12L AA50-41 JWW (10) v Gamerman01

[gamerman01]

With nearly 50/50 odds and 60 IPC’s which is the most UK could ever have after round 2, practically, I kind of had to try it.  Germany would have way over 100 IPC’s if successful on G2, so I had to try that.
It will fail, and then we’ll have a tight game.  :-P

So you’re not even going to let me take a single airplane from you…. so greedy  :wink:

if you take the UK the game is over. simple as that. perhaps my fgt’s can hit in defense?

Yes no doubt the party will be over now

Sealion is an abject failure.  My instincts said not to try it, but you have to in that situation.  Even a 1 round hit and run might have been effective if you had played it conservatively, but once again JWW gambles and wins (I recall a certain infantry attacking and taking out a fighter early in a game)
Now the UK will be storming like you wouldn’t believe and I’ll be hanging on for dear life for several rounds.  Sigh.

that wasn’t a gamble. it was an oversight, a mistake of sorts. I typically don’t leave such prices or territories to a 50/50 chance.

Hehe, thanks, that makes it worse  :lol:

But you misunderstood me.  I was only referring to the gamble of taking off infantry, artillery, tank before bombers.
I would have probably done the same.
