13L G40.2 Gamerman01 (Allies +9) vs. Jeff28 (Axis)

[gamerman01]

@Jeff28:

Yeah edit is the best way.

Thanks for answering my question!

[Jeff28]

Perhaps my reading comprehension skills need work, lol.

[Jeff28]

Can I fly over Mongolia now that it’s inactive?

[gamerman01]

@Jeff28:

Can I fly over Mongolia now that it’s inactive?

Nobody can fly over Mongolia.  You can’t fly over neutral territories.

[Jeff28]

So that’s the whole point of your attack right there.

[gamerman01]

@Jeff28:

So that’s the whole point of your attack right there.

No, that’s only part of it.  I don’t want Japan to be able to move ground units through Mongolia at will, either.

It ensures that North Russia is a bottleneck.

[gamerman01]

Eggman just did the same exact thing with Russia in the game we just started.  I asked him if he was copying me, or if he had arrived at the same conclusion as I had, independently.

Just interested to know if someone else made the same conclusion as me.

[Jeff28]

He probably copied it. The best form of flattery!

[Jeff28]

You realize it’s your turn right?

[gamerman01]

No, I didn’t.  I must have failed to click “mark unread” once, so it didn’t show up on my list…
It will be now…

[gamerman01]

OK, you’re next…

[Jeff28]

Always forget s america in 91

[gamerman01]

Well, so did I, when I was making combat moves…

I guess I was thinking the fighters could make it back to UK - or I was thinking I was going to lose most everything anyway…

u dodged a bullet in Alex at least… 40% chance you lose every single unit…

[Jeff28]

You cant expect to win 2 50-50s, I figured a couple air live and I get the middle east and egypt

[gamerman01]

@Jeff28:

You cant expect to win 2 50-50s, I figured a couple air live and I get the middle east and egypt

I wasn’t - I was hoping to at least reduce you to 3 fighters in Alex (median result) and achieve a wipeout in Z91 (it was like 60-30-10)

:-)  :-)

[gamerman01]

But 40% chance of taking out 6 German air in Alexandria - that’s a chance I had to take - might have been decisive - but anyway, dice were what they were - no extreme results, so we gotta be happy about that

Should be able to slip in the quick ANZ/Fra move here soon!
