Gsh34 (axis) vs. Axisplaya (allies) Alpha +3

It looks like we are both getting pretty good attrition as defenders in the last few rounds….

Hmm, I must have not scored Italy’s income on the chart correctly.  I looked back in the threads and Italy actually has 40 ipc to spend, not 37.  I also didn’t update the Italian round indicator for a while either.

@Axisplaya:

WILL YOU PLEASE STOP TO HIT OVER 50% WITH YOUR LONE INF ??  :-D :lol:

The worst thing about having the defender rolling well is that, as the attacker, we are rolling the dice against ourselves.  It is like giving a self inflicted nut-shot. :lol: :lol:
If this type of attrition holds, I fear for my attack on Moscow that should come eventually.  I better have something like 30+ more units than you for that battle.

Turn to come later tonight (hopefully).

Allied turn is up.  Good night partner.

No problem.  Take your time.  I understand.

I am trying my best to not give you any options that both easy and good.

Just to remind you, I have that German strategic bomber in Jehol.
