[Thurhame]

Non Combat Moves

1. Move both Fighters in SZ 52 to Carrier on SZ 52
   
2. Keep 2 fighters in China.
   
3. Keep all remaining attacking infantry in China.

1. This does not require any move. Since the fighters are in the same sea zone as the carrier, they will automatically land at the end of the turn.
   
2. This is
   illegal
   . Air units cannot land in a territory you captured this turn. Please fix.
   
3. Since the infantry used their move to enter China, they can't leave anyway.

[DeathNote]

The two fighters can just land in Manchuria then.

Board updated. It is now Peregrine's turn.

[PeregrineV]

Board updated. It is now Peregrine's turn.

Before I go too much further in the planning stage, if an aircraft carrier is built at the same time as a fighter, can the fighter be deployed ON the aircraft carrier?

nevermind- found the answer (yes)

[PeregrineV]

Ok, that was a fucking crippling attack, as far as Japan's turn goes. Also, some changes that I see from what I'm used to.

1 Infantry (3)
1 Tank (5)

None

4. Combat

None

5. Non-Combat moves

1 Infantry - Central US to Western US
1 Infantry - Central US to Western Canada
1 Infantry+ 1 Tank- load to transport in Sea Zone 10, move to Sea Zone 8, unload to United Kingdom
1 Infantry+ 1 Artillery- load to transport in Sea Zone 10, move to Sea Zone 8, unload to United Kingdom
1 Battleship- Sea Zone 10 to Sea Zone 8

7. Collect Income

Collect 40 IPC

I think this covers it. Let me know if any are invalid, etc.

[PeregrineV]

@Aronis- These are only my thoughts on your Russia move.

1. Feeling ballsy? Tank from Caucus and take India back. Odds are in your favor.

2. Take West Russia back.

3. Reinforce Caucus- build new in Russia
-Max attack on caucus is 4 men, 4 tanks, 1 art, 1 bomber and 6 fighters (but only if you take West Russia back)
-Your best defense is 14 2's and 3 fighters, which means, on average, 6hits per round, making him make tough choices.

4. Token resistance only in Archangel- it's going down.
-UK is coming to help, so he reinforces (or fails to) at his peril
-US is coming to help, so he either uses resources to attack or saves them for defense by not attacking

Anyways, my thoughts on that...

[Thurhame]

1 Battleship- Sea Zone 10 to Sea Zone 8

That's not a battleship; that's a destroyer.
You also have a second destroyer in sea zone 20 that you might want to move.

1 Infantry- Sinkiang to Novosibirsk

I would suggest retreating both infantry, rather than just one. Anything left in Sinkiang will simply be slaughtered by Japan's advance, and since there aren't any tanks there's no need to block.

[Thurhame]

@Aronis:

• Do NOT stack West Russia. It is a deathtrap.
  
• Leave one infantry in Archangel to block. Take West Russia with 2 infantry 1 fighter (land in Caucasus). Stack as much as you can in Caucasus, to prepare to counterattack.
  
• Retreat your eastern units to Yakut, otherwise Japan will simply destroy them from the sea.
  
• Move your submarine to join my fleet.

[Thurhame]

@Peregrine:

I see you only have a tank for your new transport. Are you planning to stop in sz1 to pick up my canadian infantry? (If so, thanks!)

[DeathNote]

BTW Diplo, I will give you my two cents again once it is your turn in case you were wondering why I didn't respond.

[DeathNote]

You have no idea how badly I want to destroy SZ 55 now that you put a carrier there

[PeregrineV]

1 Battleship- Sea Zone 10 to Sea Zone 8

Thanks, didn't see that.

Non-Combat Move

Yeah, but he's attacking at a 1. I'll go for a little luck.

Agree, take West Russia, but minimal force to get the job done.

Eastern Russia area is a pain now. I have no advice on that area, because retreat and consolidate is good, but you give up easy land. And reinforce is good, but chances are you will lose those guys.

+1 Sub move

Yeah, but he has four infantry to your one. Even if he doesn't use planes, he has a 97% chance of victory, with a ~50-50 shot of taking it with no casualties. Even one plane makes it far worse. You'd need a

lot

of luck. That infantry would be far more useful with its friend in Novosibirsk.

I'll update the map later; I have to get to work.

Don't worry, I understand.

One more generic question: A strategic bombing (to remove IPCs) on the UK islands only subjects me to AA fire, but if I'm combating your units there I get subject to defense rolls from all its units, right?

The board image didn't upload to imgur properly, so we're stuck with an older image for now. Fortunately, the only thing its missing is the Panama destroyer's move.

If Peregrine is done, that makes it Aronis's turn.

[Thurhame]

Aronis is prodded.
