One battle left, awaiting your scramble orders good sir!

[Jercules]

To be clear, I’m attacking with 2 subs, 2 fighters, and 2 tacs.

[Jercules]

One more thing: The purchases should read 1 sub, 1 dd, and 4 art. (not 6).

[BigBadBruce]

@Jercules:

SZ91 (it is my understanding that my subs get sneak shots, as per the old rules. If this has changed let me know, and we’ll roll a three for this if need be)

You are right. Since no Destroyers were present, Subs get a sneak shot and planes (Gibraltar in this case) can’t scramble.

[BigBadBruce]

Churchill orders brave spitfires to be grounded. A way more important battle is coming…

[Jercules]

He must think ‘spitfires’ are a type of barbeque :wink:

[BigBadBruce]

Cable to Hitler : As we agreed, we’re sending you Oil and Wheat… but we haven’t received any payment yet. Russia kindly reminds Germany that gold should be sent accordingly to our agreement. - Josef Stalin

(Note : I modified Germany IPC in hands, so it shows you now have 67IPC. Also I renamed game, we usually add a letter before nation’s name so all files are in turn’s order)
