@kilroynothere
Yes sir! I have never done one. A few feints, with a willingness to do it if the opportunity is good, but no opponent as given me the benefit of the doubt and left London weak.

[kilroynothere]

@mainah I’ve only done a few and each was because of not properly defending London by trying to do too much elsewhere in UK1. With the three tts and a saved BB. Really put UK, under some pressure to defend Scotland AND London. Great opening.

Hey @mainah Sorry for the delay. I’ve been swamped at work getting ready for a little vacation. I’m hopeful to get something to you today or tomorrow so you can plot your twisted Italian take-over of the world! I will be out of contact 9/20 - 27.

[mainah]

@kilroynothere
No rush at all. Enjoy your vacation!

[kilroynothere]

@mainah Hey there. Have not forgotten! I got back from vacation and in a really good way, got swamped. Might need to take more vacations so more work comes in! I did take a look at the game. Wow! what a great opening you have made. Going to take some careful moves ahead to thwart the Axis. I have time today/tonight so hopefully will get that to you bey end of the evening. Very sorry for the delay and, as always, I appreciate the patience.

[kilroynothere]

@mainah I’ve finally carved out time! And I love your opening even more as it really is making me dance to your beat. Good stuff.

@kilroynothere
I wouldnt say lucky. You deserved that battle.

For some reason I missed how much air you could send there.

[kilroynothere]

@mainah well, that is the FIRST time i have ever landed air in south america! This game and version makes some interesting things happen. Rather like it so far.

[mainah]

@kilroynothere
I have seen it once.
And I re-saw the possibility 3 days ago. Course, that was a bit too late.

[kilroynothere]

@mainah Ha! Yes, a bit late. I’ve done it too with the German navy leaving tts out in the open after a Sealion. Didn’t notice that UK had taken Ireland at some point… US bombers took my all navy out in one fell swoop. Just completely missed it.
