[JDOW]

Sir, I need to beg for a big edit and a small edit. I have to admit, I clicked to fast and forgot that the fighters cannot land. I would have certainly taken a fig away in round 2.

I needed 2 hits round 3 and would have had 16 instead of 17 attack.
I am totally aware that my request would  have “cheated” one attack in round 3.
The simple reason I ask is because this would have been my genuine decision ALL the times.

Thus: Do you allow that I add a DD in 97 instead of letting the fighter crash?

Totally ok, if you don’t. For that reason I would ask you to do the edit the destroyer back in 97 or to just proceed with the posted map because I did not dare to make the edit myself.

[JDOW]

Also I apologize for the Kiangsi edit. This simply happened because its late and this is a move that cannot be influence by the dice. Still I apologize again and you of course have the right to undo.

[-Pete]

I appreciate the genuine concern but of course I would be happy to allow it.

[JDOW]

Thanks a lot, much appreciated, do you make the edit or should I repost?

[-Pete]

[-Pete]

sigh too desperate to kill those fighters in french north africa by restoring vichy.

[-Pete]

btw I should have asked about your OOL in 97. my sub sunk your cruiser in the second round, but you can roll a 2 in the forum if you would have kept the dd instead.

[JDOW]

No, I tend to keep the cruiser in these situation. Good to go.

But help me out. Why would you have killed the African Figs by resorting Vichy? Morocco just stays blue then and Germans also dont have a shot at them?

[-Pete]

air doesn’t prevent territories going vichy in bm 2, only ground units like your inf and aa in s france. those 2 figs would have just been killed on france’s turn had I succeeded in restoring vichy.

[JDOW]

No, you are wrong, sorry:).

the air does not prevent Vichy to restore but the territory they are stays blue alone. I had this already in previous games and I don’t know about any update that changed that.

[JDOW]

ok I am wrong

[JDOW]

And I had no idea about that, kind of silly.

[JDOW]

So I revoked the right to complain about any dice. I wasn’t aware of the rules and dodged a HUGE bullet. Sorry about that.

[-Pete]

ahah no worries. It was a humungous gamble, but I would have sealioned you had it panned out.
