FMERommel (Axis) vs Desert Admiral (Allies+16)

[FMErwinRommel]

I used plenty of planes in Ukr and W. Ukr, because I needed blockers to survive.  But, since I had a bomber that couldn’t reach in the south, I gambled in Smol:  Bat Calc said I had good chance, but 4 vs 4 seemed like a gamble to me.  All mine missed and Rus rolled 3 of 4.  That hurt.  I should have used more troops and retreated after one round of dice.  Or just not attacked there.

Thanks for moving next to Mong and negating the Mong rule.  I kept the Jpn troops out of range to preserve them for counterattacking any Rus advance.

The Japanese took India and destroyed the Chi/Rus advance.  No bad dice for me this turn.  Had to maintain a solid homeland defense against a growing U.S. CV presence in Hawaii and W. Coast.  Japan has 81 PU, of which 5 came from India treasury.  Just wish there was a way to get planes to the Ger front.

Japanese continue to fight good.  They keep taking my units that I want to keep as blockers…

[FMErwinRommel]

Yes, the Jpn blockers rolled well.  And convoy dice were good to me, with Italy less damage last round and Brit max damage in UK.  But the Novg AA missed for the 5th time.

[FMErwinRommel]

I knew it.  My Italian bomber was shot down on its maiden bombing run.  It inflicted no damage and never will.  Meanwhile, the Brit bomber caused twice its value in damage and have never been hit in 5 bombing runs.  I didn’t want to risk the Italian bomber because I can’t afford to replace it, and the U.S. can afford to repair.  But the bomber wasn’t doing anything and it was only 1/6 chance of a hit. 
I didn’t ask you for an intercept because you only had 1 ftr and I escorted with a ftr.

[FMErwinRommel]

I will make a NCM edit to Ital sub sz109 > sz123 on Ger’s turn.

[Desert_Admiral]

Truly sorry.  Your bomber luck has been rotten against me.

Thanks for making the Italian edit.  Jpn makes lots of money, but can’t out produce U.S. and ANZ combined.  It will be to costly to replace the 3 tt’s that I negligently let the Fre DD sink.  I can’t afford tt’s and warships.
