I’m tired and messed up a lot of moves, but ultimately it was all legal stuff.

I dealt with your Atlantic Wall by knowing when to hold 'em, and knowing when to fold 'em…  :-D

intercept in london?

don’t worry about z106, i never hit when the chips are down like this.  :-P

[Stalingradski]

No intercept… you are relentless!  :-)

[boldfresh]

ok so there are three bombers.  two are going to the airfield and 1 is going to the IC.  tripleA rolls all three aa shots together, but it should roll them separately as 2 for the AB and 1 for the IC.

So, what we will do is say the first two dice from the left are for the AB and the last dice (furthest to the right) is for the IC.

[boldfresh]

and like i said, i threw away the destroyer even though i had about a 40% chance to sink your destroyer + 4 transports.  if i could ever get decent dice i could be dangerous.  at least no bombers were shot down.

:-(

[Stalingradski]

A great move, and it would have slowed me waaaay down. A stuoid mistake on my part, that you deserved to capitalize on.

i got other plans i deserve to capitalize on coming too…  but if the stuff that’s happened with the dice so far is any indication, they will fail miserably as well…  :|

[Stalingradski]

Please edit the French Cruiser to SZ106.

Have fun destroying the Allied Atlantic fleet. I’ll obviously scramble the Scottish fighter. Nice job setting yourself up.

I just hope it goes by odds… and I’m sure you do too.

[boldfresh]

i’ll be rolling it very soon if you can stay on - or do you just want me to give you max defense period?

[Stalingradski]

If you bring everything that can make it, I’ll assume you want to end up killing the transports, which is the real prize. I would.

So max defense, yes.

[boldfresh]

maybe this is where the dice will make up for my miserable failure in sydney

[Stalingradski]

If they do, I won’t complain… but I won’t like it.  :-D
