M/J 43 Allied 9

USSR and CW land, US combined, FF naval


Pacific naval air and naval move instructions are yet to come. I play European moves now to speed up the game.

Naval move
Empty US TRS from Norfolk sails to North Atlantic. Will Italian submarines intercept?

[Courtenay]

Why does the game say that the subs need a -1 or less to be successful? Minus one?

[Orm]

Why does the game say that the subs need a -1 or less to be successful? Minus one?

The -1 is the shore bombardment modifier, I am sure. The SUB is in the 2-box, in fine weather.

[Orm]

Empty US TRS from Norfolk sails to North Atlantic. Will Italian submarines intercept?

Yes, please. Disorganize the one in the highest box if there is a choice.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

I have no idea, I didn't even notice that.

Weather is fine.

[Centuur]

Why does the game say that the subs need a -1 or less to be successful? Minus one?

That's because you didn't include the SUB's for the interception (the box is unchecked).

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Italians roll 2 and intercepts TRS.

TRS gets scared and seeks protections from 0 box and stays in the sea area.

I continue tomorrow.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Why does the game say that the subs need a -1 or less to be successful? Minus one?

That's because you didn't include the SUB's for the interception (the box is unchecked).

Right. Checking the box tells 4 is enough to intercept. Never noticed that before.

Thank you.

Naval air

US
FTR2 and LND3 from Bermuda to Central Atlantic
FTR2 from Tonga to the Salmons box 3


Naval move

FF
CP to North Sea
CP to North Atlantic
CP to Faeroes Gap

US
TRS from East Coast to North Atlantic as mentioned before (intercepted, stays in box 0)
CP to West Med
2x loaded CV from San Diego to South Pacific box 2


Allies initiate combat in the Salmons. Japanese can send another fighter to box 2.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Same fighter can fly to Coral Sea also, which is the next combat and Allies will initiate there.

[Orm]

No air neither to the Solomons, nor the Coral Sea. Thank you.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

The Salomons both rolled - no combat.

Coral Sea Allies 2, Axis 5 - naval air combat.
Allies used points to get +5/-5 odds to air combat

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Boring first round.

I was so sure Japanese plane is going to be shot down and did not ask which one is cleared, I can redo that if needed.

Do Axis stay or abort?

Do you stay in the sea area?
