Global 1940 Wittman and Private Panic vs Credulous and Elrood

[Elrood]

We went for SZ110 Move. Hence I edited my Russian Sub to that Seazone.

[Witt]

Cred: would you check that there is a German Mech in West Germany and only one AA?
I wanted the other West German AA in France and one fewer Mech in Berlin (6 not 7).
I asked Seb, but he probably forgot when he flew  into a rage about something small and insignificant.
Have a good evening all.

Actually we went for SZ109 when we realised Elrood had got his Maths wrong….

I had pretty much finished my go as well, but I remembered a horrible incident when I relied on my team mate’s maths not so long ago…

Only one battle involved dice, and I got a worse result the second time (New Britain), so hopefully ok.

But i think giving Germany 60% would have been good. I read from an experienced player that Allies (UK / US) should bait Axis with 70% battles throughout the game…

1. If they lose one at 30% then they are pretty much done
2. even if they win they probably invested so much that east front suffers - Moscow holds that turn longer

I am not sure what you mean, Elrood. I recognise 91 could be attacked and I could even have lost, but I take that small risk. No battle  on the board is certain.
I did not want to lose my fleet, but accept it is a possibility. I recognise by investing in fleet, I have built a monster and it needs feeding (or hiding). The game is won in Rissia, ultimately. Bit I like a  Fleet for the threat it provides (although I have no TT now) and how it defends Wedtern Europe too. I won’t change!
