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

looking forward to punishing the jap fleet, i hope it doesn’t backfire on me!

btw, i will be attacking z62 with all subs and aircraft available.  will your subs submerge or fight?  you can wait until i post the combat move if you want, and i’m sure it’s obvious by now what i was up to, but just wanted to let you know so you can give me that decision now or at least be thinking about it.

by the way, i just noticed i made an error on the map, i had moved the USA destroyer to z50 on UK’s turn, it is in z38 to start this turn.

coming right up with USA26

yeah, fighters from another power on carriers is a capital NASTY trick.  was trying to get you to build fleet in z62 - now let’s see if it pays off!

USA26 - with 55 buys 2 trn, 4 ftr, save 1

that wipes you out…  whew! you lose 3 subs and everything else since you have to take all hits from my subs on your subs.

let’s see if you can get into my aircraft!

yeah, the silver lining is, i don’t think you will make that mistake again.

to do this move i chose to throw away a few fighters and a couple carriers so it’s not as bad as it could have been.  nice work on positioning the german bombers in fic!

map is right, here is corrected typing
