L23 Harry X - Gamerman L+18 BM Playoff


  • Note that it didn’t have to be a sub… A single plane on Z42 could be used as well, because if it was successful, my carrier could catch the plane.


  • Planes from the Carolines to Z63 is legal because a carrier can go to 54. If the planes are destroyed, the carrier can go wherever it wants in noncombat.

    The rule about assuming all the attacker’s rolls are hits and all the defender’s rolls are misses (as in my Z42 attack) is necessary because without it, some arbitrary dividing line would be necessary. How much force would be required against how much force? If this doesn’t make sense let me know and I can explain more. Not that it needs explanation, because it’s specifically addressed in the rulebook.


  • Oh OK, so I think this will help you.

    If I had a big fleet in Z55, your planes on Carolines could legally attack Z63 IF you attacked Z55 with at least 1 unit. Because if your 1 unit won, a carrier could go to Z54 to pick up any surviving planes.


  • Thank you for explaining the rules I should know. Again a rule I didnt know but long time ago I did moves against the rules :blush:
    I need a long time for Japan because of the fight in sz63 with 1 sub, 4 tac and 6 fig but I dont do. With bad dice I lose my japanese Luftwaffe but over 80% to win this battle for me.


  • Did your sub fight in sz62 ?

  • @elche It’s a trap!


  • Now that one was an oversight.

    Sub fights


  • You wanted the fight in sz63 to kill my fig. But is only 1 battle and would be a Marti decision.
    Please causualty in Shan State.

  • Thanks, remove AAA


  • Good decision with the sub ! :anguished:

  • I just realized I need to declare fighters on carriers in 39, also putting in notes.
    They should improve Triple A to require this… I should have declared at end of US turn.

    I guess, 2 UK fighters on 1 US carrier in 39
