Elche (+18) vs Gamerman01 (x) BM4 rematch


  • I failed to add back the 2 US transports in 110, I just caught that - use this one

  • Hello JDOW, nice to meet you and thanks for your post.
    Thank you gamerman for your help.
    I started my new games without Vichy and was important to do so, because only the tanks left. Without 3 units going to N/B maybe the France attack failed or I loose my tanks.

  • Exactly. Too risky to take 2-3 ground units away from the Paris attack, thanks for confirming that


  • Tank goes out without even a whimper. I knew as soon as I saw the combat differential summary that it had been smoked lol


  • Lost a 98%er in the wrong place, but didn’t get hit by Leningrad AA at least. Ouch, that’s what I get for moving too many units into combat movement. Well, I think the defenses will hold.

  • But, credit where it’s due (to you). I only had one bomber terrorizing Bryansk because I needed a tac back to Rome.


  • You are playing the Allies well. Maybe they are your strong side too? Good pressure on both maps.

    Playing the Axis is such a pain to me. At least it’s a rush to plow into Stalingrad and the Caucasus oil fields. I’d better enjoy it before it’s all taken away from me.

    And those China rules are brutal. I guess they reduced the Yunnan NO and gave Japan an easy one with Iwo for 3, but still, garrisoning China from the east OR the west is really tough. I’m still going with the old strategy of rushing India, and clean up China later, obviously. But will I even be able to pull it off.


  • Thanks but its excellent play from you with Axis. You get India but you have to hold it and its far away from Japan. I cannot attack your planes in Thailand, only with help from Marti and therefore i didnt attack. I hope I can conquer this Airport later.


  • You are right with the China rules. Its much more difficult to win with Axis than in OOB.

  • Feel free to change casualties in Volgograd. I thought the russians won this battle. Only in historie.


  • I realized after completing the move yesterday I made 2 mistakes there. One is assuming I would win a 98% and moving too many units in combat move to Stalingrad and Caucasus. Two is not leaving stronger defenses, because of long supply lines. Still trying to learn the Axis in G40 but I’m learning a lot, fast.

    Wow, excitement at Stalingrad. I was lucky to get an AA hit and really, to not lose more than I did.


  • r6-2.tsvg

    Thanks for giving me retroactive casualty choice - I am going to lose 3 artillery instead of losing 3 mech -

    Here is the revised map before Japan goes, even though you will probably just look after Japan’s turn


  • I need India so badly this turn. Japan has multiple issues. It’s daring to try for even one money island this turn, and China is about to get big money. I look forward to seeing what I come up with :face_with_head_bandage:


  • And I hope the Z112 situation messes with your head as much as it did mine. :grinning:


  • I moved the cruiser and marine to Z42 but didn’t click the marine onto Java like I intended.

    His attack may matter because I only scored 1 hit with 2 infantry, 2 fighter and tac. The marine is supposed to be there so if you don’t mind, I’ll roll for him here.

    [dice 1d6<3]


  • 1d6<3: 2; Hits: 1


  • OK, marine gets the much needed 2nd hit

    Your artillery hit in the 2nd round but with my marine being in there like I intended, there was no second round so I will edit my infantry back unless you protest. Thanks


  • Oops, after rolling 6 I realized Jehol is amphibious so I went out of order
