For your planning purposes The move is 1 Rus fgt Yunnan to Manchuria.

I’m about 80% sure it will happen.

[Karl7]

Yeah go ahead w/ftr move.

FYI, I will be out of pocket for the next couple days.  I may be able to get a move in, but not sure.  Won’t be back home until Sunday at the latest.

[JuanSpain]

Ok, we will move Japan with that Russian plane in Manchuria. Russians are trully travellers in this game, we wonder were will the Moscow ones travel shortly.

Amazing place, never been there, I heard about before and saw now some photos. I see it is a 30 km nice walk from Reno to the lake, I had to walk that distance once in a little island because of a little schedule mistake with the shuttles… could be worse given the size of your country …

Success!  I made it to the cabin!  And we have Wifi!

I’ll try to make a move soon.

[JuanSpain]

Jejeje KILL KILL KILL everywhere!!

[JuanSpain]

Reviewing NCM, hold on pls.

[JuanSpain]

Only 1 item. We prefer not placing the carrier in 6. What is the rule? we save the money or the carrier for next turn? Please edit accordingly and carry on Karl.

Thx

If you bought something and then conduct combat, then the purchase is “locked.”  You can’t rebuy after you fight. Otherwise, people could change their buy based on the outcome of the rolls, i.e. this battle went well so I don’t need X– is not allowed.

Make sense?

[Gargantua]

Fair question to ask Juan - and rulebook is clear.  You do have to place everything you buy.

I have seen it many a time where people buy a complex or transports and then lose an important battle that puts those items at risk…  Part of Axis and Allies is having to purchase before you roll dice!

Exciting game!

I too wonder where the Moscow stack will go!! :)

Nothing is certain in this game!

Karl has sent me his planned move but I am 12 hours away from being able to view it.  Thank you for patience.

[JuanSpain]

Ok, I thought it was an option but it is only when you cannot place all. If you can, you should. In this case it is not related to dice, just a bad planning.

Ok, what we will do is launch a LL reroll in 16. If we save the fighter it will make things a little easier for us. I will just roll your defense and then we will review NCM.

[JuanSpain]

Rolls: 1@2; Total Hits: 01@2: (3)

[JuanSpain]

Ok, Karl, please add a Japan fighter in Tokyo and continue.

How are we on reroll tokens? we both used 1?

Enjoy your great locations gentlemen!

Stand by!
