After making my combat move I wanted to change the buy, so I reloaded.  2nd time doing the combat moves quickly I forgot to fly a plane over the New Guinea sea zone to get the ANZAC transport…  Was planning to move a loaded carrier from 33 to 42 anyway, so I trust you allow…

[Ghostglider]

No problem with late combat.

[Ghostglider]

Interesting to throw 5 bmbs away instead of 3…  :roll:

[gamerman01]

I knew you didn’t see it coming.  It will be my pleasure to ravage the precious Russian tank and whatever fighters might survive attacking 99

There’s no way you’re attacking Greece now

[gamerman01]

Unless you’re letting 99 go, in which case it’s still very risky, but you and I both know you’re attacking 99 with everything.  You want to get your subs back in 97 ASAP

[Ghostglider]

Well - I do enjoy doing convoy damage in z97  8-)

[gamerman01]

Yes…. you’re kind of a convoy damage junkie

[Ghostglider]

In Greece - all miss in round 1  :-o
In round 2: I hit one - Please give casulty/OOL

[Ghostglider]

map included

[Ghostglider]

For easy reference: you have 2 Japan BMBs and 3 Germany BMBs - I attack with 2 US BMBs

[gamerman01]

I can’t believe you’re even trying this
Lose the Jap bombers first
Although I will probably only lose the one because you’re going to roll 2 1’s for me now

[gamerman01]

Agh - I must have missed your bedtime
What a cliffhanger

I also think it’s funny you (courteously) provided me with what I had in the territory and what you’re attacking with…. Do you really think I didn’t know?  :lol:  I just moved those 2 Japanese bombers there within the last day or so!  And if you can get more than 2 American bombers there, then I have really lost my senses  :wink:

I kid, I kid

[Ghostglider]

I know that your know…  :-D
In your post I can not see if you want to kill Jap or Ger bmbs first, so please report back again.
