woops, forgot about the german bomber in Yunnan. Do you care if I use that to kill the anzac tt?
-
Looks like I completely butchered the edit after Japans last turn. I originally posted a quick NCM change moving my bombers from Phi to Yun, and then moved your russian sub to 114. Then you mentioned that the far east guys should have been moved. So when I edited those guys I didnt realize I didnt include the japanese bomber edit or the soviet sub edit. You fixed the soviet sub edit but the japanese bomber edit was forgotten. I had put them in Yunnan so that they could get to the islands. Would you have done things differently if there were bombers in Yunnan?
-
Kind of a big deal as I needed a way to get the island back as I expected you would clear the blocker with US and then you might grab Sum with Anzac (as you did). I needed a way to take that back so I planned on using the bombers. Otherwise I would have had to leave ftrs in Sum to defend it.
-
Let me take a look. I’m not sure if I would have done so only to draw a transport. My thinking was that you would have to at least move two transports or draw some of the carriers down. But I can also readjust the ANZAC move as if the bombers were there if I think I wouldn’t do it. I don’t think this changes the US move much but I want to check that.
-
certainly if I leave the transport, I can edit it out on Russia assuming that the German bomber hit it.
-
yeah I mean I get that its a big deal. But that was my thinking too, which is why I needed to move the bombers.
-
so lets see what we can come up with - hopefully we can figure something out as leaving as is would really hurt japan (which is why you took the island) but I did address it, but just butchered things with the edits.
I am not sure how the original edits were excluded. I am guessing I reloaded using the autosave and the autosave didnt include my edits. I guess the autosave doesnt happen when you post but when you advance to the next country’s turn?
-
@ksmckay I’ll accept the change. But I’ll need a few minutes to look at the map a bit and see how that changes things.
-
feel free to do anything you need to. Very little that happened in the pacific (even on US turn) affected what I did with Germany Italy. So almost anything you decide in pacific is acceptable (including changes to US, combat, etc).
-
the only things that would affect my moves would be changes to persia stack and use of US/Anzac blockers that the german bomber could have reached.
-
Yeah, I won’t be changing those things.
-
Its hard to step back and reevaluate what I might have done differently. I won’t change the anzac turn. I think I would have been up for it on the basis of pulling transports down and putting the bombers out of place. I’ll just put one restriction on the bombers that they have to be used in the islands (where I assume they would be) or India. I’m not sure if this would have changed my China move, but I would have been a little more worried about the China fighter given the amount of air that can now reach (and the possibility you could have given more air a landing zone in Tsinghai.
-
yeah they wont do anything in china. I expected them to go to Sum and that is where they will go.
-
thanks and sorry again. Confusing set of edits that all stemmed from me not downloading the correct russian file.

no worries. These would normally be more difficult edits to accept because of what has transpired since but I want to play against your intended moves, not one that results from a save error. And in any case, I can see that you had the bombers in Yunnan in your post before you adjusted to address my previous Russia edit. And you shouldn’t be penalized for correcting things for me.
-
Also, while I think the move that makes the most sense is Sumatra, if you do decide on a different move that is fine too. I can see that there might be Soviet targets too for example. It’s only the China fighter where I think I might have done something different. Although I don’t think an air attack on that China stack would be a good move (given how close you are to hitting it with land units), I suspect I may have tried to keep an inf or two more and maybe the anzac fighter still to be more certain.
