.com/rules/axis-allies-rules-europe1940.pdf

Condition A—Attacker and/or Defender Loses All
Units
Once all units that can either fire or retreat on one or both
sides have been destroyed, the combat ends.

As the AA cannot fire the battle ends. This is similar in case only transports are left. You cannot retreat subs then either. I am aware that the tripleA engine allows to, but this is a case where it allows moves against the rules.

I have also discussed this with gamerman, who is rule deputy before. But you can of course feel free to ask him to confirm.
