    @the_good_captain I can’t land in Alaska?

    from page 15 top left corner:

    “If it [fighters] survives the battle, it must try to land in the same sea zone the battle takes place in - either on an island or another carrier. If it cannot land it is considered lost and eliminated from play!”

    In short, it cannot land on Alaska, since Alaska is not an island.

    What a rule! I will take the 2 fighters and the transport. I need you in that sea zone when battle is done!

  • @crockett36 Japan attacks Wake Island SZ and the submarines scored (3) ‘surprise strike’ hits. How would you like them allocated?

  • 2024 2023 '22 '19 '18

    The transport, the cv and the battleship. It’s my first time playing in a while so nothing to lose. I’m going to play this sub strategy to the end. Especially since there is no scramble. Luck has favored you so far, but she is a fickle wench.


  • @crockett36 unreal - shaking my head. Anyway, casualty selection? Survive two submarines?

    Capture.PNG


  • @the_good_captain no not with that luck. Leave two planes.

  • 2024 2023 '22 '19 '18

    If you haven’t pulled the trigger. Keep the subs. I want that navy

  • 2024 2023 '22 '19 '18

    Dying to know how many ships I’m taking with me


  • @crockett36 me too. It will be 2 hours before I’m home and in front of the active screen.

  • 2024 2023 '22 '19 '18

    Charlie Brown “Ahhhhg!”


  • @crockett36 USA scored 5 hits (+1 over par with what was left) - Japanese will retreat a single submarine to the Japanese sea zone during this phase.

    The USA can now withdraw some or all of its subs into any vacant or friendly adjacent sea zone.

    Would you like to do so? (This is in accordance with the 2nd Edition rules - TripleA does not represent this function correctly but its simple to use the EDIT mode)
