Mayhemizer vs AllenK: The rematch

[Mayhemizer_slith]

I dare you...

Edit: Remember the storm.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Mean while in Cape Verde Basin Italian subs are hunting.

Axis 2, Allies 4.

3 points don't increase damage so Italians choose first target.

How does Allies choose other targets (French CP takes D or A)?

Does Allies stay and where does aborted ships go?

[AllenK]

French CP to take the D. Aborts to Gib if you please.

Decline combat in Italian Coast but initiate in East Med.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

2nd round Axis 5, Allies 4. Combat is over.

In East Med French CL is used to initiate combat.

Both rolled 3 and failed to find each others in bad weather.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

German artillery will ground strike Paris. Elsewhere there will be desperate factor one attempts (2 in China and 1 in Finland).

Finland [33,51] roll 5 fails.

I call Paris success.

Edit: In Northern China CAV gets roll 10 and GAR roll 9. As usual.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

4 land combat are declared.

2 in China, 1 in Finland and Paris.

Does France want to use defending HQ support?

And I realized during my impulse that CW can align Yugoslavia after my impulse. I sense lots of troubles...

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Does USSR want to fly defending ground support with Pe-2 (snow and forest = factor 1)? And does USSR want to use winterized units in defense?

Here are final odds if Allies answer "yes" to every question.

Is assault chosen in every combat?

Edit: I might have miscalculated attack odds in Finland, but who cares when things are not going well anyway. Sons of north, ATTACK!

[AllenK]

French will use HQ support.

USSR will use winterised bonus but not the Pe-2.

Both combats as assault. Not sure about the ones in China until I see them.

Thanks.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

In China attacks are vs cav and cav div trying to break Japanese lines.

[AllenK]

Need to see them, or at least the odds.

[AlbertN]

The odds are listed above in the Combat Selection screenshot; A +14.66 and a +16.

[AllenK]

Thanks Cohen, my mistake. That's what comes of trying to view these screenshots on a mobile phone.

Go with Assault table for both, if you please.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

First one goes well

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Japan had two easy attacks

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Paris is finally captured!

Where do 2 fighters want to rebase?

[AllenK]

If they can get to Toulouse or Bordeaux, then 1 each to these, otherwise, Lyons.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Fighters are rebased to Toulouse or Bordeaux.

Partial success in Finland.

[Mayhemizer_slith]

Germany rebases Condor from Germany to Sicily and Bf110 from Germany to Hungary.

Greece adventure was not a good idea in bad weather... Now we will pay for that.

[AllenK]

I might be missing something but with 4 corps in Greece, the option for CW to align Yugoslavia isn't showing at the DoW step. I've posted it to Tech Support.

[AllenK]

Fortunately, I was missing something - a few marbles and a couple of screws some may well say - and the game can continue.

A communique is received in Berlin.

Dear Little Bavarian Corporal,

Casting a glance over the latest Disposition of Forces summary, prepared by my intelligence staff, I notice the ratio of forces along our common border has fallen to a level where I am no longer bound by the terms of the Special Agreement Between our Two Great Nations. I trust you will not take offence at my decision I will no longer be bound by its terms and conditions.

Your most obedient servant,

Uncle Joe.
