63 1/17/2026 10:54:00 AM Turn 1 German Player Message Going back further, this means that I only had 1 CA interdiction vs Sword so your 3/9 was NOT interdicted by the "2" roll and you assaulted with 12 - not 10 - resulting in 6 - not 4 - CPs.

So, the end result is my Sword CA is D2, and the 726 is also as it retreats to Caen.

Quite a difference you made on that saving throw Air bombardment vs Sword. I'd feel bad but you missed it before I did apparently. Anyway, now consider it fixed.
62 1/17/2026 10:46:00 AM Turn 1 German Player Message In resetting my board for this new game I discovered an error: my CA was already spent when you assaulted it the second time, so it is now D1 instead of spent.

Your A6/1 ...
46 1/17/2026 8:29:00 AM Turn 1 Allies Player Message Some of my 'concern - ie desperation' is that currently I have

Utah - any guys landing face 2 CA

Omaha - bracing for Arty fire turning 1/2 the guys D1

Gold - all but one guy ARE D1

Juno - the sole piece of better (not good) news but even there the lone armor faces a CA to get ashore

Sword - 5 guys that IF they land face a def of 9

Leaving me feeling desperate and the game has not even got to Impulse 3 so we could even have an upcoming weather change or early end of day.....
45 1/17/2026 8:24:00 AM Turn 1 Allies Player Message I would say I am MORE Terrified of the interdiction rolls than I am about failing an attack....perhaps I need to rethink that....
44 1/17/2026 8:23:00 AM Turn 1 Allies Player Message with 2 CA still active, I was thinking that if I could get the lone unit to spent, thus taking out the fort, the other guys would have a better chance than facing 2 guns (like in GOLD)
43 1/17/2026 8:21:00 AM Turn 1 Allies Player Message In the words of the guardian of the grail in Indiana Jones..... "He chose POORLY".....
42 1/17/2026 8:20:00 AM Turn 1 Allies Player Message MADNESS - I will NOT land the last guy as the attack - if it were to happen would be 5 - 6 anyway.

39 1/17/2026 8:15:00 AM Turn 1 German Player Message Now I have a question for you. What did you expect to gain by assaulting Sword with a single unit? I understand why attacking Gold at 5:6 is effective - primarily it is to free the armor from the OVR prohibition to first landing units. At Gold there are vulnerable targets to assault after an OVR - or better yet a cleared beach, but that generally does not exist at Sword unless both areas 7 & 8 have been reduced. Certainly not when both are fresh. I don't see what you gain by delaying landing in force at Sword. You just increase the possibility of having one less unit to make the assault that gets past the fortifications.
38 1/17/2026 8:15:00 AM Turn 1 Allies Player Message That is sort of what I thought but the rules ONLY specified this on D-DAY and did not indicate this carried over - if this was NOT a beach (with an active fort) the unit would (at this point) just be spent.

Okay more guys trying to land now
37 1/17/2026 8:06:00 AM Turn 1 German Player Message The Armor was successfully interdicted in a mandatory assault. If no assault takes place because all landing units are spent (or D1), the assault fails, and ALL landing units are D1. To avoid becoming D1, other units must land in the same impulse and make a successful assault (or a stalemate).
36 1/16/2026 5:30:00 PM Turn 1 Allies Player Message I feel I should KNOW the answer to this but I read (and re-read) the rules but got only more confused with things that were not 'said straight out'.

Against 2 guns my tank attempted to land on Gold - I rolled a 2 normally that would make him spent - However, rules state that entering an area (beach) with a fort still in play is a Mandatory Assault but I can NOT assault if I am spent.

I only see that the initial landing unit(s) flip to D1 if they lose an assault or are interdicted to spent.

I did NOT see where this carries over to subsequent 'assault attempts' but I'm sure I missed something here.

SO, if I 'stop' my move now does the fort go away before my next play, or does the tank flip to D1 and ONLY if I land at least one more guy and successfully and AND win the attack on beach can I keep the tank from flipping....???

34 1/16/2026 12:58:00 PM Turn 1 German Player Message The multitude of choices is what makes the game worth playing. There is no standard play that is right for every situation ... you should let your plans for the rest of the day (and even tomorrow) influence your next move. If it were me ...
33 1/16/2026 12:52:00 PM Turn 1 Allies Player Message Teaching / learning mode.....

Very not sure which is better move(s)

Land tank on Juno and assault Gold after attempting to grab bridge.

Landing tank on Juno and going for 16 also after attempting the bridge grab.

Landing units (not sure which combo) on to Gold and IF able, assault the CA and then depending on that result trying some bridge grabs.

landing fewer units on Gold (no tank), attempt to kill the CA then on NEXT move land tank and attempt to go to 19 or into 16.

Again, TOO MANY CHOICES for my little brain...

I really not sure which one is BEST - I know which one(s) are LESS LIKELY but also offer BIGGER reward....

I'll puzzle this over and make my choice(s) then when done with this turn you an advise me on WWDD????

31 1/16/2026 12:46:00 PM Turn 1 Allies Player Message Is your guy staying in Sword or going to Caen?
30 1/16/2026 12:42:00 PM Turn 1 German Player Message You came out of that well. Like I said, the Landing rolls are the most important.

Voluntary retreat from Omaha of both infantry units. CA is D1.

Looking grim for Allies but the Landing rolls are far more important than the bombardments.

RE: "WHO is lead in Omaha?"

Point of order I do not have to decide until I've seen the results of your interdiction. You are facing pretty stiff CA fire and its effects will determine how conservative I play the PDs on BOTH Omaha & Sword.
