Turn 33. Jan/Feb 1945. Axis #7. Impulse #233.
Weather & Actions.
(1) Another Weather D10=1! That's three 1's in a row.
(2) First impulse pair had a +1 DRM.
(3) The allies couldn't buy a fine weather impulse last Sep/Oct turn.
(4) Now, they get 2 fine weather impulses in Nov/Dec everywhere except the arctic.
(5) This is killing the Soviet White Print armies in the arctic; but otherwise it's an unexpected boom for the allies.
(6) Germany can't risk passing and hoping the turn ends on a 30% chance, so they'll take a land.
(7) Remember, hoping for luck is NOT a strategy.
(8) There's really nothing Japan can, or needs to, do so they'll pass in order to up end of turn chance to 20%.
(9) If the turn doesn't end, Germany already at a tipping point may be tipped over.
(10) By the way, this last allied impulse was a BLAST.
(11) I've spent probably 12-hours today playing and documenting it.
(12) The air combat was just wild.
(13) In my mind I saw the sky covered with planes and countless ariel battles.
(14) Also, there were 19 land combats.
(15) The world was literally on fire, in flames, this impulse.
(16) In fact I think the dice gods got a bit tired as their land combat rolls were really poor towards the end.
(17) While I have an order in which I document the land combats, those aren't the order that I resolve them.
(18) Unless there's a specific reason not to, for example putting flipped units out of supply for a following land combat, I will follow the sequence that MWIF gives me.
(19) The allies started off hot rolling 2D10 of 20, 16; however near the end they were rolling 4, 5, 6.
(20) I, as the Western Allies, was sweating the land combat resolution for the airborne drop which was one of the last.
(21) Luckily, for the US, they rolled a 2D10=12 if I remember correctly.
(22) Obviously, Germany barring anything I don't see, should be finished in a few turns.
(23) Japan's a different story in that their Home Islands are heavily defended.
(24) I've never played with atomic bombs but that's my plan for Japan.
(25) Build the bomb and bomb them
(26) Trying to invade would be suicide.
(27) Phew ... long but fun day.
