Need casualty choice for Great Britain
map attached
I believe, I can’t view the map, that I have an inf, art, arm, bmb & 2 fgt’s. If this is correct then I think….
You can take the inf, art & arm off the map for the UK in GBR. That would leave me with 2 fgt & bmb.
I guess I should have dropped a few more units into GBR? I guess it’s time for the absolute dicing the allies have taken in the Atlantic to turn around? I EXPECT to hit 3 with my defenders. that would leave you with a bmb & arm vs 2 fgt & bmb…
SHOULD I TAKE THE RISK? IF I LOSE GBR IT WILL BE MY SHORTEST GAME ON RECORD!
hmmmmm. I guess at this stage there isn’t any turning back for you? Mathematically I guess I should let my bmb go and keep the arm. it is only a 7 ipc difference.
Screw it…DAMN the dice gods. If my unit counts are correct I will lose the inf, art & arm…I will keep the bmb & 2 fgt’s!
No, you have 2 bombers.
The AA just killed my chances.
So yes, if you were going to choose infantry, art, arm anyway, you definitely would now.
I need you to whiff completely.
With nearly 50/50 odds and 60 IPC’s which is the most UK could ever have after round 2, practically, I kind of had to try it. Germany would have way over 100 IPC’s if successful on G2, so I had to try that.
It will fail, and then we’ll have a tight game. :-P
So you’re not even going to let me take a single airplane from you…. so greedy :wink:

You have UK 2 FTR, BMB and USA BMB
What do you lose
lose the usa bmb….

if you take the UK the game is over. simple as that. perhaps my fgt’s can hit in defense?
Yes no doubt the party will be over now

Sealion is an abject failure. My instincts said not to try it, but you have to in that situation. Even a 1 round hit and run might have been effective if you had played it conservatively, but once again JWW gambles and wins (I recall a certain infantry attacking and taking out a fighter early in a game)
Now the UK will be storming like you wouldn’t believe and I’ll be hanging on for dear life for several rounds. Sigh.

Not having an important territory adequately defended often turns out to be a huge advantage <sigh>Egy - 3 INF, ART, 2 ARM (Lib)
NWE - FTR (Z7) AA (Ger)
EPl - 3 INF (Pol) 3 INF, 2 ART, ARM (BSt)
Bul - ARM (BSt)
Pol - 2 INF, ART (Ger)
Z12 - SS (Z6)
Fin - 2 INF (Nwy)
Z15 - TP (Z14)
Place FTR (Z5)
Place 6 INF, 2 ARM (Ger)
Collect 52, 52 on hand
but once again JWW gambles and wins (I recall a certain infantry attacking and taking out a fighter early in a game)
that wasn’t a gamble. it was an oversight, a mistake of sorts. I typically don’t leave such prices or territories to a 50/50 chance.
