For the first time as I can recall your move was as predictable as insert something taken for granted.

I need to decide now what sacrifices I am willing to take to reduce your odds on Moscow. At the moment I do not think that retreating is an option, do you? ;-)

In the meantime: Congratz for reaching the 1/4 final!

@JDOW:

For the first time as I can recall your move was as predictable as insert something taken for granted. Y****es, taking Moscow is quite predictable :-)

I need to decide now what sacrifices I am willing to take to reduce your odds on Moscow. At the moment I do not think that retreating is an option, do you? ;-) I wouldn’t retreat.

In the meantime: Congratz for reaching the 1/4 final! I even don’t wanna think about next games. For now I wanna take the football uniform on and just bawl.

[JDOW]

“Yes, taking Moscow is quite predictable”

Sure, but you haven’t shown that much dedication in the early turns:D

[JDOW]

Don’t get me wrong please, my predictability statement was rather meaning that you are unpredictable usually and for one time I wished you’d not make what I expected. But your AA buy with Italy already announced that you are not plan to leave any German plane at Rome.

[JDOW]

“I wouldn’t retreat”

Agree!

[JDOW]

will move tomorrow.

[axis-dominion]

@JDOW:

will move tomorrow.

demoting to snail speed now

[Me1945]

No problem

[JDOW]

I studied the map and need to finalize details. e.g. how to deal with the annoying German transports at Iceland and how to position the Chinese.

I guess I have it by tomorrow.

[JDOW]

Mhhhh, I am struggling with that move. It is so hard to predict how the game will continue after the Moscow attack. I believe there is a significant range of outcomes that will result in a competetive game after the attack. Thus, it is hard for me to determine which risks to take e.g. with the Chinese  or how to play UK this turn.

I guess I played quite fast in the recent turns, to this one should be an exception.

[JDOW]

I am on it now.

I made a mistake during my USA buy, forgot there is no NB at Syria. I would like to change 2 inf against a sub, please let me know if you allow.

[Me1945]

Change is fine. Go ahead.
