Summarizing (and cleaning up) results a bit. AP receives +1 for 1943 and US air/naval. I would really like us to stick to the convention that the first die roll is always the Offensives Player, it will keep us sane to be consistent. So that means: Battle A: Davao AP: 1, +1. Roll: 2, n/e JP: 50, 0. Roll: 1 = .25x = 13 = [19 LRB] eliminated (Sarong) Battle B: Ulithi AP: 4,+1. Roll: 1, n/e JP: 25, 0. Roll: 0 = 7 hits, n/e Battle C: Palau AP: 4,+1. Roll: 1, n/e JP: 32, 0. Roll: 7 = 1x = 32 hits, flips and eliminates 5AF LRB (in Biak) Battle D: Saipan AP: 4, +1. Roll: 8, n/e (needed natural 9 for a crit) JP: 31, 0. Roll: 1 = .25x = 8 = n/e Battle E: Ponape AP: 28,+1. Roll: 8 = 9 = 1x = 28 = eliminates [27 AF] JP: 5,0. Roll: 2, n/e Note that this means that JP kill the 5AF LRB (Biak) instead of the 13AF LRB (in Truk). And [27AF] in Ponape is eliminated. Bottom line: JP kill three air steps, AP kill one, and capture Ponape and Kusaie. 2 ASP, 2 Progress of war. I'll drop a new log file, too. |

After JP do their Reinforcements and Replacements, we'll do strategic warfare (submarines, 12.21), to determine whether JP draw 7 cards or 6 this turn. (7 because JP control 13/14 resources hexes, see 12.11). Since AP card draw is 7 and won't be modified this turn, I'll go ahead and draw AP cards (see 12.5). |
