Nice to have the extra DP. No doubt about initiative in 1941. I will spend 10 BRPs on ASW (limit of 11.7 rounded down to 11). |
319 | 2/5/2023 9:09:00 AM | Turn 6 | Axis | Message |
I looked at this again. By 35.3, involuntary BRP losses don't count toward calculating available BRPs. So your available BRPs for Britain will be 117 less SW expenditures. Your per-turn spending limit will be (117 - SW spends)/2. After those calcs are done, the 15 BRPs for loss of colonies are subtracted. ATR rules are sssooo complicated; I learn more every time I read them. So Britain gets 3 DPs in 1941 regardless of how much you spend on SW. |
318 | 2/4/2023 11:42:00 PM | Turn 6 | Allies | Message |
I think I need to build more than one ASW, so I will unfortunately have to give up the DP. |
317 | 2/4/2023 9:45:00 PM | Turn 6 | Axis | Message |
Before I allocate DPs, I need to know how many DPs Britain will have, which is determined as follows: British DRPs = 125 - 8 for year-end BRP deficit - 15 for lost colonies = 102. If you spend more than 2 BRPs for SW, your available BRPs will drop below 100, so Britain would have 2 DPs rather than 3 in 1941. (You lose one DP for Axis conquering Egypt.) Available BRPs are calculated before DPs are allocated. So please inform me of your 1941 SW expenditures before I proceed with calculating and allocating DPs. |

On to 1941 YSS. I will work up the first cut at it and will send you the logfile for you to add your input. |
315 | 2/4/2023 8:18:00 PM | Turn 6 | Axis | Message |
Britain also loses 5 BRPs for loss of Transjordan. So Britain BRPs at -8. |
314 | 2/4/2023 8:16:00 PM | Turn 6 | Axis | Message |
SW result DR7, so damage is 5*.5*3 = 7.5, rounds up to 8 BRPs lost. 2 subs survive to 1941. |

308 | 2/3/2023 4:08:00 PM | Turn 6 | Axis | Message |
A total of 4 AF (2 for each sea supply attempt) fly from Messina to FF21 and cut the routes. 2AF result in guaranteed damage, which for unescorted sea supply means supply is cut without a die roll. |
307 | 2/3/2023 4:01:00 PM | Turn 6 | Axis | Message |
Totally agree a reaction roll would not be a good plan for you this turn. |

British select attrition in the west and med. USSR passes. No base changes. Sending air staging and sea supply. |
305 | 2/3/2023 2:04:00 PM | Turn 6 | Allies | Message |
Looks like 90 ground factors on the eastern front, so reaction dice roll would be +2 DRM? If so, no point in rolling this turn. |

Correct. I may beef up the garrison further before your turn, so could change. |
295 | 1/30/2023 2:33:00 PM | Turn 6 | Allies | Message |
As of now, a USSR roll would be -2 (125 BRPs and Axis minors) and +3 (over 70 German ground factors on eastern front), for a net of +1? |
294 | 1/30/2023 2:22:00 PM | Turn 6 | Axis | Message |
Integration of these countries into German war effort results in a -1 DRM on the Russia diplo roll table. That entitles you to make a Russian reaction diplo roll at beginning of your coming turn if you wish. Your two DPs in Russia, plus my 1 DP and Italian covert point applied earlier this year, would be applied to a reaction roll should you make it. |
293 | 1/30/2023 2:14:00 PM | Turn 6 | Axis | Message |

No interception. Note that with US tensions at 24, you may if you wish start transferring 5 BRPs per turn from US to Britain. Happens during SR phase, so you could do it this turn. |

I can set up a line behind the Suez canal, so that only your armor can attack next turn. That would slow the Axis advance. |
233 | 1/24/2023 8:15:00 PM | Turn 4 | Allies | Message |
Indeed. Looks the British have to reinforce Egypt via south Africa while the Axis deploys so many aircraft in Sicily. I now see the need for a double line whenever there's an Axis panzer threat. It looks like much of the middle east will fall next turn, and that the Axis will have plenty of time and BRPs to smash the USSR. I think I have a better grasp of the game now. Thanks again for your patience. Maybe I should concede this game, and we can try again. Do you think the Allies can recover? |
232 | 1/24/2023 8:02:00 PM | Turn 4 | Axis | Message |
Final tally 9 FF sunk, 2 AF shot down. As you can see, had you gone with your original route, you would not have gotten through with even one ground unit. Tough to fight air power. |
231 | 1/24/2023 7:59:00 PM | Turn 4 | Axis | Message |
Lucky roll for the bad guys. Fleets have 2 DF, so DR5 = 0/1, 1 AF damaged. 9 attackers so DR11 = 5/6. 17-11=6 remaining FFs. No further air interception possible, so you have just enough FFs remaining to deliver the 3-4. The 4-5 is sunk. You can complete your SR. |
