@VictoryFirst Thanks for the game! I’ve never felt so desperate as the Germans until the final turns. It was not my intention to abandon St. Lo. The massive shift towards Caen was in desperation and the last turn’s reinforcements to St. Lo confirms for me that even a bad reinforcement roll for the Germans just doesn’t affect them anywhere near the same way as it does the Allies.
My only recommendation for the Allies is not to target the pair of AA guns up in Cherbourg first. Target the AA gun by itself up there first (and/or maybe another unit in the space with the lonely AA gun). Losing both bombers so early cost the Allies something like a “-6” loss in German units they would otherwise destroy.
I target the pair of AA guns with the bombers as well, but only after there are no other targets outside of Cherbourg.
Thanks for the game my friend!
