I noticed recently in one of my World Maps that Ukraine, with a 14-stack army, has been fighting the same 1-stack anti-air army as a convoy (the 1-stack anti-air is a convoy) disembarking in the Turkish province of Khelvachuari for 8 days- and is losing. The Anti-Air convoy that is disembarking has not taken any casualties, while Ukraine's previously large army has taken 12,000 casualties and is left with 2 militia divisions... this is very, very odd.

purplepizza,
you, of all players, should know that convoyed troops are rather weak at disembarking.
i once reached k-d ratio of 25 to 1 defending the coastline...because I was fighting the landing troops not on my own land and the invasion stopped at landing (province rebelled under my feet and enemy was not at war with the nation that got it, so invasion came to halt , but I kept killing them )

oh wait... you mean the disembarking troops are winning with a minority? (message can be read both ways)
In that case something is indeed wrong...

Yes, this is what I mean. I see the double meaning.

I see the corrections Yes that is a very weird situation. Unless the Turks didnt bring their guns or ammo?

Not likely... they're Turks for goodness sake.

True...

I have reported that the disembarking anti-aircraft unit has finally died after 9 days and 14 thousand casualties on Ukraine's side.

I asked the devs. They said it was just a very sturdy AA gun...
12 Dec 2015, 01:24
LOL okay...
12 Dec 2015, 21:27
not true ofc
12 Dec 2015, 21:42
Good. That would be a little odd.
12 Dec 2015, 21:44
omg....did you believe me??? ROFL!
12 Dec 2015, 23:44
Yeah, I did. XD

Thanks for a good laugh then
Really, I am not always serious...
13 Dec 2015, 00:02
You just said it with such confidence. LOL

Ah, but that is one of my traits. I state everything with confidence, until someone is able to baffle me with counter-arguments which force me to change my view, because normally I think my stuff through thoroughly
But this situation - where a single AA kills 14k troops while it is disembarking - was so ridiculous, I would have thought it obvious that I was joking ... just a very sturdy AA ... lol
Nevertheless, in the old A&A board game, we had "Killer-Coasters". Transport ships with a air defense value of 1 (rollling a dice of 1 to 6) vs i.e. an attacking fighter with an attack of 3 or bomber of 4.
These typical 'easy prey transports' sometimes killed 1 fighter after another... and driving the attacker completely nuts!

Haha, I haven't played that, I shall check it out. But seriously, this thing was insane! I just learned to use Gyazo so I can't send any photos. Man, I wish I could have been more tech-savvy earlier!
13 Dec 2015, 00:54
Lol, I also just found out how to put pictures in my threads. But tech savvy? At a certain age one is just too old to become a good magician still. Same with becoming tech-savvy. I just make-do

Well, I'm thirteen, so...

So, YOU still have ample time and flexible brain space to become anything and to master anything you put your mind to...
