G40 elevenjerk (axis) vs stalingradski (allies +9)

[Stalingradski]

Absolutely - please post it. I know what I’m doing (for the most part  :-)) as the Allies, and you have done a great job with Japan creating a strong Pacific shield while also crushing China.

(btw - I posted a long response to you earlier, but my internet went down and it was never sent  :? - it was too much for me to go back and try to rewrite it)

The Aleutian move is a good one, and worth it. The same round you went over 70 IPCs, you knocked the US down to 67. I had to buy the right units (transport/inf/art/bomber) to take it back, and it slows down the US machine in the Pacific. If Japan desires, it can also build a sub etc. and then take out the transport the US used to take back the Aleutians…

I’ve written about this in a bunch of places before, but most people don’t respond. I don’t know why, because it is THE cornerstone of my A&A strategy - the game is all about initiative. Units don’t matter, as much as what they represent in this regard. Make your opponent respond to you, keep them off balance, and with decent logistics, good purchasing, and normal dice, you’ll win more often than not.

The Aleutians attack represented you getting the initiative, and making me react. So I’m all for it. If gh2 or whatever his name is can’t understand that, that’s his problem  :-D

So I put my 4 bombers in London to bomb your Major factory and for some reason it just skipped that.  I will do it here and adjust accordingly.

AA guns

Rolls: 4@1; Total Hits: 14@1: (3, 1, 4, 2)

[elevenjerk]

So you hit one bomber.  Big shocker.  I think there was only one roll that round where you didn’t get a hit rolling almost all 2’s.  Russia has been brutal.

Rolls: 3@4; Total Hits: 33@4: (3, 4, 1)

It doesn’t matter the attack value.  It just adds 2 to each dice correct?  that’s how I will adjust and if it is different let me know.

I didn’t scramble your fighter from S Italy, as it resulted in only .5 hit when I ran the battle calculator. However, if you feel strongly that you would have scrambled regardless, you get two rolls at 4 and would lose the fighter.

I’m ok with whatever you choose - I play by math, and odds quite a lot, so it’s a choice I wouldn’t have made personally. But many people don’t play by math, and odds  :-)

My 2 destroyer on 1 sub failure off the Aleutians opened up a can of worms for me - that was a significant loss on the pacific map for me, and you have more choices… for one thing, it should have shielded my transport, and also allowed me to build one. What seems like a small battle turns into huge ripple effects.

Let this be another example for ghr2 or gh2 or whatever. You created your own opportunity for luck. I’m running out of troops to attack the Phillipines/DEI area. You are keeping the momentum in the Pacific. Case closed  :-D
