15L G40 Wittman (+21) v Gamerman01 (Axis)

[gamerman01]

It’s a LOT worse in my other game - he boldly stacked the Carolines early and I attacked it and did not get good luck.  He also hit 4/4 with infantry against aircraft on J2 in China.  But don’t worry, he will not be successful - Germany is an unstoppable beast and Italy has half of Northern Africa and Gibraltar, so he has bigger problems in Europe than you do.

@wittmann:

I will swap the TT for Inf and Mech.

OK - it’s a good idea to post your combat move after you make a purchase change, to clearly establish that you made the change before rolling dice.
I could check your dice time stamp, but it’s nice if I don’t have to….

Curious why you move units one zone at a time?  Harder to follow…

[Witt]

I would never change a purchase after rolling dice. I am an honourable man. My word counts.

Not sure what you mean by a zone at a time, unless you mean not moving all the move in one go. I think it is because I am using too small a screen. I have bad eyesight and would rather have a bigger resolution (it that is the term). That is why I sometines non combat units in Combat Move (illegally), in case I forget later. Playing on a screen in not the same as playing on a board. I am very forgiving of others’ mistakes, but do not expect the same of my opponents unless we are good friends. People know I don’t cheat.
I am trying not to do non combat movement in Combat Phase  with you, as this is League and you are the Rules Deputy!

[gamerman01]

Yeah, no need to be defensive, I trust you, I’m just giving you a tip that conveniently makes it clear that you are changing the purchase before you roll - I do it every time

Didn’t mean to come across defensive. I think you know me. Sorry to overdo it.
Am tired and have a cold and will probably be awoken in 6 hours by my daughter.

Incidentally, I meant to commend you on your  agressive (and great) play. I have had to pull back everywhere. And it is only T5 or 6 (?) . Have never felt so pressured before. I am out of my depth, playing you.

Mech: really? I expected a DD. Interesting.
Russia is now your goal. Easy money for Germany; will take your income ahead of mine and so far you are costing me more, as it is.

Can do my go. But am tired.

[Witt]

Ok, she will be awake in 5 hours. Shit, it is after one! I  had a very busy night at the restaurant. Wine and peanuts now.

I even had this written in my notes and I forgot until I was posting the move.  I meant to sink the transport in 99 with a fighter going from Rome to Rostov, but didn’t see it during combat movement I had so much going on….

If you allow…

[Witt]

Of course. I noticed Itsly did not, so guessed was Germany was  instead.
I did ask myself afterwards, why I felt I had to tske Greece. Was something to do with safeguarding my 98 fleet, but afterwards thought thst was unnecessary anyway. Was replacing it as you saw, but then realised I did not have an inf for the new TT!
Probsbly a mistake and a waste of my only TT.
My UK problems go back to not having one single Ft on England 3 turns back. Infuriating!
I hope you get a good night’s sleep.

@wittmann:

I hope you get a good night’s sleep.

I did, and actually got about 7 hours!  Thanks!

[gamerman01]

Did you want to move your Russian AA in China?  Wondered if you forgot it - it’s easy to do when a piece is not where it normally is.  Looks like you maybe have a Yunnan stack that you were planning to protect with it.

I’ve been playing a huge Japan move and then a Germany move, so am tired of playing this game tonight anyway, so I can wait.

[Witt]

Thanks for asking. Yes, I did plan to do so.
I thought I had. I did mean to put it with the 12 Inf and FT, by Yunnan. I thought yiur German Bomber might attack it, so I think I left one Chinese Inf with it last turn.
