XDAP-01 Transatlantic Alliance (Axis) vs. The Fighting Mongooses (Allies)

There are 2 ftrs in India that can intercept the Japanese bmrs (unescorted because I forgot  :oops:) on the bombing run. Would you like to intercept?

I am going to post the map here so I can resume later from my laptop if necessary

No intercept

Pfftp,

I would have gone for it.

“While others were fighting and dying pointlessly, he was hiding in a hole … wallowing in a pool of his own cowardice.”

“That wasn’t cowardice!”

For some reason it would not post last night….most likely the spotty internet.

2/12 to your 8/12 in Egypt ….  :-(

It was a little risky, but the odds were in our favor.  Wish we could have been less lucky in SZ125 (which was not all that important) and more lucky in Egypt (critically important).

2 notes:

1. I screwed up by not picking the tank as casualty before retreating (Sorry kilroy, sort of made a terrible situation slightly more terrible)

2. I only bought 1 infantry and used edit to reduce the income we started with in UKP from 6 to 5 to reflect the IC damage we should have had to pay.  For some reason no damage to our Calcutta IC showed up on the map when there should have been 10.

Ouch!  those are some awful dice. Now the Allies officially know why this is called Extra Pain and Death!

No problem on the delay…. the UK is still licking their wounds…

So, just to understand the pain and suffering the Brits took in the Egypt battle, it seems that there was only a 3.5% chance of the Italians hitting as many times as they did, and only a 16% chance of UK hitting as few times as they did!  That is a BAD beat for sure!

No problem

I am back and will get Italy done tonight  8-)
