Well, my attempt to get the gang to play the full version failed last weekend. I tried to show them how flowchart and how the concept of “Convoy Raids” worked and it caused a mental melt-down. That was just page 1!
So, they rolled back to Lite on one board and played quasi 4.0 on the other (without all the Naval rules…) I was bored to tears and severely demoralized.
So, I need some clarification on Convoy Raids.
Case:
If multiple Japanese IPC Paths trace from all their islands to the mainland are they all penalized individually, or collectively?
I said they are limited in IPC damage by the amounts of enemy SS in the region they are trying to ship through (e.g., 1 IPC per SS in the region). Victim determines losses.
It didn’t seem that complicated to me.
Perhaps it will require putting some of those zones like AA Europe in the sea so people don’t have to think so hard. They just point to the zone, count the SS there, and grunt (n.b., yes, apparently I play with Neanderthals).
Any clarifications appreciated.
