Italy should have lost 13 to convoy disruption last turn, not 8 (-8 in z97, -1 in z99, -4 in z98). They should have 15 IPC, not 20. I will adjust on the map.

Figures. I agonized over that one and lost on the gamble. Might have been OK to try that against Japan, but Germany’s got major horseshoes on D. :roll: :wink: Well, my chances of holding Moscow just took a hit… :cry: smo cleared, not taken wlo 1 rtl, 1 tac.

ha HA! horseshoes my arse! That was a well prepared position you attacked, my friend! Whermacht grond forces surrounding moscow were alerted to the posibility of an artillary barrage supported by straeffing aircraft. Now as the fall of 1946 approaches, whermacht forces will descend on the Russian Capitol where the future of the free world will be decided. (funny how the future of the free world will be decided by the outcome of an epic battle between fascists and commies! :lol:)
good thing this ones on dicey or we would both probably require carpel tunneling. In a face to face game it would be a contest of endurance, who could physically withstand the rigors of throwing that many dice in one engagement!

Now, Russia needs some help from Dicey… :|
Wow! I have to step aside for a while and the world turns even more upside down than before. More travel this week, so go Anchovy!
M7574 let’s Powow before you move Italy.
War concil meets to discuss the battle to save the Reich…… Turns coming tues night or wed. hong onto your seats…
How is the Axis war conference going? A lot of new arms contractors attending? :wink:
Not sure what happened to m7574, at this point Japan is out of the game, so I’m turning control of the remaining Japanese forces to m7574.
Should we assume then that the Axis has surrendered?
