italy is strat bombing london with 3 bombers and 1 fighter escort, do you want to intercept? (6 fighters available)

[farmboy]

@zlefin no intercept in this case.

[farmboy]

Actually, if not too late before I make a decision, can you share the game map. It’s not likely but there is a chance that other moves might amend my decision

[zlefin]

done. I’ve also realized there was another move I could’ve made that would’ve been better.

[zlefin]

or at least possibly better; not that it really matters at this point. The alternative is a dicey move, and whether thats worthwhile depends on the extent to which i’m winning/losing which is hard to judge as the game seems pretty close.

[farmboy]

@zlefin I would generally say that you are allowed to reconsider until decisions are made or dice rolled. I’ll look at it now but if you do change your mind at this point, let me know

[farmboy]

@zlefin its normally a situation where I would intercept, but in this case I won’t. Will hope for the AA to come thorugh.

[zlefin]

yeah, I’ll switch to the other move, it’s dicey, and hence risky, but it makes the game more decisive. It’s a tough call, since if i’m winning I should play cuatious, whereas if i’m losing I should play for odds that improve my position.

[farmboy]

@zlefin well now I am very curious. I am probably around for about another 20 min if you need another decision and then it might be a few hours.

[zlefin]

its nothing all that amazing, just a straight hard dive at london.
