@Stucifer

I considered the airstrike option. Figured the Russian attack on Finland would be costly and leave Leningrad defenseless to a take over. Plenty of time for regrets.

@Stucifer said in L25 PTV Stucifer (X+11) vs Axis-Dominion (L):

Thanks for the game. Need a little break before taking on a 300-ELO difference again haha.

If you want to try out a low-luck non league game I can play a little more recklessly I’m game.

ok, well good game, and fwiw you fought much like a top tier player tbh, except for maybe taking unnecessary risks with big battles that show a bad avg tuv, imo, but i understand where you’re coming from and there’s always the attacker’s advantage of being able to retreat.

Max scramble to SZ95 and OOL will depend on how many hits you get first round in each battle.
