Tinydictator: First Blood (Axis)

[Pakitho]

Go time! Since you don’t have a dd, I’ll separate my subs from dds and your planes from your fighters (first the cheaper units) and run attackers before defenders.

wow, in that first round your luck was ridiculous! you had like 4 hits above average and I had one below average.

Yes, but I’m afraid this is all heading for an odds-evening lucky strike for you on the eastern front…  :|

I’ll do the ANZAC and French moves too, since they won’t affect Europe and I won’t be able to check back until later.

And the UK BB moves to Sz101 too.

That’s curtains for the Pacific - in any case, even with mutual annihilation in Hawaii it would take you forever to capture Sydney. Lets hope it’s not too late for Europe… One thing is for certain, every US IPC is going there now.
