Do you intercept from the UK? How?

triplea_38052_3ger combat.tsvg

[aequitas-et-veritas]

No interceptors, the boys on the ground with the heavy guns should do their job and duty just perfect.
Roll snake eyes please for my AA Guns.
Thank you.

[Martin]

Sorry, but I need to disappoint you, as this is against all odds! Strategic bombing in England with two bombers, and the AAA rolling two ones - this already happened against me a few games back, so this simply MUST NOT happen again!! :laughing:

[aequitas-et-veritas]

You have to declare WAR on Russia in order to move into Eastern Poland.

If you want to stay in E.Pola, then 5IPC’s will be removed from your treassury.
(T 5 PUs if not yet at war with Russia./ from the objective panel).

Or you do not want to declare WAR on Russia.
In that case, all of your German Units need to be elswhere except Russia and pre occupied russian territory by Italy.

If you should decide to keep the DOW, i may as well fix it for you right now and adjust the map and do my Go.

[Martin]

Now this is an unlucky situation. I just suffered from that same move myself in an OOB game and was not aware that this move is not allowed for under BM rules.

I will still not declare war with Germany and will amend the non-combat moves. Of course I wouldn’t have done the attack with Italy in the first place, but I guess I need to be punished for not knowing the rules well.

Sorry for the error!

[aequitas-et-veritas]

Hold on checking the map again right now.

[aequitas-et-veritas]

Hey Martin, adjust your Italian moves made towards russia if you wish, since they would have no effect on my Anzak turn and France turn.

[Martin]

It is fine - I will post the edit. Learned to hard way how not to lose two Italian tanks ;-)

[aequitas-et-veritas]

My offer still stands if you like.

[aequitas-et-veritas]

Will wait on your answer.

[Martin]

Thank you for your kind offer, and sorry for the mess!:face_with_rolling_eyes:

Let’s keep Italy as it is. Maybe it is a trap, LOL

[Martin]

I will be able to make my move with Japan only tomorrow evening.

[aequitas-et-veritas]

Loosing can openers and especially early game is allways bad.

[Martin]

If you insist, I will gladly accept your kind offer. You are right with ANZAC and France…

So Italy and Russia are peaceful buddies again :-)

[Martin]

Will you do this edit with Russia, or do you want me to do that as well?

[Martin]

The Russian tanks would then stay where they were at the beginning of the round - in Bessarabia
