Yeah, full intercept.
-
No hits by the bombers.
1 hit by the interceptors.
Misclicked the dialoge box in TripleA when asking for target to bomb and selected airfield for the first, not the factory.
No AA or other dice rolled.
I think I will redo and add the loss of the bomber manually. -

There was a good chance that I would lose a bomber to the interceptors, and another to the AA.

@simon33
Misunderstood the rules and thought I could move Japanese units into Timuguska and not trigger Mongolia, but failed to realise it was the US that attacked Korea, not Russia, then the Russain stack moved in. I also screwed up and landed too many troops on FIC and didn’t leave any spare to cover Kwangsi.You now control every theatre and Russia has a massive income, it’s over.
Thanks for the game, very well played.

Those dice in the air raid didn’t help either.

oh and thanks for the game. Yeah, the worst part was USA grabbing Korea in a way it could hold it. Otherwise, you were still in this game.

Was that the plan from R1? I assume so, otherwise you would have moved those infantry west. Even now I’m not sure what the counter is, J2 & J3 Japan needs it’s air and fleet in SE Asia and the DEI, if it covers a landing in Korea then it is restricted on those key rounds and the UK can push out from India.
-
I’m always on the lookout for such an opportunity. There’s two counters, the land based one and the naval one. The 4 inf starting in Korea, perhaps aided by planes can prevent USA’s puny two (or maybe 4) land units from taking Korea. The problem with the land option given that I left all 18 units is planes might be toast to USSR’s attack. I don’t normally leave all 18 troops there, maybe I should. The naval one means just having a sufficient navy to hold sz6. Given that the US navy was north and couldn’t get to the money islands quickly, you could have been weaker there. Think I might go back to all 18 troops in Amur. It is much stronger than 12.
-
It denies Moscow reinforcements on R6+, but it seems a powerful strategy and if Japan is weakened then halting Germany in the Middle East is easier. If it is premeditated then UK Pacific and ANZAC purchases and moves can be coordinated and combined with China to pressure key places like Yunnan, Malaya and the DEI. It also seems a better use of the US Pacific fleet, which for me often sits off Queensland or Hawaii and is easily blocked off by Japan whilst it is busy elsewhere.
Obviously every strategy has a counter strategy, and the skill and experience of the player is what makes the difference. I haven’t faced this before and couldn’t respond to it, but it has been interesting to learn about it.
