Global 1940 Wittman and Private Panic vs Credulous and Elrood

[Elrood]

A man wonders what Japan will do next… and WHEN they will do it.

Valar morghulis.  :-)

[Credulous]

93 pages and first game of thrones reference. Disgraceful.

In answer to your PM I am on paternity leave part 2 (basically two weeks of annual leave) until 15th.

Today I am round at folks for some real life boardgameage, so may struggle to take my turn timely but have my laptop so will try at some point. It just might not be that timely.

@Credulous:

93 pages and first game of thrones reference. Disgraceful.

Oh. and I thought the whole pretext of Axis & Allies was a reference to GoT!  :lol:

[Elrood]

I think that’s the wrong word… I mean more like the back story, or frame story of A&A…  :-)

[Private-Panic]

I did Japan yesterday. Where is it? Has Leo deleted it in frustration at my ineptitude? :-o

I suppose I will have to do it a bloody gain!

[Private-Panic]

Golly gosh - I did do Japan yesterday - but you’ve done a whole round since then! There’s no rest for the wicked ….

[Private-Panic]

@Elrood:

Was an honest mistake. I hope you can see that.  :-(

All my mistakes are honest. Does that mean I can correct them all!!! :wink:

My first mistake was to team up with the bloody war-shy Germans. If they did not declare war G4 I will disown them as allies! :roll:

@wittmann:

        Politics - Germans
            Germans takes Political Action: Political Action Axis To War With Russians
                Germans succeeds on action: Political Action Axis To War With Russians: Changing Relationship for Germans and Russians from Neutrality to War

Thanks the Lord!

And didn’t my DD in sz46 do well!

[Witt]

Vat a vinger! Do your go and make the other side cry, for once.

Another round of fairly horrific dice rolling. I hate SZ46.

I didn’t put a destroyer in the Med as Seb’s submarine seems to be cancelling the Ita NO anyway. Is that correct?

[Elrood]

No its not enough!

1. Why didnt you use a sub against the german DD?  :cry:

2. Please put a DD to SZ92.

If need be I can build a DD to SZ110…
