Damn!  Finally had a chance to look at the map… ever get that feeling you are falling into a trap?  I continue to be intrigued by your opening moves and do not know exactly what the US is up to… that is really a good thing. I like the moves.

BTW,  Noticed that the US ftr from guam cannot reach Hawaii.

I’ll go ahead and do Italy’s turn  here shortly. Just let me know what you wish to do with the fighter and I’ll change that.

[wheatbeer]

Sorry about that.  I guess I’ll fly it to wake island.

The US move gives me some flexibility, but I dunno if I’ll come to regret buying a naval base or not.

Looking forward to your moves too.  Think you’ve demonstrated that a committed sealion can’t fail.  Even if I’d abandoned the Mediterranean with every plane intact, I doubt England could handle 11 transports, scottish landing, + airforce.  Plus that many transports makes Germany a wild card.

[kilroynothere]

No worries. It is very difficult to play all the allies i think. That’s all I’ve played to date so I know.

I actually like the naval base. I don’t know which way your are going. That makes you in control of the next move basically. Good stuff.

I’m currently having some computer issues. I have to jack into my windows server at work to run abattlemap and something has gone wrong with my connection. I’m on a mac, and I love it, but sometimes….

So, may not get a move in until tomorrow when I can get into the office at some point to figure it out.

Sorry for the delay.

[wheatbeer]

No rush  :-)

[kilroynothere]

OK, got everything up and running again at the office.

[wheatbeer]

dang, that little fleet got slammed

France has no moves, so you can skip to Germany

[kilroynothere]

Yeah, I got lucky on the dice. You had perfect odds…. I expected 2/3 rounds and 3 hits. Still a win, but slightly more painful.

You really didn’t leave me much of a choice. Pinned me into a corner. I always think if you dictate what the other side HAS to do, you are in a good place. Italy hardly has a fleet or an airforce now, so not sure what is next for them.

We shall see. Might be able to get Germany done tonight. If not tonight, tomorrow.
