G40 - Yoshi vs. Boldfresh - game 1 of 2

[Yoshi]

Not played enough games to be sure, but looks to me like dice does not give me a chance here. There has been a sequence in the Japan vs China / India that should just kill any japanese chance there…

But we’ll see, here to learn anyway.

By the way, busy time coming in the next weeks (moving to Austria at then end of the week for a conference, and I have a lot to prepare until then).

move at whatever pace you are comfortable with.  i am playing 5 league games right now, so if this one moves slowly it suits me just fine.

beginning my travelings today… will have internet access during the next week, but no clue about the week ends (except for sure that I will be less on the web than usual ;) )

[boldfresh]

i think i know what you want to lose in trj but since we are in no rush i may as well wait.  i forgot to do the walkin to soviet far east on this map - had it on previous maps.  almost decided to take a one round swing at belarus with 17 infantry and a bomber, just to see if i could roll some ones but decided against it.  :-)

[Yoshi]

yeah, basic ool there (inf, art, fgt).

From the dices, there is no order… hopefully the 4 was not the bmb, 2 hits looks enough to me :)

Well, that was a tough move ; hopefully I did not make any big mistake :)

[Yoshi]

btw, arrived in Austria, internet should not be a problem here, but my schedule (thus if I have time for A&A or not), I have no clue.

[boldfresh]

working on this now

[boldfresh]

ok yoshi - scramble in z6?

[boldfresh]

for whatever reason, i can’t get the text to post from tripleA - it just skips straight to combat sometimes when you click done with the combat movement phase.

since i am posting from my phone, i hope one of these files works for you to open?

[Yoshi]

No scramble, but I will try my luck with a kami on the DD in z19
