:evil:

[Witt]

Very unlucky, Cred. Just 3 hits is awful.

[Elrood]

@wittmann:

Very unlucky, Cred. Just 3 hits is awful.

First questionable Jap non combat move, now you console the enemy. I think the poor German is will being left by his allies rather soon.  :oops:  :cry:

[Private-Panic]

Blimey! Terrible luck Cred. :-o

Then Egypt goes! :cry:

Seb - I think we will now need Japan’s help so do join us … please … :oops:

[Elrood]

“Blimey” ??

Leo just used that in whats app…
Never heard that before.  :?

[Witt]

Uou can’t use that word here: it was our secret. Now they know.

Talk about the kettle calling the WOP black: you have dementia too, PP; I am Japan, not Seb.

[Private-Panic]

Clearly it is infectious and I have spent far too much time with you Leo.

Blimey is a shortening of the medieval “God blind me” Seb. Good to know that we are educating you.

[Witt]

I wasn’t; apparently you are! I was leaving him in the dark about that cool and historic expletive.

[Elrood]

Eh…  :|

I thought you’d be glad helping me to climb the apples and pears to become a real master of the English…

:mrgreen:

[Witt]

I am. I was too busy with family, so my stand in got there first. I was annoyed I could not instruct you. Damn my Private!
Am about to looki at the mess you have caused those poor people over the other side of the hill.

[Elrood]

I heard there was a French Attack?  :?

[Elrood]

Anyways… the Sub will join the fight in case the French get cocky.

[Elrood]

PP: can you take over French (at least after Turn1).

There wont be many units for them, as Vichy was triggered… turning all African troops pro-axis.

France is too insignificant to justify having us wait for Cred to move them… Would you agree?

[Credulous]

Am happy with that. As long as the Frenchman in Syria moves into Trans Jordan and the French Cruiser moves to the optimal space to block your approach to Gibraltar I am comfortable with that.

Cred

[Elrood]

The Syrian inf will defect as well.

Only units available for French in FRE1 will be the London Inf + Fighter, the SZ110 Cruiser and and the SZ72 DD
