Mayhemizer vs AllenK: The rematch

[AllenK]

S/O 39 Axis 3

Germany declares war on Denmark. The US don't even notice (10).

The 2 CL's go to Frederikshavn. The CP's to Iceland.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

1 CP is forced to stay in Denmark.

Germany land, Italy and Japan combined.

That Polish Inf truly is annoying and something must be done.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

German ground strike is not a success.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Japan brings 2 mariners + Eng to Shanghai and Yamamoto + MIL to Haichow.
Italy brings supply unit to Libya.

Germany rails GAR to Breslau. Japan rails CAV from Manchuria to Nanking.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Two cruisers and CP in Denmark are aborted from northern port, where do they want to go?

[AllenK]

If they can get to Liverpool, there. Otherwise Newcastle. First they have to run the North Sea gauntlet I guess.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Germany does not intercept, they are waiting for better target.

Is this correct? Range 1 CA was destroyed. Maybe because we have optional rule "in the presence of the enemy" and it takes 2 movement points to enter sea area? Allies has Polish CA and Spitfire in 0 box.

[AllenK]

Sounds okay. It has to reach another port and with range 1, it can't. It would need a range of 2.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Japan occupies empty city of Chengchow. Roll 3, US almost cares...
Yamamoto moves closer to disorganized units in Northern China.

Germany takes Denmark and makes a move to stop Polish Inf in Germany.

Only one land combat is declared and brave Polish INF forced Germany to waste one impulse. Annoying...

[Mayhemizer_slith]

JU88 is rebased closer to Polish border.

Japan rebases fighter so that it can support possible attack in Tungkwan.

Rundstedt reorganizes 4 land units.
Balbo reorganizes transporter.
Yamamoto reorganizes 2 units in Kaifeng.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Situation in Poland and Denmark after impulse 3.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

China. Japan has all marine units in China helping to keep occupied cities.

[AllenK]

S/O 39 Allied 4

No DoW

CW Naval, France & China Land, rest Combined.

Oooppsss...Peder Scram should have gone to Iceland. I cant tell you how many times that F'n ship caused me head aches in WiF...kinda funny actually. In real life that ship had 9 lives.

It was deliberately left in Denmark to get as many CP's safe as possible.

[Finarfïn]

I don't understand, if you have put it in frederickshaven it could had reach an UK's port through north sea[&:].

Not a big business anyway.

This is not correct! The range is doubled when a ship is overrun and the presence of the enemy option does not affect the range. It only affects movement points and those are ignored when rebasing after a ship has been overrun.




RAC: 11.11.6 Overruns
....
Overrunning naval units
If a land unit from the other side moves into a port containing any of your naval units, they must rebase.
Before they do, roll for each disorganized or surprised naval unit there.
If you roll a ‘5’ or higher, you keep control of the unit. If you roll a ‘1’, the enemy major power takes control
of it until destroyed (option 46: partisans destroy naval units instead of taking control). Place it in the Repair pool.
On a roll of ‘2’ ~ ‘4’, it is destroyed. (Options 9 & 28: Any carrier plane (and its pilot) suffer the same fate as a CV it
is on). [Clarifications. Since convoys can not be damaged, when they are captured, they remain in the hex under the
control of the new owner (though they become disorganized) - Nov.24, 1998. If a non-aligned minor country’s units
capture naval units, then the captured units belong to the minor country, not its controlling major power. However,
if the minor country is aligned, then captured naval units belong to the major power to which the minor country is
aligned - July 19, 2007. Ownership of captured convoy points is determined the same as other naval units if playing
with Convoys in Flames. However, if that optional rule is not being used, any captured convoy points are given to
the major power controlling the minor country that captured them - Mar. 8, 2008.]
With the units from the overrun hex that you keep control of, you must immediately make a return to base
move (see 13.4.1) where they become disorganized. They may not embark units during this move. They can be
intercepted as they rebase and must attempt to fight through from the ‘0’ box if intercepted. If they can’t reach such a
base within double their range (ignoring their movement allowance), destroy them instead.


RAC: 11.4.2 Moving naval units
....
Option 19: (In the presence of the enemy) It costs a surface naval unit 2 points of its movement allowance
(not range) to enter a sea area that contains a CV (with a carrier plane), SCS, or aircraft unit, which is controlled by
an unsurprised (see 15.) major power it is at war with. Note, it usually cost 1 MP, so this is an increase of 1MP.
This doesn’t apply if, at the start of the impulse, the sea area contained a friendly:
• CV with a carrier plane; or
• SCS; or
• aircraft unit.
It also doesn’t apply to a naval unit returning to base nor if the only enemy units attempting to slow you
down are aircraft during storm or blizzard.

Thanks Orm,

It would appear the program isn't recognising the double range for the rebase.

[AllenK]

CA's York, Exeter and Belfast head from Plymouth to Malta, accompanied by 2nd Inf Div. A Trans takes a Mot from Plymouth to Gib.

Various cruisers head out for escort duties.

2 RN subs go to the East Med 2-box.

A 4 CA task force patrols the Faeroes gap.

The French send a ground strike to Dusseldorf, with fighter escort. Does the Me-109 wish to scramble?

That's a new one for me. Can you post a gamesave in the tech support forum?
