15L G40 Playoff game Alexgreat (Allies +24) vs. Majikforce (Axis)

ships are fine. I really hope they have not been the reason for Italy not moving, as you moved an Italy in another game. Surely the Italian fighter doesnt feel suicidal ;)

[majikforce]

I was ready for italy to go last night but after the wife needed the computer and the lovely daylight savings time where we set the clocks ahead an hour it was way late!  Turn coming now.  Cheers!

Phew!  Almost rage quit right there!  Too many battles like that happening to me lately.  I lost a 99.99999% against my friend the other day it was brutal!  I forgot to move your siberian trooper, he’s probably frozen by now but ANZAC can move him. :-D

[lexgreat]

totally agree about you having tough luck. and then I look at my convoy rolls….not saying this is equally bad or equally important, but still.

Majik, for info, I am at a congress right now, and I likely have no internet next week until Saturday. I might manage tonight, but if not, apologies in advance, nothing I can do really.

[majikforce]

No worries Alex. Life always comes first. Get to it when you can. My Japan turn was rushed so it might give me time to look it over, but don’t wait for me if you can get to it tonight. Thanks for the heads up!

[lexgreat]

I am back and will move tomorrow, needt to think anew as I kind of forgot initial thoughts. Will try my best to move tomorrow Tuesday! Hope you had some fine days over Easter.

[majikforce]

Great!  Can’t wait.  Easter was awesome.  Hope yours was good too.
