Guess that crazy blitz through the Ardennes didn’t work right for Germany this time.

What did Italy do with all the money?

[The Dessert Fox]

Not their turn yet its still in progrees can’t tell my strat in case calvin views this thread.

[Blitchga]

wow that is terrible… remind me to never play calvin as I tend to have bad luck

1 tac bomber is minimum for an G1 attack on france.

Yes, Italy took france, but Germany lost too much ground forces and misses 17 french IPC’s.

Not really. He transported an inf and tank from Albania to North Italy and then moved them to France, which is illegal. Thus, I redoed the battle without the inf and tank, and am awaiting his decision on whether to continue

[marechallannes]

Scary move! :-P

Let’s reroll the battle without those “offload-blitzers”.

If you keep France you win the game in turn 1.

MUHAHHAHAHA

[Pelanderfunk]

I have not yet taken France without at least three planes.

I did not realise this and I will re-do the battle.

I already redid the first round. Feel free to use your 2 transports to invade other areas if you wish
