11L '41 PGMatt(10) v. Gamerman01(x) no tech, Game 3

Excellent observation, and thanks for sharing.  I often make the mistake of not considering where I’ll be at if the unthinkable (2%, 5%, 10% or even 20% odds of failure, depending on the situation) happens.

Take your time - I’m playing all the A&A I want and I still am not caught up  :-)
Man I love the internet.

The Russian carriers have made a huge impact!

Take that, all you people who say Russia should never ever buy boats….  :-D

[Seador]

I dont know about huge impact, but hey, I should be able to build a UK fleet this turn too, screened by the USSR CVs, good stuff.

[boldfresh]

PGMatt, you DO know you cannot mobilize UK fighters onto the russian carriers when you buy them in the UK turn right?

[Seador]

yuh, the book really isn’t ambiguous about that.  That was why I wanted both fighters on one flattop so I had a cannon fodder boat.

[boldfresh]

doesn’t matter if they are on the same or different carriers because the surviving fighters can land anywhere after the battle (any valid spot within 1 space).  the cannon fodder idea only comes into play if you are attacking with carriers (the fighters are then just cargo and go down with the boat if the boat is sunk).  so if you are being attacked, it wouldn’t matter what carriers the fighters were on.

I’ll assume you keep the battleship.  If you kept a fighter, I could retreat and let it drown.  The transports have nothing to transport…… safe bet you’d keep the battleship.
