L23 Harry X - Gamerman L+18 BM Playoff

[gamerman01]

Hey elche,
You can’t blitz FIC because it’s a pro-Axis neutral (you took it back, so just for your future information). But if you want to claim it with a ground unit, go ahead and do that - it shouldn’t disrupt your NO. If you don’t say anything, I’ll proceed when ready

[gamerman01]

Never mind, I found in the notes that taking FIC does stop the +10 NO. Lucky for me.

[gamerman01]

China done, UK when I have time again

Not an easy one. Done!

[elche]

Thanks for info. I wanted to try out the bonus, You are right. I try to blitz because no unit in FIC but bonus is gone. But I didnt know isnt allowed to blitz :anguished:

[elche]

But I dont do.

For the same reason, you can’t blitz Algeria because it’s a pro-Axis neutral, so you’ll have to correct that.

I’ll go ahead and play Australia and France because your correction won’t have any bearing on my move except for the 2 infantry in Egypt. Depending on your edit, I may move them differently.

[gamerman01]

No, after studying it I see I need to wait for your correction. Thanks, and then I can play ANZAC :+1:

[elche]

Sorry for my really bad knowledge of the rules. I have correct it and Italy has only 20 ipcs.

[gamerman01]

Hey it’s no problem since you don’t argue about it and you even correct it yourself!

Will finish these turns now then, thanks a lot

[gamerman01]

[elche]

Scramble sz109 or intercept in UK ?

[gamerman01]

Nice move with the fleet - away from the board I was thinking the Russian sub was there, but wasn’t sure. Ouch.

Fighter stays on the ground

[elche]

Thank you. The russian sub is history. I like the damage from my bombing raid :blush:

Wow! More rebuilding ahead :astonished:

[gamerman01]

I have most of the move figured out, so will move as soon as I have time and energy to decide on the final allocation of units. I’m sorry I didn’t get the move out right away…

[elche]

No problem, we are not in hurry.
Your present is on the way since 07.02. But the man from post office tell me it will be 4-6 weeks you get it.

[gamerman01]

Thanks! And here’s a present for you!
