I have an odd request; can you edit out your US transport in 112? I took my turn before coffee and forgot to do it with one of my spare planes. I would’ve edited it myself but felt shady about it.

edits: i opted to take a tac bomber instead of a fighter as a casualty in Crete. Also, on UK’s turn i edited the two US transports to sz 112 cuz i opted to abandon the english channel. Lemme know if these edits present any problems.

Hmm, can’t load the save, the file might be corrupted. I reinstalled Java and I can load another game so I don’t think it’s on my end. Could you re-post the save? Thanks!

Hey regularkid,

I think I’m going to concede. I’ve lost the strategic initiative and I just don’t see a path to victory for me. GG! I’ll post the result

[regularkid]

gg bro. switch sides?

[TheShrike]

sure, wanna set it up? Also, being new to competitive play, can i ask you what i did wrong? I know I got diced on G1, but did I also make critical mistakes?

[regularkid]

you played japan pretty well (though my Allied play in the pacific could probably use some work). In the atlantic, i think your big mistake was letting me stack both Norway and Normandy so early. As a rule, one should either keep enough units in Normandy to hold it against USA (if USA only has 2 or 3 transports int he area), or keep enough units within striking distance to retake it (if the “wall” is not economically feasible cuz of number of US trannies/air). Also, you should make every reasonable effort to delay USA taking and holding Normandy for factory as long as possible. that’s all i got.

i’ll set up the game and link you.
