12L, AA50-41, Ol' Blood&Guts (Axis) vs. Boldfresh (Allies+7), no tech, + NOs

russia does nothing

the dice givin me a little much needed payback eh?  :-o

yes but both were more than offset by that one single italian tank hit that led to 15 trn and 5 battleships going to the bottom (my mistake of course, but still, one random italian hit sends all that fleet to the bottom?  maddening!)

@Boldfresh:

yes but both were more than offset by that one single italian tank hit that led to 15 trn and 5 battleships going to the bottom (my mistake of course, but still, one random italian hit sends all that fleet to the bottom?  maddening!)

:evil:

yeah, at one point, i knew i had to take cng to make the fleet safe.  but of course, time passed before i made the final move and i thought, why throw away 2 inf, just take one and kill that tank, forgetting that taking the territory was paramount.  this would be a much different game if that had not happened.  you never would have had a shot on either of the fleets you attacked.  because that did happen, it’s going to make things tight regarding fleet vs. axis air for the rest of the way.

hang on, need to change that noncom!  forgot you have 3 bombers that can hit east indies!  :roll:

learning this new map layout is going to give me ulcers.

i bet you are wishing we hadn’t switched to tripleA on one hand (hassle) and happy we did on the other (i’m completely lost and making mistakes!)

placed ftr in sum

landed ftr from z36 in phi
