Pejon_88 (Allies +16) vs. Naviator (X), BM4, game 1

[Naviator]

@naviator j1.tsvg I was second guessing alot, hence a lot of redos. Apologies for waiting, but Japan is my weaker link and I am still adapting a lot to playing them in G40. As the game goes on, it will get faster, plus the bid for allies is a novelty for me so I was trying to play around it.

[Pejon_88]

@naviator No worries at all. I just thought you may had forgotten to save and post. Has happened to most people here I think. That is very tedious as you need to edit per combat results :D

Take your time :)

[Naviator]

@pejon_88 Yeah, I know. Well, the hardest part is done, Italians are simpler however. I will be here for an hour or two if you will be having any questions about combat preferences and such stuff.

[Pejon_88]

@naviator Just two things with Japan to think of. First, remember to always keep at least one land unit in each conquered Chinese territory or the Chinese Guerilla rule will happen. Second, looks like you are maybe trying to block with your Japanese ships in SZ42 and 45. UK/ANZAC are not at war with Japan yet and such blockers will do little right now if that was the idea. Good luck!

@pejon_88 I thought you cannot capture Dutch islands without declaring war on J, I mean, I didn’t lose anything with putting them there, maybe something very minor, but I’m okay with leaving them. As for the guerrilla rule, you scared me there for a moment, but thanks for reminding me, I could have might as well forgotten about it. t1.tsvg

[gamerman01]

UK/ANZ has special relationship with Dutch such that they can claim their territories without declaring war on J. USA can land on Dutch territories when at war with Japan, but cannot take control of the territory ownership

[Naviator]

@gamerman01 Oh, thanks for stating it. I did not know that USA cannot capture them.

[gamerman01]

Not directly, USA can’t. They can take control of them if USA takes them from Japan, though.

You’re most welcome

@pejon_88 Hi, I blundered my combat move, I did not roll any dice, may I redo?

[Pejon_88]

@naviator Of course! You can simply close the client and start the turn over. The only time you would need to ask the opponent about re-dos is pretty much after dice are rolled. Even then some things may be allowed.
