Canuck12 (Axis) vs. Gargantua (Allies +12) G40 WITH TECH!

[Gargantua]

@Canuck12:

Hmm. Didn’t see that business off of Hawaii.

Touch�.

Again some good but also poor play on my part, what I should have done is move up the acc/dst with an American fighter on it next to the Anzac one.

Then the Anzac fighters could strafe, with one landing on the carrier and the other on Guam, and of course - if I lost one, I would still have 2 fgts on the carrier.

Lucky for me, the destroyer missed, or I would have been at substantially more risk.  It all worked out in the end. Lol we are so rusty…

Anyways - looking fwd to your post tomorrow.

As for Mr. Bear - he is doing incredible!  The tumor was the size of a baseball… and is 99% removed.  Now he’s on to radiation therapy over the next 5 weeks.  Fortunately he is staying in Pullman with a veterinary student (4th year) who is doing her next rotation into oncology, and will be Mr. Bear’s healthcare provider.  Her husband is also a Neuro Biologist - which of course is also good news for Bear.

So in short he is living mile down the road from the hospital (which is one of the best in the world), staying in a home with other animals, surrounded by rolling green hills (right out of a fairy tale), with a white picket fence.

He’s become a case study down there, and is very popular with the students!  Just recovery is what is in order now.

I’m Looking forward to picking him back up when this is all over.

[Canuck12]

Glad to hear he’s on the mend. Sounds like he’s in very good hands.

Hmmm.

These little submarine blockades are becoming very irritating…

[Gargantua]

That’s with bad dice for the allies… :(

[Gargantua]

Bah - I won’t complain!

[Gargantua]

Hmm… the German dice weren’t all that impressive either!

[Canuck12]

Where did you see bad dice?

Also, one tiny edit: German fighter lands in Southern Italy, not on Italian Carrier.

I missed that edit as I posted right away.  Just do it on the Japanese Turn.

[Canuck12]

No prob.

I’m dying to see what US/UK/France have cooked up for me but I don’t think I’ll be able to get Japan out tonight. I’ll be thinkin about it though, thanks for the quick post!

[Gargantua]

LOL…

I bet you want to know…  Tell you what it’s all about “after”.

[Gargantua]

Oh - and I hope you’re feeling better?

[Canuck12]

Yeah, finally. It always fucking rains in Brittany, its incredible.

… Though I would be feeling even better if I had India…

[Gargantua]

It’s really too bad you had to build infantry in Paris.

I was kind of looking forward to scooping Normandy from you, and holding it without contest. :S

Next time… ;)

[Gargantua]

I can’t wait for my next move… I was thinking about it all night.

[Canuck12]

Indeed. But don’t worry. There is still plenty for the taking.

I’m very curious. But not worried.

That is, unless you score long range aircraft by some freak of fucking nature….
