1940.2 - Witt & PP Axis vs Colt & FMErwinRommel Allies (+25)

[FMErwinRommel]

My usual Friday watching granddaughter, so no turn today.  Finally realized that since my ftrs have no target and Ger can’t currently win attack on Iraq, that I can spare stationing interceptors in Egypt to make it too costly for Ger to bomb IC.  If the Ger would just stand up like men and be bombed.  Come out, come out wherever you are.

Doodlebugs are on their way to Egypt as I type ……

[FMErwinRommel]

Doodlebugs?  What are doodlebugs?  I see the Italians are making the long trek across Europe to the mideast.  Why don’t they sail across the Med instead?

Can I have a second DD off the Philippine’s (from SZ6), please?
Thank you Ed.
Enjoy your weekend.

[FMErwinRommel]

Certainly.  Will take my turn late this eve.  PP: just when I realized that I could afford to move ftrs from Iraq > Egypt for intercepting, you realized that you could build an IC in Cau.  I shouldn’t have put so many ftrs in Egypt, since I knew you would move art and AA from Stalin into the IC.  But I finally built up TBs to pair with ftrs, so they could attack at 4 like bombers.  I didn’t expect, or was hoping that you wouldn’t put mobile units in with the art and AA.  And the naval arms race picks up in the north sea.

[Private-Panic]

I had not wanted to build a factory in Caucs as it means more money repairing bomber damage each turn. But all those darn AA purchases meant that I had to do something!

Ugh, the first ANZ bombing raid was shot down over Cau.  No damage for Ger to repair this turn.  But wait until next turn.  Carpet bombing of reinforcing army in Cau succeeded but was costly, as the 5 AA hit 4 planes.  Had to keep those art from the front lines and stop the buildup of AA.  Italy finally getting ambitious and trying something newl

Yes. I saw your 6 US bombers in China. :-o

Forgot to say - did not scr into sz109 nor intercept in UK as I thought I had committed enough to each to make those unattractive options - but let me know if I got that wrong.
