@nikola1975 making an aggressive move again, using these trapped West Ukraine units while I have decent odds –
Got pretty lucky on round 1, so I am asking for OOL.
@Stucifer Hm, can’t open the game:
Error loading save game, saved version might not be compatible with current engine.
@Stucifer Anyway:
@nikola1975 Do you also have 2.5.x installed? Mine opens with 2.5 if I just try to open from the .tsvg instead of loading inside the 2.6 client

Kill infantry first.
Follow with artillery.
Then bomber, and then as the game suggests.
I have this version:

How did you send games before?
@nikola1975 I alternate using my laptop and my desktop. My laptop can post to forum but my desktop is still running windows 7 and gets a socket error (not sure if that’s related to Win7 or something else)
I followed your OOL and somehow snaked out a (Pyrrhic?) victory 😱

Not truly Pyrrhic I guess, considering the loss of German air force. That could be a game-defining battle.
@nikola1975 If you have trouble opening the save file for the completed turn, I can try it from my desktop.
my tripleA versions are
desktop - 2.6.14549
laptop - 2.6.14786
no reason those shouldn’t be compatible
I managed to open it now.
The battle was terrible. Shouldn’t have put those guys in the encirclement in the Ukraine, they did not have much more choice than to fight like they did.
@nikola1975 +5.33 is no joke. If I could play craps with such luck in Vegas I would certainly be banned from multiple casinos! 🤣
@Stucifer I am looking at something else as well. That Australian destroyer?
@nikola1975 It’s a pain in the ass. Legally keeps you from loading up your transports in that sea zone, although I realized you can move to the sea zones adjacent to pick up still so isn’t quite as mean as it would be in normal G40/BM where those troops would all be stuck on Carolines this round.
Well, if you declare war on UK/ANZAC this round. Which I figured you would…
@Stucifer Well, I don’t see that as fair.
Anyway, it does not work. I am loading the troops and moving transports. I guess it does not count if you moved there while we were at peace?
Might unload them in Australia now as well…
