Save file for the axis

Europe at the beginning of Axis impulse 3, MJ 1945

Wow, wonder how many hours spent on this game. Well done Axis.

No idea how much time spent on it. However, as far as I am concerned it has been time well spent.

Thank you for the praise. I think all the players deserve credit for a game well played. Albeit a bit to slow towards the final part.

Desperate times calls for desperate actions. Or something like that. Banzai!

May/Jun '45
Impulse #3 (Axis)

Land: Germany, Italy
Combined:
Naval:
Air: Japan

Port Strikes:
Japan:
CVP1 -> Legaspi

Intercept? Plenty of options.

Intercept with F4U-1 (1 hex west of target, land to target hex) and SBD-5 from Bismarck Sea box 4

F4U-1 as front fighter, target bomber if you bring fighters

Indeed, time well spent!

Japan gets 5 points, and use two to reduce the Allied air to air combat (Allies 6 - Axis 2).

That did not work as well as hoped for.

Impulse #3 (Axis)

No Naval Air. No strategic bombing. No Ground Strikes.

Japan air action and no air moves? Massive rebases or reorganization?

You said it.

I added the port strike just to do something.

Just got the game save from the German player, and hope to get our impulse completed tomorrow.

I've been to exjausted during the weekend for any real gaming. I hope to complete the impulse on Monday, I am really sorry that I haven't gotten it done.

No worries

I was apparently so tired that I could not even spell properly.

Although, my spelling has always been bad, but now it was even worse.

Anyway. Onwards to other fun stuff. Germany made some adjustments to their lines and stuff.

Now to rebases. Germany, and Italy, use all their 5 air moves to withdraw airplanes somewhat from the Eastern Front.

Japan rebases all (almost) available aircraft towards their home island. Although some only reach part of the way. Few aircraft remain in Indo-China, China, and Korea, while the rest is now located in Japan.

Impulse #3 (Axis)

Air Reorganization:
Japan:
ATR3 -> Shanghai

USA has many options to intercept. Japan has some ability to counter. See picture, or save.

Will USA intercept the reorganization mission?
Obviously, I can not spell today either. Nothing new there.
