Not at ALL.  I will be posting slowly until jan 1 so no rush.

[lexgreat]

Once we saw G1 DOW, we fully expected J1 DOW. But that does not mean that there is nothing to discuss among us :)

Fun to see this and get first-hand experience with it.

[boldfresh]

Rock and roll baby!!  Attack attack attack.  Attack some more.

[boldfresh]

who is playing usa?  china?  anzac?  FRANCE???  :wink:

[lexgreat]

I play US. No fixed player for China and France. ANZAC by Me1945, me thinks.

Somehow I doubt you’d post slowly until January  :wink:

US likely to be posted on the 25th, late afternoon my time, maybe evening.

Have a quiet Christmas, all!

[boldfresh]

no doubt my posting will slow way down from tomorrow through Jan 1…  trust me.

very curious to see how the allies respond to the axis aggression…  got any previews for me?  :wink:

[lexgreat]

fire with fire?

Then again, I am the cautious type  8-)

[boldfresh]

Merry christmas.

Pls let me say that Me1945 has no access to the map and we reserve judgement about the loss in SZ 37 (I took fighter, but unclear if Me1945 wanted a tac) before ANAZC turn.
Has no possible influence on Italy, so I’d say Italy can go before that decision, should Bold be ready before we have confirmation re SZ 37.

Has no influence on UK non-combat, either would land in Burma.

[Me1945]

Sz37 is fine. Waiting for Italy.
