So, I’ll just come out and explain that Italian CV purchase….because I’m sure you are thinking :?
1.) It can not be sunk by the French or Russians, the only Allied powers to go before Japan.
2.) Japan can bring to z80
-2 SS z39
-1 fig, 1 tac z42 and land on Italian CV
-2 sbr from Sze can attack z80 (5 moves) and land in Irq.It is probably a pretty even battle (6 hits and dice rolls vs 6 hits and dice rolls), but a bit in my favor because my units have a higher attack value than your defenders. The first round will probably decide the outcome of the battle. Anyways, I had to retaliate for the sinking of my “for show only” Italian fleet you know! :-D
French, you are up.
Hmm….can you fly over Russian Soil while not at war with Russia ?
If yes, that’s my bad, thought you couldn’t, and i’ll get my ass kicked in sz80, no problem.
Also, if you can’t fly over Russia and you want to redo your Italian purchase and moves, no problem with that either.France 9

I think not, but I had better check into it to know for sure. Despite that, I still have a valid route because I can fly through German held Kaz and then z128 (Caspian Sea).

Sigh…true, hadn’t considered this…ans also, i didn’t anticipate the Italian AC purchase…Hope i can take down a few planes when you’ll attack…

I watched my Chicago Bears play football tonight, so my turn will have to wait until tomorrow (hopefully). I still have a kitchen to clean after cooking supper.

If it makes you feel any better, you’ll still come out ahead in the whole exchange. I by no means am guaranteed victory with my Japanese in the upcoming battle (6 units v 6 units) AND you’ve already sunk my Italian fleet. Anyways, here’s the German turn.

When I had my three German tanks in Kaz a few rounds ago, I was afraid that you were going to fly your five planes to take them out and protect your income from the SFE. I did not really have any other units in position to go take those territories for at least two more rounds (if not more) if you had done this.
Oh, and just to let you know, I’ve continued to place my finest units from the whole game in the ring of territories around Russia. Watch out if you attack them! :-D :-D :-D

When japan is unable to take the russian eastern territories, it’s not rare to see the german going for it with tanks.
And no, i wouldn’t risk any russian plane to kill your tanks. At this point, i just know that Russia will fall and i’m trying to prepare for after(if there is an “after” worth playing)….so i don’t really care about those territories.Russia 10

Ok, now, since you have elite troops that shot over 60% with dices @2, you’ll have to pay for that tech that you unduly aquired while i wasn’t watching closely enough. Cost is 6 token = 30 IPC
If you don’t hit a 6 out of those 6 dices, you’ll have to repay another 30IPC to try again until you hit. Then we’ll be even. :lol: :lol:NCM= all air Rus

Now i’ll get to see my UK fleet sunk….All the while i had a feeling that i should kill an AC and keep one intact with 2fgt on it, but i couldn’t see the combo with the italian AC…
:? :?How could i forget your best speciality : blowing stuff with your planes… -
?How could i forget your best speciality : blowing stuff with your planes…
Well partner, I have good news and, depending on how this goes, probably even worse news than you losing your UK fleet. The good news is that I completely missed a move Japan can do so the Italian CV was for nothing. It is yours to freely sink. Now for the bad news…… I can’t say what it is yet because the dice can always intervene, but the odds are way more in my favor on this new attack. I will also say that it uses my “specialty” that you previously mentioned: “blowing stuff up with my planes…” :lol: :lol: :lol:
Regarding the Russian front…I warned you I was placing my best trained units out there. :wink: I see you have caught onto the results that my “secret research” led to. Now, if I informed you how that was achieved, it wouldn’t be very secret anymore now would it? :evil:

Ok, now the big dog battle. I plan on killing everything, so unless the dice roll horrible for me (in which case I’ll ask for OOL), I’ll use my judgement on which units you want to lose.
