AAAAGH!  Battlemap keeps crashing on me

[gamerman01]

Didn’t you have 51 coming into G4?  If so, you overspent by 1

[gamerman01]

As weird as it was, Finland was a median result - 3 infantry lost
Bad defense and bad offense offset  :-)

[Karl7]

yes, you’re right, change art to inf in Rom.

As for the NO, it was a tough choice between taking out the russian fleet or trying to block the convey. �Decided on the former as the UK could just take back the convoy.

As for G40 insight, you’re playing a little different as the allies, so can’t really say where the game is headed yet. �You blocked Italy which is good. �But we need to see what Japan can do before the game fully reveals itself, I think.

@Karl7:

OK, thanks for checking right away.

Not sure what I was planning with Finland - maybe backing up with UK.  But when the time came I didn’t want to.  I guess I figured if you nailed it you would have to move a lot of air from Russia to Norway and could possibly open up counterattack possibilities (doesn’t look like you did - covered yourself well).  3 traded for 7 wasn’t exactly a disaster for me though.  Good move on your part I think.

As for G40 insight, you’re playing a little different as the allies, so can’t really say where the game is headed yet.

I’m sure I am!  I haven’t watched anyone else and am just doing what I think is good  :-)

�You blocked Italy which is good.

I sure didn’t block Jim’s!

But we need to see what Japan can do before the game fully reveals itself, I think.

Words of wisdom.  Actually I think Japan is very, very tough to play these days.  Will be fun to see what happens.

Did anzac declare war on Japan?

[gamerman01]

@Karl7:

Did anzac declare war on Japan?

It’s automatic.  ANZ diplomacy is coupled with UK’s, and UK declared.

[Karl7]

ok

Crud.  I was thinking those 2 planes would have 2 movement left but they only have 1.  I wanted to move into Smo.

I hit and you missed and Nuk is worth 2 IPC’s.  So would you be OK with me cancelling that attack on Nuk altogether so I can land my planes in Russia or Smo?  If not, I guess I’ll be landing them in Ukraine and fortifying that which will probably deny Ukraine to you for a turn….

[Karl7]

no that’s fine.  I aMm generally very forgiving on these things

[gamerman01]

OK
For awhile there I wasn’t sure defending Ukraine would be such a bad thing, but I would rather defend Smo and keep you from advancing next to Russia on G5.  Let’s see if I can get all this noncom done here….

I thought that’s what your map and my map both had…  8 in West Germany… well, triple check it and proceed

[Karl7]

Never mind.  They are there.  Not sure what I was seeing.
