Good grief. Well that was some oversight. Thought the UK tank & inf in Alexandria had retreated to defend Egypt.

WOW that’s incredible, i got every hit in that battle… finally got some luck back
-
also, i’d like to keep my italian fig instead of the G one
-
@axis-dominion I concede. I have no doubt that someone with your abilities makes the most of this, and I certainly don’t have the capability to be anything other than a speed bump. Thanks for the game and good luck in the rest of the playoffs.
-
well i didn’t expect that! but if that’s how you feel, i totally understand. taranto if it succeeds can be a good thing for allies, but frankly i usually have good luck scrambling against it, and it really hurts the allies in that case. well gg in any case

I heard about this game recently because of pretty extreme dice
I can’t believe you scrambled against a 94%! Obviously you DO usually have good luck scrambling against it, you won’t scramble at 94% after you don’t :D

well i have had some bad results as well and am ok living with that kind of outcome if i have to. but i’ve had more good or decent enough results than bad ones wrt taranto, for some reason :)

@axis-dominion 😀 Works! And it continues!
