I need to wait for you to choose a loss for Z12.  If you lose the destroyer and both ships miss, the sub could sink your cruiser with a surprise strike.  But if you lose the destroyer and do get a hit on defense, then you will have a destroyer against a bomber instead of a cruiser against a bomber.  Let me know when you decide.  If you want to quit and start over because Moscow fell, that would be fine.  If you want to keep going, that is fine too.  (Germany will have 77 IPC’s at the end of her turn)

Hope you’re having a great weekend, Tex.
Map attached.

You need to redo at least part of that move.  Ships cannot pass through the Suez canal (from 34 to 15) unless your side controls both TrJ and Egypt.  So you can’t attack the battleship with the carrier.  You can fix this as you see fair.  You may attack the battleship again if you want, but you would have to re-roll.  You may keep the results from other battles.

[Tex]

well thats a bummer!!
Im gonna have to change some things then.

Combat moves-
tranport Infantry from Rho toTrj
2 infantry from Per to Trj

noncombat moves-

[Tex]

Did I get everything?

[gamerman01]

Looks good.  Note that when one side controls TrJ and the other controls Egy, then no one can go through the Suez.
You could have bombarded Norway with your battleship, and since you weren’t moving it anyway, you should have.  Just remember in the future!  Now you have 2 battleships to bombard with.
