Rematch 4 player game (Orm, Peskpesk, jjdenver and Mayhemizer)

[Orm]

Yes, please.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

No additional air from Allies

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Axis 3, Allies 6.

If it's OK for you, I just overkill that CP and move on

[Mayhemizer_slith]

I don't think there will be more action tonight. I need to check odds to each hex before ground strikes.

[Orm]

Okie.

Alternatively, may I suggest scrapping ground strikes altogether? They seem so unfriendly.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Sorry my friend, I don’t think I can roll that good in land combat

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Allies bomb one hex in Southern France (intercept not possible) and another in Normandy.

In Normandy Germany can intercept with 3 fighters, Allies can counter with 9,9,7,6

[peskpesk]

plz, send FTR2 7 str(Bf 109), return to start hex. Target bomber.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Allies counter with 9 str FTR2. Typhoon fly as front bomber.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

German fighter is shot down but I feel like losing the air combat. I was thinking about adding 6 str fighter, but I had to save some of them for the future. From -3 it would have been DA instead of AA.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

FF bomber hit good enough, attack can continue as planned.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Marauders created foxholes so that Axis can defend better.

Rail move

US MIL from Algiers to Tunis.

Over to JJ for USSR and the Pacific rail/land moves.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

I went back and checked, Allies invaded to southern France in S/O 1942. Pocket has been quite static last year. Allies have also been in Normandy about an year. It’s time to move on.

Red Army inches forward slightly in Manchuria.

On the Ost Front the Soviets occupy positions that the Wermacht have held for a few years in the north, advancing slightly near Lake Onega and farther south near Vitebsk.

In the south tired Red Army Fronts (no faceup HQ's - the Wermacht withdrawal made us decide not to use an ochit to unflip HQ's) roll forward cautiously from the Dnieper area, eyeing the sky for Luftwaffe bombers as they start to move beyond Red Air cover. The Southwestern Front manoeuvres to destroy the 45th Infanterie Korp that is slowly withdrawing from Nikolayev area.

In the Pacific US Marines move toward Legaspi and occupy a small island near Truk while Mcarthur marches north in Mindanao and the 10th Mountain advances through Celebes.

I didn't see this one coming. TERR blocked my rail road, 3 recourses lost. I saw that one coming. But MOT can't attack, one hex too far from supply source

Rules question: If I manage to get TERR to Northern Rhodesia, can it cross the border and attack?

Rules question: If I manage to get TERR to Northern Rhodesia, can it cross the border and attack?

No. The TERR need an HQ to enter another aligned minor (any CW HQ should do the trick as I read the rule cut in below). Only advantage of that is that the HQ might remain at the coast...

Edit: Although, I am not sure if the TERR would be considered as a CW unit as it is a N Rhodesia unit.

Cut from: 18.2 Not co-operating
....
Foreign troop commitments
....
You satisfy the foreign troop commitment limit if there is at least one HQ from the unit’s home country there
(any Commonwealth HQ will do for Commonwealth units) and the total number of that country’s non-HQ units there
is less than or equal to the total printed reorganization values of the HQs.

The resources are not lost. You just need to ship them from Cape Town instead.

Italy must have some fun, and mischief, as a reward for such a long treck.

Not lost, but lost from this turn at least.
