Jercules (Axis) vs. BigBadBruce (Allies)

[Jercules]

Alright, as much as I’d like to keep on going, I suppose you must make a decision. Take the hit on the carrier, or the dd?

[Jercules]

Ah, nevermind, the game is over after this allied turn anyhow. I will allocate the hit to your ac, since the planes cannot sink the sub anyway.

Congratulations, you’ve officially won. Good game, interesting to have a chance at an endgame in Europe for a change.

I hope you see I had decent reason to push it this far, and was not merely wasting your time.

I’m tempted to ask for an immediate rematch, but in reality I doubt I have the time. I have one other game going with Cmdr. Jennifer, who makes an interesting claim: the game is broken, and so long as the US goes 100% in the Pacific and London and Moscow 100% turtle, the allies cannot lose.

She now has my undivided attention, so we shall see. Take care.

@Jercules:

I see I should’ve specified what those 3 4’s were. Since I did not, we’ll say one hit was the BB, and so I lose a sub.

Actually it doesn’t matter. Since I have a DD, planes can hit subs.

Thank you.
I totally agree that you came very close to a win, I was stress to loose Egypt (and the game) up to 2 turns ago. But since last turn, I was pretty confident… but turnover was possible. So, don’t worry, I appreciate resilient gamers and this game wasn’t done until this turn.

I disagree with Cmdr. Jennifer claim.
In any case I wish you a good game to both of you. Anytime you want a rematch, contact me, I most certainly look forward a rematch.

Oh! I would llike to play axis and give Jennifer aonther chance to prove her point in a 1vs1 match. 8-)
