No attrition rolls except at the beginning of each turn (before the impulses begin). We will both roll after you finish this 3rd impulse and start turn 3. You'll most likely be in the Tobruk sector then as well but even if you weren't, you could still take a hit a hit in the Benghazi sector on a roll of 2-5. As far as garrisoning Benghazi, the only reason would be if you wanted to ship from Italy to Benghazi at some point. I have not see that done in the few games I've played but it is allowed - you have to purchase a shipping convoy (1 RP) in order to attempt that. Since we are using optional rules, I think the port is not usable unless there is a unit nearby (rule 27.4) |

Question if you please: is it wise or needed to garrison Benghazi? Don't recall any amphib landings in this game. |

since I don't have any units east of the Benghazi sector, doesn't look like I have to roll for supply attrition, correct? |

Well, both rolls are 1 even with the extra dice! Maybe the dice roller knows our scheme and messing with us:-) This one is an EX - I'll take the hit on your 544 armor. |

Request: 6-sided die x 2 6 4 Message from Allies: I did not realize that you did not place your delay markers last turn either. Hope it is okay for me to do your rolls for them. You roll 2 dice and a roll of 1 or 2 will remove the corresponding delay marker (a 1 and 2 would remove both). You can not move 1 that is already on the map but you can voluntarily remove it so that it will be available on the next turn (as I did on my previous turn). Each of us has 2 markers. Markers: Delay marker #1: H2616 Delay marker #2: H2718 |
| 38 | 4/24/2026 10:06:00 PM | Turn 1 | Allies | Message |
take the hit on the recon unit and the tank retreats to H2219. I believe you have to stop in H2116 as BT combat receives no additional advance. |

| 35 | 4/24/2026 9:41:00 PM | Turn 1 | Allies | Message |
Retreat to H2415. Yes, probably worth using Rommel here for the BT attack - I made a mistake leaving those others too close. At least you won't have Rommel for the next 2 impulses as he only gets refreshed at the beginning of a turn. |
| 34 | 4/24/2026 9:29:00 PM | Turn 1 | German | Message |
Think I found some answers - air support does not accompany the BT group - your stack goes D4 without any losses (drat!!); like you said, flak impacts only on EX or DRX |
| 33 | 4/24/2026 9:16:00 PM | Turn 1 | German | Message |
curious -- in Stalingrand 42, air supporting an attack that forms a Breakthru group can accompany the BT group for the next attack. Does that occur in NA 41? |
| 32 | 4/24/2026 9:12:00 PM | Turn 1 | German | Message |
so with the reroll, I reduce your armor by the flak and you go D4, right? no hit on my armor and I now have an advance 4, which gives a Breakthrough attack |

| 30 | 4/24/2026 9:02:00 PM | Turn 1 | Allies | Message |
You probably know this but the Flak has a "special power" in exchanges that allows you to take a second hit on my armor (my choice on that one). Therefore, the tank unit is eliminated That is why I often try to hit the flak units on exchanges but in this case, I'll go ahead and take the hit on one of your panzer tank units (they are the same so either one is fine). I will retreat along the track up to H2214. You can do your advance and complete the turn. Ps- I am good with the defense rolling the attack dice - I just have to remember to roll those "warm up dice"! |

Request: 6-sided die x 4 4 1 6 2 Message from German: was expecting you to roll, but realize you told me to roll on the 1st turn. Advantage of defender rolling is he can take a retreat or DD right after the roll. Anyway, attack @ 5-1 -- DR4 |
| 27 | 4/23/2026 11:46:00 PM | Turn 1 | Allies | Message |
I will use my HQ artillery to make it 5:1 so go ahead with the attack. |
| 26 | 4/23/2026 10:16:00 PM | Turn 1 | Allies | Message |
If you had a SP that you could have loaded last turn, go ahead and put in on the truck if you want. Hard to get used to some of these rules. |
| 25 | 4/23/2026 10:15:00 PM | Turn 1 | Allies | Message |
Another truck rule that I messed up in the past is rule 5.8.2 so take a look at that one as well. Basically says once you pick up a unit, it stays with the truck the rest of the move and cannot be dropped off. Also says that if you start with something in the truck, you can drop it off before you move but once you start the move, you're stuck with it the rest of that impulse. Hope I stated that correctly but take a look at that rule. |
| 24 | 4/23/2026 10:13:00 PM | Turn 1 | German | Message |
seems to me I should have loaded another supply point last turn |
| 23 | 4/23/2026 10:10:00 PM | Turn 1 | Allies | Message |
I wasn't sure but looking at rule 6.3.1 says: Units that enter an Off Map Box during the movement phase must stop and may not exit until the following action impulse |
| 22 | 4/23/2026 10:05:00 PM | Turn 1 | German | Message |
on the trucks: OK, but can I motor back to Tripoli, pick up and then motor back on to the map without using the special truck movement? |
| 21 | 4/23/2026 9:58:00 PM | Turn 1 | Allies | Message |
No problem on the replacement. Yes, you can buy one this turn - you have air superiority until turn 7 I believe as well so my air is pretty limited for now. As for the special truck movement, it takes the entire turn's movement to return it to Tripoli so it will not be available until the next turn. |
| 20 | 4/23/2026 9:56:00 PM | Turn 1 | German | Message |
under special truck movement, can I pick it up from the map, move it to the Tripoli box, pick up a unit or supply and then move it back onto the map using full movement? |
| 19 | 4/23/2026 9:50:00 PM | Turn 1 | German | Message |
just noticed that I could also include a replacement points in my convoy; if OK, will add it in Tripoli Also, the air units in the marker display are all flipped to Used. If I wish, can I buy one for this turn? |
