Somebody smells a win

[JDOW]

Somebody needs to move!

The watching crowd wants action :D:P

[gamerman01]

Yeah, I should be moving today, sorry

[gamerman01]

Scramble to Z95?

[allweneedislove]

i cant believe you are taking sardinia.
the sardines are going to be pissed off.

no scramble

[gamerman01]

It’s my first time in a long time.  Should help me pressure Italy

Well, you could have scrambled and tried to save them!

[gamerman01]

NOW I get 4/4 ones  :x

[arathorn]

So, Allweneed is the best Japan player I’ve seen, and Gamerman is the best US player I’ve seen…
I just love watching you two go at it in the Pacific. But Gamerman is playing an amazing game in Europe - I am sure Allweneed is happy with the failed stack attack…

[gamerman01]

That’s high praise and thanks for the love, but yeah that Russian attack is killing me.  I can’t beat Allweneed when he’s got Japan and Germany both rolling

[arathorn]

That stack attack was a catch 22 situation - can’t do it and can’t not do it…
Had it succeeded, Europe would have fallen quickly. But Allweneed still has to take Moscow, and there is a lot of pressure from the West Front. I’m looking forward to the continuation.

Need casualty choice in Volgograd

[allweneedislove]

truck, toy bomber, fighter

[gamerman01]

I give up
Dice got me again.  Losing a very high percentage attack in India, then the debacle with the Russians, and now losing SIX UK units in Volgograd, and all 3 killing my chances of holding off the blitz for 8 cities - forget it, I’m not going to spend hours and hours on an uphill and most likely losing battle

Good game - it was the best of the 4

[allweneedislove]

thanks for a fun game as always.

the dice stung you big time in bryansk. up to that point you were playing an amazing europe game.

i know for league it only counts for best of 5, but you are a great opponent, and i would like to continue the series if you do aswell. if you are up for another game let me know.

[gamerman01]

@Gamerman01:

Casualties for Germans: 16 infantry
Casualties for Russians: 40 infantry

That’s what you call a dice disaster

I am interested in playing another because frankly, you’re the only one who’s made it tough on me (there are several good players I haven’t played yet)
And it will count on my rankings - and whoever loses, it will not count against for playoff determination….

I do need a short break - I’ll let you know when I’m ready.  It takes a lot of time and effort to play a strong game of G40

[JDOW]

Thanks a lot to both players. Was fun to watch and I learned a lot.
