    :evil:


  • Very unlucky, Cred. Just 3 hits is awful.

    @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:


  • 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:

  • 2024 '22 '19 '17 '15

    “Blimey” ??

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


  • 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.


  • 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.


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

  • 2024 '22 '19 '17 '15

    Eh…  :|

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

    :mrgreen:


  • 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.

  • 2024 '22 '19 '17 '15

    I heard there was a French Attack?  :?

  • 2024 '22 '19 '17 '15

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

  • 2024 '22 '19 '17 '15

    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?


  • 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.

    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

    Also Wittmann told me, France was going to attack SZ111.

    It came across like that he got that info from one of you… whats with that? Hence my post above, declaring my defense choice…


  • @Elrood:

    Marvellous.

    On SZ111 I hadn’t even considered that but might be an idea. I’ll let Adam decide on that versus the other option with that cruiser.
