I missed a walkin in N. Africa if you don’t mind. And I had 6 infantry left over from last turn’s purchase since the stupid neutral axis combat somehow tricked triplea into thinking that London was taken last turn. I edited 6 infantry in last turn, placed them this turn, and then edited them back out.

And you can do stuff with Germany, but I’m fine with that. You can only do so many things and I think I am willing to accept whatever you come up with. Although the final verdict on that won’t be in until Germany actually does something nasty to me next turn.

[seth4god]

You’re getting pressure from multiple directions and you can only do so much.

TripleA Turn Summary for game: World War II Global 1940 2nd Edition, version: 3.7

British creates battle in territory United Kingdom
            Battle in United Kingdom
                British attack with 5 aaGuns, 1 airfield, 1 factory_major, 3 fighters, 1 harbour and 6 infantry
                Neutral_Axis defend with 2 infantry
                British win with 5 aaGuns, 3 fighters and 6 infantry remaining. Battle score for attacker is 6
                Casualties for Neutral_Axis: 2 infantry

I made the French into neutral axis instead of neutral allies on accident while I was trying to cut some time on my turn because I’m somewhat lazy. Anywho that created a battle on UK’s turn which locked in the infantry from being moved and also somehow prevented me placing anything in London. So I just added 6 inf to Norway last turn instead of editing out 6inf and then adding six inf to Norway before adding dudes to London.

But I still had 6 inf in my purchase pool for this turn. So I placed them down this turn and then edited back out as 6inf were placed down last turn. You can check my purchases from last turn and this turn and everything adds up.

going for broke!  intercept norway?

[seth4god]

yea, send em all up!

[boldfresh]

yeah you shot him down, didn’t disable the airbase.

[boldfresh]

about 80 percent or better to disable it i would say, and it fails.  not my dice this game that’s for sure.

[seth4god]

both of them or did the tac survive and you didn’t do enough damage?

[boldfresh]

let’s not waste any more time here.  it was really just a study for the neutral crush against cow and it helped sharpen the sword.  dice whittled me down, but bottom line, you did better than cow for sure.  i need to get back to some games that have long been stalled out and have very patient players waiting.  see you next league year, that’s gonna be the year i actually try to put together a great record!  ;-)

[seth4god]

I think I got some good dice in this game BECAUSE you wanted to prepare for Cow and Cowluck!  :wink:

Good game Bold, it was nice to play a different type of game. And I look forward to playing some more games against you in the future.

[boldfresh]

we each shot down a plane in the air battle and then your aa shot down my bomber which was guaranteed to disable the base if it hit.  i still have some last gasp attempts in this game, could still go at your fleet with all the german air and hope to get hella lucky… but i should get back to some long delayed games that started long before this one.

cheers
