2014 Championship – (4) Ghostglider(+21) v (2) Gamerman01(Axis)

[Ghostglider]

Attacking Greece was a winning move compared to attacking z99 - but it was a close call.
Average TUV Swing for the battle was +18, so you got a good result with the battle result of only +12  :wink:

Have you by the way noticed that difference is +500 now after UK16?

[gamerman01]

No, I just got here and haven’t downloaded the map yet.
That will change after I get India, won’t it?  :-)

You’re in command of the Allies - they do whatever you want  :-)  They have been executing your orders very well most of the time!

But those meddling Americans have 1033…  :x

[gamerman01]

So much going on I almost forgot….
I edited the sub from beside Scotland, to 109 at the beginning of noncombat when I remembered the naval base on Gibraltar isn’t working.  If you disallow that, it’s no big deal to me - return it to where I had originally moved it if you want (west of Scotland).

[gamerman01]

Oh, and you don’t have enough subs in 93 - better add more

Russia is now next to Berlin…

[gamerman01]

What, one man?
You’d better look for those small victories where you can, because the Allies are going to lose

[gamerman01]

Oh…… gonna land a lot of Allied air on Slovakia…

OK, yes the Russians are next to Berlin and could be staying awhile.
Yikes, I never thought about reinforcement by Allied air.  Strange

[gamerman01]

It’s still a death trap

[Ghostglider]

Aye, but what a nice way to go down!

[Soulblighter]

It ain’t over till the fat lady sings.

[gamerman01]

@Ghostglider:

Aye, but what a nice way to go down!

Can’t believe I totally disregarded Allied air reinforcing.  I’m just glad you didn’t move into Romania  :-P
