the allies are prepared for a very rough speed bump ahead… :-) this will be a +97 move for the axis, plus a missed turn of production for the UK - NICE! :-o
i haven’t ever seen a scenario like this before, it’s pretty cool. BUT you still don’t haven’t set foot in africa or taken a pacific island… what a game!!
-
it’s funny, i just lost the UK to Botider as well. to a single german infantry coming on a trn out of z13 - had the game in total overdrive… now we have a whole new game on our hands. very much like this one.

never said my sights were set on Africa or the Pacific…might have insinuated so :evil:
But yeah…this is the best game I have been involved in 8-)

Russian sub to z40
Go ahead with j

Even that 100 ipc plus swing is barely a dent in this game. Better pull up a chair and stay a while
-
by the way, the map and typing were off - i took phi with 9 inf, arm
-
that was quite the bitter pill to swallow… hope i could afford it. :wink:

BTW, I forgot to actually place the 2 ftr in Jap as posted last turn so I will on this map. I will be able to get to this after lunch.
