Europe 1940 v2 FMerwinrommel v Colt 45

[Colt45554]

I’m interested to see what you mean that im penny wise but pound foolish. And in regards to your sub that was off Scotland, did you bring it up to see if we could edit it to safety or just clarifying what happened?

[Colt45554]

Krieghund just informed you are right about being able to activate pro-neutral by moving two spaces. Sorry about that. Was the 2nd rule i brought up and was wrong again on it SMH.

Thanks for not sending the FRA fighter to ALG or keeping the Inf there.  The Luftwaffe wants to pay a visit.  I will need an OOL before first die roll since there’s no inf.  I will attack with at least the 4 bombers.  I will send you a message shortly.

i didnt see your fast response. hopefully my ncm is ok with you

[Colt45554]

but if you arent attacking scotland then it doesn’t matter if you’re using original map

[FMErwinRommel]

The French can have Scotland.  I accept your edit.  Regarding my prior post about GER sub move to SZ119, I was just lamenting my choice of location.

[FMErwinRommel]

OOL:  GER 4 bombers & 1 TB > ALG SB, TB, FI.  Hopfully all will be hit first round.  BEL: 2 TK & 4 ME > 1 aa, 2 in, 1 ar.  We had agreed to default IN first, but Triplea has AA default if present, then IN.  I prefer AA removed first.  Do you agree?

[Colt45554]

post manual gamesave so i can see everything, please

[FMErwinRommel]

Deciding builds.  Took long time to decide how to attack BEL & W. UK.  Want to destroy most units but not take the territories.  Don’t want to take them and have RUS counterattack and destroy my tanks and mech.

need OOL for ALG:  UK took 2 hits.  Can’t find way to save game or post it mid-combat.

[Colt45554]

No, you’re good with the first post then you just tell me like you did. Best defense for both battles so take AAA first in Bel

[FMErwinRommel]

Oops, I meant to retreat after first round.  Will you permit me to edit?  I lost track after posting and receiving OOL.

[Colt45554]

go for it

[Colt45554]

include dice statistics this round if you dont mind

[FMErwinRommel]

My air die rolls have been terrible each turn.  NOV GER 5 dice 17 HP > RUS 3 dice 12 HP, 2 hits each; round 2: GER 3 dice 10 HP> RUS 1 die 4 HP, GER no hits RUS 1 hit.  Same for round 3.  I put 5 air against both NOV and ALG even tho NOV had more defense HP.  But ALG more important to destroy.

[FMErwinRommel]

Thanks, okay for dice stats
