UnknownSoldier (Axis) vs. Rasmustb (Allies+9)

[Rasmustb]

@UnknownSoldier:

I am hitting 112 with everything I can. I will just assume best defense since I want to sink the transports and must go through all the fleet to get to them.

Not seeing that the italians could “reoccupy” Denmark allowing the subs to participate in the battle was a huge blunder on my part! Fortunately the battle went very well for the allies - as I recall from the calculations I made…

Soo many things to keep track on in this game

Hi

Im sorry to interrupt the gamebut I have to ask if you are aware that I have a 93% chance to sink your entire japanese fleet. Just want to clear this before I do US 7 since this battle could be very decisive for the entire game…

cheers

[Rasmustb]

Oh and actually I´d like an additional NCM with the russians…. Its completely fine if you wont allow just thought Id bring it up before starting US 7…

NCM: inf moscow - smolensk

cheers

[UnknownSoldier]

Actually sir, I did not realize that the percentage was so high. I will look at what I was doing/thinking.

Of course the NCM can be allowed.

[Rasmustb]

Oki doke

[UnknownSoldier]

I see I had a MAJOR brainfart. I meant to land the planes in Kwangsi with the air base not FIC and move the other destroyer from sz6 to sz34 to block the rest of the fleet.

It was my mistake for clicking to fast. It is up to you sir if you want to allow those moves. It was my mistake and totally accept your decision. Thank you for pointing it out. If you do allow, our game will continue. If not, congrats to you on victory and on to game 2 if you like  :-)

[Rasmustb]

Sure - no problem whatsoever (I suspected that someone might had farted in your brain) :P

So just to be sure that we are on the same page:
2tb, 1fig in kwangsi instead of FIC and
1dd in sz34 instead of sz36

right?

[UnknownSoldier]

That is correct sir.

I blame gremlins for the farting  :-P

@UnknownSoldier:

I have never actually used them before

Well they didn’t hit anything but your sub managed to do the job…

Intercept in India?

[UnknownSoldier]

Launch both interceptors…use the tac as a casualty if your bomber hits

[Rasmustb]

You can only launch fighters, not tacticals… Wanna launch it?

[UnknownSoldier]

Oops, my bad…another aspect of the game I do not encounter often. Yes launch the alert fighter!
