Redrum's and P@nther's battle thread

[Panther]

OK then let us switch the sides and start a new one.

It has been my first game of 42, 2nd edition, and I am curious on playing the Allies now.

After that I really would like to play the Axis again - just to try out something different from the first game (not to buy two carriers for instance).

But for now I’m preparing R1…
