Canuck12 (Axis) vs. Gargantua (Allies +12) G40 WITH TECH!

@Canuck12:

Wouldnt that be it.

Well, actually its a strafe anyway, So we wont most likely see a second round. Unless of course, its no hits for you and 4 for me…

here goes!

LOL, of course it’s a strafe! :)

Wow… epic dice fail, 2 out of 15 hits…

4,2,2,2,3,1,5,6,4

Not bad Germany… not bad at all.

Hmm… Defence of Greece was interesting.

Some numbing of the pain in southern france… I can’t believe you got total capture.  Bullshit.

Wow…

Total Cost from Convoy Blockades: 13

That’ll do it to you eh?

@Gargantua:

I can’t believe you put 9 guys next to 9 planes without an AA-gun!

As for Greece, the order was completely strategic. Had to use all of my bad luck on the one ����ing Frenchman.

Well if I’d hit “odds” putting 10 units next to 9 planes isn’t such a bad idea.  You bit, and for me it was a gamble for planes you can’t replace.

Yet again, the luftwaffe is unharmed… just like it was G1,  G2, the battle of Britain, etc etc etc… Damn planes are a nuisance!

Lol… you are going to be so epic-mad on Italies turn…

I have more frustrating intentions. ;)

I do not envy Japan’s move…

But atleast it’s going to be exciting right? :)

If you want to feel better, pull up the game history and look at the axis high-water mark, (Ends of J8/J9 I think?) things were not looking so hot for the allies…

And be glad the Japanese are facing those russians… had all that russian effort been focus’d on Germany, I wouldn’t be facing ANY of this predicament, because I’d be getting 324325390 IPC’s in NO’s every turn…

I still think the allies round 9 is trumped in comparison to your Piece de Resistance in that face to face Europe game we played over several sessions…

Where you blocked my capture of Moscow by landing that French Fighter in the way…  buying yourself a considerable amount of time.

Yes - in the end, the allies broke down that game, but I’m still left with a particularly incensed and traumatic memory of the whole thing…

How close things can come… and this one isn’t over yet.
