hey SAS sorry, have indeed been very busy with the little one… will try to get a move in today for you.
Whenever you get the chance, don’t worry about me. Was just wondering if you were still around. You’ve got more important things to do than play games. :-)

surely you will take maximum defense with that roll… for now it doesnt matter whether we take off des’s or acc’s since there are no attacking subs.

Wow. I’ll give you that I overlooked the fighter in WUS, and I also overlooked the battle calculator’s default OOL having the carrier higher than fighters and bombers; which boosted your odds of winning that battle considerably… If I had recognized that I would’ve bought infantry rather than subs… With the combination of those two mistakes, that took your odds from what I thought was a 7% chance of you winning, to a 40% chance. Live and learn.
I will have to concede at this point then. I have nothing that can counter you taking Japan, and Germany and Italy are in trouble in the West, so I don’t see any possible way I can turn this around as Japan was where I thought I was doing the best.
Congratulations on a well-played game, and good luck in the playoffs (if you’re going to make the cut).
Thanks for the game man. No playoffs for me this year, I’m sure. Too many early losses to good players.
See you around, maybe in next years league.
Bold
You too. Congrats on the little one. :-)
