No landing on damaged carriers. Planes need viable landing spot or they splash.
Stalingradski graciously teaching Vance the ropes

Vance! I’m back. Have you seen the new convoy raiding rules? Pretty important stuff. I’m more than happy to continue on with our game, but I’m eager to play with the new ruleset while Larry is still giving us time to respond. Let me know what you think - this has been a good game and I’m more than happy to continue, but I’ll be putting my main energy into the short window we have to playtest with new rules, so I’ll be a little slower getting moves back to you. If you’re ok with the pace, on we fight!
-
Hey Stalin! I Hope you had a good vacation. As for continuing the game, it is completely up to you. We can continue this game or stop it here. If you would like to have another game sometime with the new convoy rules I would be willing and almost able. I understand that time is tight. Again, many many thanks for showing me how to play online. this is great!
–vance -
I saw you started a game with someone else! My work here is done. I still feel like it would be good for both of us to continue on.
Larry keeps proposing new rules - I’m ok with continuing on. I feel there’s something to learn from every single game played.

Hey! What are the Japanese doing! :-D
USA to follow. Like Bilbo, I need time.

No rush; take your time. Beautiful weather lately, eh!

Your last post still applies… an amazing November. And I took my time! :)
I might have a hard time with the older ruleset - Infrastructure and I have moved on to newest rules… but if you’re willing, I’ll jump back in. I got frustrated for awhile with the constant changes… I can’t play that often, so it’s rough to get a few turns into a game and have rules changing… but I’m over it now.

Ugh - forgot a combat - my US fighters were supposed to sink your two German transports off Africa.
I don’t know how you feel about such things. It was part of my master plan. I’m truly ok if you say sorry, bub, but you didn’t list it. For now, I’ll leave them on the board.
NCM - move into Brazil.
Place.
Collect 52 + 20 NO = 72 IPCs.

Hey Stalingradski! I have been using alpha 3 too, so we can switch over to that if you want.
By the way, in case you haven’t noticed, some of the people who are unhappy about the way alpha 3 wound up are collaborating on finishing it. Larry seems to have kind of given up trying to please all the factions. The new thing is called Delta +1. Rules are being proposed by players and then voted on. Interesting exercise in democracy.
FYI here it is:

Thabks Vance - I hadn’t kept up at all… I wanted to playtest and give Larry feedback, but the rules kept changing so fast there was no point.
Thanks for the link! I’ll check it out.
If you’re interested in starting a new game, let me know. If you’re cool with this one, that’s fine too. You’ve probably gained a ton of experience since we played, so if you want a clean slate, I’m good with it. Until then, I’ll just try to crank out a few moves :)

sure fire away

you can star a new one or continue this one. I am happy either way.
