Here is a Facebook group for Australian fans who would like to discuss holding an Australian Axis and Allies championship.
XDAP-03: Dairyqryn VS Unterhund 505/47
-
I got carried away. I have a score to settle with him. :)
-
all score settling will be done through the game, not the forum…
-
yep I got to make big things happen with Japan! :D
-
Well, if you guys don’t mind. You’ll get USA and UK all at once and ANZAC with FRANCE as well. It should move the game a little faster until I return and slow it down again. (Not purposefully, of course).
-
In other words u-505 is taking over until you come back from a hiatus?
-
that is fine.
-
It seems like you guys are super busy. I do my turns real quick and just follow the big picture plan. If I lose oh well. Like our first round game, I don’t think I calculated anything, put much thought in anything, yeah it almost cost us the game / made it last 10 more rounds lol… but that is because of some hostile sea zone issues that rarely if ever come up.
I still do not remember.
-
Here’s the deal. We are semi-resigning. What does that mean? We not really conceding victory (yet). Instead I’m going to take over the game and spend like 10 minutes or less per country. If something good come of it, great. But the more likely case, because I can’t put in the time for proper strategery, I (we) will lose.
I’ll post USA and UK soon-ish.
-
I don’t mind a bit of waiting for a good game. Is Bold part of your team? He could take over if he has time, until you guys get back.
Anyway, I much prefer some turns to conceding, even if the turns are done ‘quickly’.
-
I think I found a bug. According to the rules, submarines cannot block amphibious assaults. Also Kamikaze tokens cannot be used against transports. However, I cannot enter SZ 6 and drop two infantry in Korea.
At first I thought, well, the plane can scramble. So I threw in some planes. It still does not allow it.
There is a workaround, move transport and a surface ship into SZ 6. Unload. Undo surface ship. Bring in planes to make it all legal.
I’m going to go ahead with that. Let me know if you want to scramble OR if there is some rule I’m forgetting that makes the whole move ilegal.
-
P.S. I will be ignoring the sub in SZ 6. I’ll post the pre scramble combat move map.
-
submarines block amphibious assaults if there is no warship accompanying
-
Wait, doesn’t that bring back sub-stalling?
Wait, can I ignore the submarine even if I bring in a surface ship? This is getting weird for some reason. Is my fever coming back? :oops:

You can ignore if u have warship and there is no scramble.
-
Okay, I call this crap sub-stalling part 2 but whatever. It makes sense but it allows and entire sea zone to be protect lazily by a single submarine. I call that broken. IMHO.
-
I choose to ignore the sub in SZ6 unless you scramble, of course.
So I need scramble orders and Kamikaze orders in SZ6. I’ve attached the map.
-
ya so basically, you don’t “have” to attack the sub, you can ignore it
but you do have to bring a surface warship along (just has to end movement in that zone, can start anywhere), if you want to do any amphibious assaults to a seazone which has an enemy sub
its in the rules for second edition and alpha -
cow, this one is up to you
i recommend that IF you are going to attack his ships during the japanese turn, then put 1 kamikazes on the destroyer, 2 on the cruiser, and 3 on the battleship
if you are NOT going to attack during japanese turn, then i recommend 3 on the cruiser and 3 on the destroyeralso, i do not recommend scrambling
-
actually cow, you should throw 2 or 3 kamikazes at the destroyer, then maybe 1 at the cruiser and 1 or 2 at the BB, and then maybe save 1 kamikaze roll for later (just to be cool)
if you kill the destroyer, you can submerge your sub before combat begins :) -
2 kamikazes on the destroyer, 1 on the cruiser, 3 on the battleship.
No scramble.
@Veqryn I am not committed to doing any particular action for my next round.
@Everyone else. The naval rules for every axis and allies board is different.
