L13 G40 PGMatt (axis) vs Gamerman (allies +10) +tech game 1

[Seador]

I’ll need scramble / dogfight for UK or z110 please.

[gamerman01]

One minute

[gamerman01]

French fighter stays on the ground to watch the fireworks

I didn’t see until France’s turn that Germany could take London on G2
If I had moved the fighter and cruiser away like I was about to, you probably would have taken it without too many losses.

You were probably wise to forgo it, as it is now.

Looking forward to continuing

[gamerman01]

Oh, jeez, and I’m not used to my opponents actually rolling for tech!  That could have been disastrous.
Dodged a bullet there

[gamerman01]

Ah, 6 new transports…
This will be interesting

@Gamerman01:

Ah, 6 new transports…
This will be interesting

I missed your bomber in iceland, so really glad I bought a DD.  This is a philosophical purchase, I’m very curious to see how it plays out.

[gamerman01]

You’re supposed to conduct SBR’s first
Then amphibious
Then all others

noted.  Unless it has an impact on game play, I’ll probably continue to pick my battles by signifigance / interest / whim unless it really offends you.  In which case, that becomes a factor of psycological warfare that I shall ruthlessly exploit to through you off your game.  :evil:

On a technical note, wouldn’t there be potential sea zone battles before the amphibious phase?

[gamerman01]

:-)

Yes, it often matters
I’ll be watching you!  :-)

Yes, necessary sea battles are done right before their amphibious assaults.  That’s not part of the “all others”

Not sure what you mean by this - you do have 3 planes.  Did you mean you should have had 3 fighters?
