Pejon_88 (X) versus Farmboy (Allies +20), BM3/4

Pejon_88

Ok, so rationale for my decision was that I had one chance to push back the Allies after the Greece debacle. Realized that the only way to keep Spain was to kill everything in Turkey for the US. I was very lucky with my Italian pre-battle which neglected you two inf and one fig. With you having Turkey, Spain and for sure taking most likely Caucasus and Volgograd in a couple of turns I had to do it. What would you have done?

@pejon_88 it was a risky move, but it was a good one, and it paid off. Probably I would have played more conservatively, but I’m not sure that that would have been the right choice.

@farmboy Got a weird message when trying to post.

@pejon_88 triplea_37700_15rus-4.tsvg

Can you use this?

farmboy

@pejon_88 it looks like the problems are more generalized. But I can see the map so I can play from that.

Pejon_88

@farmboy Seems so yes. Tried posting in other game and same issue. You think we would be able to continue using the save file after issue has been fixed (has it been reported already that you know of?) or do we risk being stuck with some kind of corrupt, unusable file? As you can hear I am not experienced in these matters.

farmboy

@pejon_88 I think the problem is likely with the site not with the file so once the site gets fixed it should be fine. In the past, I’ve played games where we have had to share save files for a few rounds and then been able to move back to regular posting. Not sure if it has been reported but can check (and report)
