Re: No Amphib Grps For Us
I've noticed that the US seems to get far fewer amphib groups than I would have thought they should. It takes a while to start getting them and then even longer before they start appearing regularly. By the time I've actually got enough to mount invasions, the chance of survival victory kicks in. The Japanese player also retains the ability to get groups until the end. I find the bombing victory pretty tricky to get simply because it's hard to pull together the necessary groups + repair the bases + defend them all in time. I found playing Japan easier.
Also, does Iwo Jima need something special to land invasions on? I've noticed invasions tend to break there often, with ships just showing up there, having no enemies at all, aircraft or navy, and then pressing surface, the board disappearing, and my amphib group gone with no invasion having happened.
The game is great fun though.
