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


  • I think its possible


  • Oops - didn’t see your question yesterday because I had this thread marked as unread already. I’ll learn some day.
    Yes, you can load UK or French units onto US transports even though those US transports just unloaded that turn.


  • its your turn with Japan. Did you see the post ?


  • Thanks for your help.


  • Yep, just one of the busiest weeks with work all year - recuperating in evenings - back when I can


  • Wasnt sure you get the message. No problem to wait.
    Only a few years I think we can stop working and have a lot of time for gaming. I loose Italy in R6 in PtV.
    And you are much faster than you said in the beginning.


  • Yes I am faster than I said in the beginning, I’m glad you remember that! You’re next, though. I just know I have tricky decisions to make on this J turn…


  • Hoo boy, I have a problem because I thought a destroyer could get from Japan to New Guinea but it’s 4 spaces.

    I am sorry for the time it will take you to look at the turn and figure out what I’m talking about.

    I attacked the transport in the Philippines with a battleship (I actually moved 2 there because I was sure I was going there) and landed a marine on West Australia with a cruiser.

    Now that I realize that my destroyer from Japan can’t protect the fleet at the Philippines (which strictly according to the rules would be 2 battleships and 2 transports) I’m asking for 2 minor changes, but if you denied them I would have a pretty big problem.

    I just want to take the marine to Western Australia with a battleship instead of the cruiser so that the cruiser can block Zone 46. This is not too good for me because a sub can go under the cruiser and the cruiser is subject to surprise strike, of course.

    If you don’t allow, I would have to block 46 with a carrier to prevent your ships other than the sub from attacking 35, or I would just have to leave 2 battleships and 2 transports there, or 1 battleship if you allow me to take back the needless combat move of a 2nd battleship to 35.

    OK, so I’m asking if I can take the marine to Australia with a battleship instead of the cruiser, use the cruiser to block 46, and to attack the transport in 35 with a plane from Shan State instead of any battleships.

    (That last adjustment would be the least painful - if you deny me attacking the transport with a plane, it lives but will only be able to travel 2 spaces)

    Anyway, you have the right to deny any edits because I want to go against the rules, but I’ll post the map as I want it to be. I’ll change whatever I need to after the combat phase if you deny - again, sorry it will take your time and attention

    This is where I had a predicament, after just making a couple of noncoms, including a carrier down to 35…

    If you OK the back-up, just use the J9 posted below


  • I see you also have the option to sink the Guam transport with a sub - so my mistake was not without consequences


  • Just making sure you didn’t miss a notification for this thread or something - hope all is well.

    Wondering if you’ll accept my request… :hushed:


  • Thanks, everything well, just a lot of work last days.
    Of course you get my permission.
    Is the j9 file the right one to go on ?

    Of course you get my permission.

    That’s great - as you can tell I didn’t presume it. I would certainly give you permission in the same situation.

    Is the j9 file the right one to go on ?

    Yes. Happy hunting! And take your time. 3’s too many for me, but I couldn’t say no to any of you.


  • Thank you for playing and dont say no. For me is very important to play against the Kings. I can learn the game much faster. And you show me at the moment what is possible in this game and this is very exciting/nice. But I think you dont get India often so early and easy like against me :anguished: .


  • Feel free to change causualties in persia. I choose 3 mechs.

  • @elche Thank you and I’m glad you’re getting a lot out of it. It’s pretty hard to stop an India crush. I don’t think I’ve played anyone who skips China the way I do.

    Looks like I don’t know how to take Persia and keep Russia from going wild.
    If you knew what kind of dice you were going to get, you could have invaded Tokyo and won.

    I edited 3 mech back to Persia because I choose artillery losses instead.

    I again apologize for how I had to edit my Japan turn, but you helped make up for it by losing absolutely nothing throughout US/UK9 not counting Persia, where you blasted 3 German units that are very far from home, with but 2 infantry and a couple of bombards. I like that, that’s something I would do.

    You’re third in line and I’m going to Kansas City this weekend, so will be several days - have a great weekend -


  • This was good work in China from you.
    The Attack on Japan was under 5 % to win. But I think I need at least 20 % to try.
    I although like the attack in persia but is nothing against your tactics.
    Have a wonderful weekend in Kansas City.

    Was just joking about the dice - I wasn’t saying you did the wrong thing! :)
    You’re right, no go on 5%, maybe 20% you would try it


  • I understand, you will say that was my last option to change the game :blush: You are right, I need help from Marti :anguished:
    But I take Korea without knowing what happens with the Mongolians if Russia move in with 1 inf ?
    And I forget sz110. All planes are on her own ac.
