@Enno
ooo.
Got to look at the history a bit…
you have the advantage, it would be nice and educational to see if I can spot this…
found it -
though it is sketchy, hence why I didnt see it at first. Trying to play it out a few ways to find the least risky way, but so far, my choice is an 80% for a very important win, or a 98% win with a 1/3 chance of losing my fleet. And either way, its a full commit - if I try and fail, there is no coming back.
I am pretty sure I am going to go for it.
I have made way too many errors, I have no choice but to take the shot.
Unlikely you will give me a better one.
Going to let my head clear for a day, then work on finalizing the details and the purchases.
Either way - learned and relearned a bunch. Enjoying the game. It has taken off a lot of built up rust on my game skills.

Couldn’t wait. The Americans had to upgrade their clothing. The British Navy has been on a successful diet and has lost a few tonnes. Chinese are adapting to the western plains.
I’m going to play it through, but this might be the fail. Needed both Norway and the Battle in the Aegan to succeed, though Norway was far more important.
@mainah surprised you didn’t bring the UK bomber in the Med sea fight?
But yeah, you had a tough start of the game so far, and it doesn’t look very bright for the allies, although of course things might still be able to turn around.
Let me know if you want to continue. Heads up; until the end of Oct I have very limited time to play, but I’ll try to do a turn here and there if possible.
@Enno
No worries on the slow play. I would like to play on - giving up seems in bad taste, and the game is still enjoyable.
I will have to back and double check, but I seem to recall that without the bomber in Norway, your counter attack had a 50%ish success, and I do not have much to follow up with.
These two battles each had a 82-85% ish chance. But that meant there was only a 68-70% chance of both succeeding. If I had sent the bomber to attack the Italians it upped it to 92(I think) but you could have at least had a good strafe onto Norway, with the possibility of letting it go to round two if you suffered less than average casualties in the first round. As doing well in the med was going to be fruitless if I didn’t hold Norway, and as I had too poor of a position in the board in general, I felt that a 67% rate for a re-balanced European theatre was as good as I was going to get.
Don’t know why I ponder it out so well AFTER the mistakes build on top of one another, but such is life.
