Alright, good to go. UK lost a couple planes on the offense - rough round. Italy got lucky in 97. Though I guess I can’t complain as luck was with me last round in 110.
Italy’s pretty rich. Haven’t seen an Italy this strong in OOB in a long time. :)

I ripped it off from Roscoe P. Coltraine of the Dukes of Hazzard
Will look at your tech roll later - gotta run
Heavy bombers only apply to strategic bombers, although Triple A changes the graphics for tac bombers as well. But tac bombers get no upgrade.
1 hit per plane max. It’s best of 2 dice. For SBR’s as well.

You can out-tech me at this point with G/J/I 'cause I can only really buy it with USA and Russia right now :-)

You’re right - that’s a “bit” of a tech roll :wink: 2 techs on 5 dice is only half of a roll, but it could be the start of one.
http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=29763.0
How about 4 techs on 10 dice, with USA getting 3 consecutive techs with 1 die?
Jeff is being victimized as well

Not sure how many attempts I’ve made on that one - not too many - I rarely buy 2 at a time, and I think you’re a crazy man for spending 10 on tech on R1 vs. Karl :-) Or that you really love getting techs! And fun is the name of the game.Surprised Karl is playing with tech after playing me a couple times.
I don’t understand all these players who play tech and then don’t buy any at all. (Karl, Allweneed, Jeff, to name a few) :-)
OK, time for the wicked US/UK combo!
Wait. Time for the wicked USA combo! :lol:

Aw, man! No graphics improvement for advanced artillery? That’s a major disappointment.

Karl and I are playing with tokens, not just straight tech. Â To me, that makes an early investment the best one so I did it with russia, and probably got the single tech I wanted most for them.
I like tech because it can make a rapid change to the strategy or standard play outs, but I hate tech games where you invest and invest and invest and get nothing. Â So, I prefer tokens. Â Mostly, I also like to limit any power to a couple techs per chart max too.
-
Tokens? That explains a lot. Is that even allowed in league play? Jenn probably didn’t specify.

Attacking Italian fleet and Japanese fleet right next to their capitals with maximum 3 plane scrambles and kamikazes, and invading true neutrals all at the same time??
Might be too aggressive. Depends on what the dice do.
-
Eh, probably should establish retreat routes.
I’m traveling through 17 and 18 to 6, and through 93 and 94 to 95. May need to edit, if the unthinkable happens and I have to retreat. I didn’t establish the different routes in TripleA, so I’m doing that now, before dice are thrown

Yeah, I remember that now that you say it.
They could have still allowed it in the rulebook without spending a penny! Just don’t produce the actual tokens - we could use something else for them! I mean, we don’t even have paper money any more
