R01-Ol' Blood&Guts (Axis) vs. Boldfresh (Allies+8)

[Guest]

@Boldfresh:

most anemic performance i’ve seen in a looooong time by the allies on J1.  going to be a tough one for them to battle out of.

Given the way you ran over me in the Pacific in past games, I need all the help I can get  8-)

[boldfresh]

<15% chance you kill that battleship without losing at least one fighter.  ouch.  facing a full strength Japan in 41…  fun fun fun

[boldfresh]

did you place any units on the map?

you didn’t, i’ll place em

you can choose your ONE casualty in libya before going with italy  :-o

i estimate that overall dice result in libya to almost off the charts.  if those rolls are reversed, i would have cleared libya losing one inf.  what a way to start.  :-(

that round was particularly stinging, coming off the heels of that near-perfect J1.  :-(  luckily you lost a couple fighters on G1, but overall i’m in big trouble.

[Guest]

I will lose a German infantry….I agree with you, that was a rough rough for the Brits

[Guest]

sorry about that, did not realize you were waiting on casualty choice…lose infantry before the bmr…maybe I get lucky  :wink:

[boldfresh]

you already got lucky, you need to get UNlucky.

i need another casualty choice, these dice are being very uncooperative to finishing my turn (unlike the UK turn, that was simple  :-P).

[Guest]
