[Major Major]

A sub shouldn’t block a transport moving in and bridging during non-com, right?

[Major Major]

I think it is a game glitch as it wont let me pick inf up off sumatra either.  I will edit.  If I’m wrong I will adjust my move before your turn.

Right

But I haven’t looked at your move yet - I’ll let you know  :-)

[gamerman01]

So I have to kick myself again
I knew I needed a blocker in 33 but when it came time I must have forgot
And once again at least it took you 3 spaces away from the Phillipines and off a naval base, but that’s small consolation

Goll-ee!! Kicking myself again
Nice move

OK, I’m using this one, but it’s named UK7 for some reason… You’re sure it’s the right file then?

[Major Major]

its the right one, I’m just slightly insane.
:wink:

[gamerman01]

OK!

Need a break from A&A’g… maybe tonight

[gamerman01]

Back in the saddle….
Don’t go away - maybe we can keep the US/China/UK turns from taking too many days  :lol:

[gamerman01]

Well, no battling for the USA
Might need a decision for the UK, though, let’s see…

You will be pleased to know you got a radar hit (rolled a 2) in India, and that I only scored 2 hits on 15 firepower (I guess that’s almost average)

but otherwise I’m having good luck in what few rolls I’ve made….  especially with getting shipyards with USA…

I need you to choose casualties in India

[Major Major]

AA, then standard, mech before art…

Yeah, I know you dont seem to believe it, but I have about a 10% chance in this game.  For what little it is worth and I know you’d disagree I know in my head that unless there is signifigant swing back this loss is from bad luck.  Stemming from I1 catastrophe, german debale in volgograd, followed by german failure in caucusus.  You have had some bad luck here or there but not game breaking like those.  I said I wouldn’t complain, but shipyards at the perfect time when my only real chance is in the pacific?  That nullified a lot of your bad luck.  It will be my second loss from severe bad luck early in 10 games so I shouldn’t complain too much, its just said to play a good opponent and lose from extreme luck.  But… …it isn’t over 'til it’s over.

[gamerman01]

I hear ya and I don’t disagree

Shipyards made up a lot for my 2 gaffes and the interesting thing is you didn’t mention your lack of tech

LRA for Japan, for example, would be a big problem

Game on, then!

[gamerman01]

@Gamerman01:

Shipyards made up a lot for my 2 gaffes and the interesting thing is you didn’t mention your lack of tech

Oops - re-reading this, I see this was a poor sentence.  The 2 thoughts in the same sentence are unrelated - guess I was rambling again

[Major Major]

You got my OOL, right?

[gamerman01]

Yep, and the India battle went swimmingly  :-)
