Notes:

1. I assumed no scramble in sz81 during the US invation in Trans Jordan for obv reasons.

2. I edited the US sub back from sz81 and moved it to sz71. It was rather illegal in general to move it in the combat phase as it could not protect the SZ against a scramble, was a simple missclick.

3. I tested 3 different scenarios for that move and after tripleA crashed once in a “live” move before dice were rolled I accidently forgot to buy the UK arty for SA and bought Mech instead as in my first draft of the move. Again, there is no way this could be influenced by any dice. However you have the right to change it back to a Mech. Minor thing.
Sorry again for edits in the big block. But I am glad we are lenient here, otherwise such moves would kill me, the game is complicated enought:)

Good night and sorry that one took quite long!

[boldfresh]

You didnt use the right map.  I put a bunch of jap air in w ukr.

[boldfresh]

@Boldfresh:

yes indeed, here is the edit.  gotta go super aggressive!

i did note in the comment that the ��� ftrs are on 1 german acc.

#293

[JDOW]

Oh snap, may bad. I overlooked that edit and played with the wrong map. Indeed the position of the Japanese air influenced my whole move design but it is not too difficult to look for edit maps before doing such a big turn. So I see 2 choices:

1. redo the entire turn, however a defense hit round 1 would be kept in Vologda - I would prefer this now option but I have no right to ask for that

2. I just undo the WUK attack and keep the map as posted and I have the option to adjust UK NCM

You can choose.

Cheers and sorry again for the mistake.

@1) Entire means I take the map after the Japanese edit and start with US again (and the Vologda hit would stand)

[JDOW]

mhh. no… I am not willing to redo all the calculations.

Here is the map.
I moved the Japanese planes and simply undid the WUK attack. Should be fine now. I checked twice but please make sure I did all the edits correctly.

Sorry again but I wanted to go the fastest way and not delay the game anymore.

convoys go my way this time

there is a bombing raid of london with the noncom already in place unless any aircraft for either side are lost, then i will reconsider the noncom.  you can make the intercept choice and roll on the forum.  the strat bomber is hitting the IC.

[boldfresh]

DON"T FORGET to start with the bombing raid resolution.

[boldfresh]

i may need an edit here….  hold on

[boldfresh]
