Guam Solo vs crockett36 G40.2 oob

  • '18

    You had an excellent defensive round and rolled better than I anticipated. I took a lot of hits. When this game is over I look forward to some dialogue about tactical decisions throughout the different phases. I would really enjoy that and can learn from other players like you. I liked the 1-2 punch in Korea with Russia dropping in after before Japan can clean out the US. Nice.

    I look forward to that as well. I’m not sure the background of many of these players, but I consider this as the “big conversation.” My experiment this game has been investment in an Indian navy to draw you apart at the seams.

  • '18

    @crockett36 You have certainly reduced my navy in the Pacific. Honestly, my goal was to see how you would defend against a strong India crush. I saw where Gargantua used a tactic of placing the AB and NB where Japan could hit Calcutta on J3 strong enough to take it. I thought a blockade was best, but you’ve gone about it differently.

    One clarification - Mongolia will not join Russia now, correct? But is there any change to the other strict neutrals? I don’t think so but want to clarify.

  • 2024 2023 '22 '19 '18

    you are correct. no Mongolian hordes this game.

    scramble?

  • '18

    @crockett36 Planes, trains and automobiles - made the journey back to Guam. On the scramble - is it only the sub or are the planes and carrier also involved in sz 6 battle? And, is there an SBR on Japan also? When I open the map it looks like your other units are not involve in combat, just the sub by virtue of my units being placed there. Thanks.

  • '18

    If your bomber, carrier and 2 fighters are not involved in anything else then I’ll scramble just to make sure I can kill the sub in the first round of combat. Lose the destroyer if the sub hits. Thanks.

  • '18

    I looked at the saved game a little further and see there is a scramble opportunity in the english channel. No scramble there. Upon opening the file it immediately asked to scramble in sz 6 and I didn’t look past that.
