Don’t really see the path forward from here. Some bad dice but I think the losing move was letting you grab Gibraltar I1. Could have been prevented but I’m a bit rusty.
Will think if I have forgotten anything a bit before posting.
BM 23 Playoff Final Gamerman (L+4) vs Farmboy (X)
-
Champ game is gonna have to be top priority, it’s September and the crowds are anxious to see who the next king is!
When it’s my turn I should move on this before the others… I will try to comply with the 3 day rule.
Just didn’t want you to think I was going to take a week per move now. Hopefully my allies can come up with something.
-
@gamerman01 all good. Looking forward to the turn of course, but not in a rush. I probably will only have time to do Italy and maybe Germany before next week in any case.

@farmboy said in BM 23 Playoff Final Gamerman (L+4) vs Farmboy (X):
@gamerman01 I believe JDow realizes that and was just making a little joke
Yes, this :-)

Here’s the interim, after USA complete.
You got a big extra hit in the Pacific but I think I can still hang in there.
At least the AA shot missed - I HAD to fly a plane over it because 96% is absolutely unacceptable in that situation.

The post-turn glance, and I want to land 1 dare-devil fighter on Syria instead of safe TrJ

As tantalizing as a German fleet is, it is so important to get on top of Russia fast.
This is old school - buy as many ground first 3 rounds as you can, or Russia stuffs you.
Let’s see if I can remember how to deal with this - it’s been a long time! In other words, well played

I’m going to attack 113 and ask for a scramble -
You can tell me now or wait until I post entire Combat move - but just so you know it’s coming soon -
Actually, I’m ready…
-
Oh, and do you submerge the sub
-
And as strategically valuable the Russian sub can be, thanks for destroying it. It’s a pain figuring out US/UK fleet movements on Russia’s turn.

@gamerman01 full scramble and the sub fights.

Confused on my 2 computers - that was a local mode map so am re-doing the exact same thing I showed you, then rolling

Triple A regularly crashes on my desktop, so I normally don’t use it to make my moves…
