Seth - you are killing me. Can I surrender? This game is going terrible. I just lost 2 fighters to your cruiser.  Crappy dice and you have me outgunned in every area. Want to flip sides?

[seth4god]

No problem man. I’ll take the axis. Do you want a bid? I think typical bid hovers around 5-6 worth of cash/units for the allies.

[seth4god]

BTW, good game.

[Erinmore]

i will take the bid, yes. you are too good.  Is it six extra IPC to start the game? Or is it 2 inf or a tank or something like that in the game?  Whichever, just let me know. My email remains Bolderbob@aol.com

[seth4god]

You get six dollars to spend or use as you see fit. You could get two infantry and put them in different theaters or a tank/sub. Or maybe get a mech or arty and save 2 dollars. Or you could dole out 6 dollars to one or more countries to use for the first buy. Just let me know what you’d like.

[Erinmore]

First choice would be a Chinese Tank in Yunnan.  Second choice would be upgrade Art and Mech in Egypt to Armor at 2 IPC each and art in India to Armor.  Third choice would be to add funds to Anzac and just start with an Aircraft Carrier as first build.  These all seem like dream options to get the max out of the dough.  But if it just needs to be a single item, can it be a UK Sub in SZ 97? Or if it needs to be an item in territory I control, a tank for UK in  Egypt.

[seth4god]

No chinese tanks. Other choices are good, so let me know which option you want.

[Erinmore]

my choice would be upgrade Art and Mech in Egypt to Armor at 2 IPC each and art in India to Armor. Thanks for the gear. Try not to kick my butt too fast.
