Sorry guys, I was in Whistler for 2 days, got in late last night. Posting US….

UK?
Come on guys. Post or resign. Dragging this out doesn’t make you any more likely to win. Or even to draw…
How many pieces does the UK even have left to move?
At least we helped you out by eliminating the necessity to post of China. ;-)
After recieving typical “rush” talk from Japan this morning, I made an error I’m not sure how to resolve.
I built an AB with the explicit intent to land all of my fighters on cyprus this turn (8 ft) this was reviewed with my ally. But I miscounted the flight patterns of the 4 Egyptian fighters. which I threw at sudan thinking they could still make it to Cyprus. They are 1 short. The fgts were simply fluff for the attack since they had no other purpose this turn.
Of course the battle went typical for the game, only 1 hit for the allies despite the overwhelming force, and of course 100% defence by axis.
The appropriate thing to do is probably to reroll the battle minus the 4 fightrs? or continue the battle as if the 4 fgts were never there?
1/5 fighters being the hit, would be a a 1d5 @1
