13L G40 Boldfresh vs. hobo (allies +5)

[boldfresh]

hang on, have one edit

[boldfresh]

yeah, surprise, surprise - as i predicted the dice are turning hard.  that italian bomber getting shot down was about a 30 ipc swing at least - and more over the course of the game.  probably nothing is a bigger swing in this game than bombers going down to aa.

here’s my edit, forgot to move my 3 italians east.

cheers

[boldfresh]

awfully big battle coming up  :-P

[hobo]

That’s what you get for trying to bomb a rock  :-P

I should have taken gib with the usa and that totally changed my plans when I lost
