12L - BoldFresh (allies +9) vs EB (axis)

@gamerman01 I am not comfortable selecting your losses for G5’s combat phase. As a summary of the situation so far:

Germany did not roll tech.

Germany built 2 transports and 7 infantry, with 2 IPCs left over

Germany attacked the 2 British fighters in Persia with 2 fighters from Anglo-Egypt Sudan and 1 fighter from Eastern Europe. Both sides lost everything: Germany lost all 3 fighters and Britain lost all 2.

Germany is attacking Ukraine with 25 infantry and 8 tanks (unresolved as of yet)

Germany is attacking India, which has 2 British fighters and 1 British bomber, with 1 infantry and one bomber from Anglo-Egypt Sudan, along with a naval bombardment. The transport, battleship, and both subs from the sea zone north of Anglo-Egypt Sudan and west of Syria Jordan have all moved to the India sea zone. The naval bombardment scored a hit. These were all of Germany’s combat moves. Would you prefer to take the hit in a fighter or the bomber?

@Pejon_88 sorry, i am away from home. Coming back today.

@Adam514 said in 2025 Playoff-final - Ghostglider vs Adam514 (allied +22):

Art for China is a minor advantage in my opinion.

Well there is also the advantage of not having to expend infantry to retake Yunnan. Perhaps still a minor advantage but often enough to prevent Japan taking India j5.

@simon33 well this suddenly got interesting…sorry about that, admittedly it was a complete hail mary and i didn’t even really prepare it right in the chance i did win.
