Burma Road Secured!

The battered remnants of Mandalay's garrison surrender to the Japanese onslaught.
After months of artillery bombardment, the encircled Mandalay has finally fallen to Japan. Imperial troops have finally cut off Allied support to China once and for all.
Stalemate on Mindanao

Veteran cruiser Mikuma fires more shells onto the garrison of Davao, to no avail.
Aspirin is distributed at the Imperial General Staff HQ for the headaches the Americans are causing in the southern Phillippines. Our best ground and naval equipment has already been moved to India and Australia, under the assumption the surrounded Davao would fall easily.
However, after months and months, the brave (but stupid) Yankee troops there still hold on, fortified in the hills surrounding the port. By the time our ships can repair the damage from destroying a unit there, the Americans have already built replacements! Heavy bombers have been dispatched to the area.
Southern Task Force takes Guadalcanal!

Imperial Marines survey hundreds of dead Americans along Edson's Ridge.
Japanese troops have landed on Guadalcanal unimpeded, as the island's garrison was wiped out weeks ago by our bombers and naval guns. Henderson Air Force Base will be very useful in our upcoming operations against Australia.

The Japanese superman will rule the East soon enough!

You guys should really admire my victories, not think about how a sub shot down your bomber. German subs had some 4x2mm AA Guns too ....... so: STop wondering |
To quote Exile: Does ANYONE ever read the readme files?
Dude, offensive land and sea units are given the fighter flag in this scenario so that they can attack stacks of ground units which are covered by airplanes. This is because without the flags, such stacks are impossible to attack. Attacking single planes with non-fighter units is of course not allowed.
This was clearly described in the readme:
quote: Why can all units attack air units?
We noticed through some of the testing that stacks of bombers and tanks, especially in the late war years, were impossible to destroy with regular fighter planes. Because the air unit was on the same square as the other ground units, only a unit that was flagged with the can attack air flag was allowed to attack. By giving every unit in the game the same flag to attack air units, it solved the problem of invincible stacks. Now the downfall of course is that air units can be shot down by regular ground units. I have made a house rule, that only fighters can attack air units that are not stacked with another unit. That way, when bombers attack deep into the Reich, or German bombers attack deep into Russia, they must be shot down with fighters. |
Not to mention shouted in the civilopedia entries:

Darius, you should be careful with what you define as cheating. |
Well first off I'm not just brazenly declaring this; Steve, Pap, sas, and I all agreed to adding the fighter flags back in creation, and to have a house rule. Intentionally breaking a house rule is cheating; I don't know how it could be called anything else.

If he posts the game, you would consider it cheating. But if he reloads, his results will be different and he has been reloading and that technically also cheating. |
The problem with the example is that reloading isn't cheating. Apparently everyone here decided that's A-OK. So he can either reload the turn, or just post the file and say 'Btw (player), I accidentally shot down your plane with my sub, and didn't want to redo the turn. My bad, I'll be more careful from now on.' Problem solved.
And again, it's not just me considering intentional attacks cheating. The house rule is in the readme, and is a part of the scenario.
