[wheatbeer]

I assumed you’d lose the aa first in Burma. I didn’t expect the strafe to work so precisely.

If theoretically, you wanted to save the aa for last, and that’s all you had left after the end of the second round of combat, would that mean that the UK would be forced to take control of Burma? Or would I still have the option to retreat?

[wheatbeer]

I think I would probably still be able to retreat despite the lack of defense value on the aa gun, though I’ll ask to be sure.

If that’s correct, and you would have saved it, you can swap the artillery for an aa gun.

[666]

I guess I can’t have the LL results for the ITA dog fight or the Burma attack?

That was a smart move…the SBR of the airfield etc…never expected that.

[666]

didn’t expect you to attack the J trn’s either…I thought about dropping a dd or 2. Not sure if it was worth the cv, dd & tac? perhaps

@JWW:

I guess I can’t have the LL results for the ITA dog fight or the Burma attack?

They can both be low luck if you want … though after Japan’s income exceeds America’s it might be game over.

@JWW:

didn’t expect you to attack the J trn’s either…I thought about dropping a dd or 2. Not sure if it was worth the cv, dd & tac? perhaps

If my units hit on defense it might come close to evening out.

–-

By the way, are you aware that air and naval bases remain operational so long as they have less than 3 damage? (so no need to fully repair)

[wheatbeer]

Also, I just got an answer about retreating from just an aa gun in the FAQ. If Japan saves it’s aa gun, you could force the UK to take control of Burma (leaving that whole force sticking out).

I thought that since aa guns count as casualties they could be retreated from (unlike in OOB where the aa guns are captured), but I was wrong. I didn’t think the OOL would matter, but if you would have saved the aa gun for round 2, you have the option to force the UK to capture Burma rather than retreat (and you can EDIT the map as such if you want … I would still have risked round 2 even having known the pertinent rule).

[666]

so what are you saying exactly? I can lose the art and leave your force in Burma?

I guess we keep learning the importance of getting OOL’s?

I do realize you only need a 3 or less but assumed you might hit them again….

sure put your forces into Burma…you cheater!! :roll:

[666]

I would have lost the aa gun first. So please proceed.
