L18 BM3 Adam514 (Axis+3) vs farmboy (Allies) Game 3

[farmboy]

@JDOW:

ok, Germans at 80ish is a bit optimistic, you can annoy them a bit, they will lose Finland and depending on what the Russians do a it more.

Still, Norway alone with saccing the TTs is not enough to take Adams Axis down I am afraid :wink:

Yeah. The point in the game where it turned it against me was probably at the beginning when I agreed to play Adam.  :-D He sees the board so well. But the pressure makes for a lot of fun.

casualties?

[Adam514]

Max defense.

[farmboy]

I retreated and should have gone one more round. I’ll accept being stuck with it of course but how would you feel with a continuation by forum dice.

[Adam514]

Oh no worries, go ahead. It’s certainly legal if other battles haven’t been rolled, and even if they had I’d let you.

Just posted a game save. You should have 2 tacs and 5 figs. I have 2 figs, 2 damaged carriers and 6 bombers. Have to look up again how to do forum dice. Should be just a couple of minutes.

[farmboy]

practice run through

: dice 6:

[farmboy]

[farmboy]

: dice 6d6:

[farmboy]

I’ve done this before but all the instructions I can find quickly online I think are old. Or I’m just missing something. Will keep looking.
