Cromwell (Axis) vs. Shadowguidex (Allies) Alpha 3

@zlefin said in G40 OOB zlefin (L+45) v BobbaRossa (X):

Japan continues to have bad luck in the water.

Silly unforced error. I had a couple ships that could’ve been spared to shore that up. Was flustered from the dice and convinced myself you wouldn’t go for the coin flip, even though it was a net win for you even if you’d lost, Now I feel like I have to press more than I usually would. On that note: intercept in Moscow?

@mike64 Great note, Thanks.

Yea I do want to start another game and have at least something of a strategy guide like: Germany does the usual Barbarossa type thing but maybe has some options in the med.

And I had NO IDEA what to do with Italy so anything would be helpful there.

And Japan is fun actually. And I can sense that the usual play for them is to hide in the upper left - but I had no idea that Russia could reinforce there.

I’ve a few personal crisis at the moment so I would like us to keep playing this game just so that I can learn what to do. Then start a new game in a week or two when hopefully the crisis have been resolved well.

I’m definitely having fun with this game in any case and hope that you will too even though I am a beginner.

I’ll get another turn out soon.

School’s a bit busy but manageable. I haven’t had time to play a lot lately.

Enough hits already in round 3 (not needed)

Taken as the other casualty
