Karl7 (Allies + 9) vs MiamiUMike (Axis) - G40.2

I mean - would YOU continue here?

Well, in the interest of keeping the game going I suppose - would you be OK with me going back and retreating after round 1. I only hit one - you hit 3 times (with less firepower) - so, tip your BB, I lose 2 subs and tip my BB and it retreats to 112 with the planes. In that case, I would also NCM the cruiser to 112 and the planes land in W. Germany.

I mean, you still nailed me in France and 106, but at least it isn’t that bad.

You are a gentleman. Thanks - and hopefully I can give you a good game still…

Indeed - I will try to determine the advantage in this idea vs the more common attack…

But - I will scramble all 3 fighters - OOL is Italy, Germany, Italy - ships OOL is sub, dd, cruiser (which as I type this I could have just said - STANDARD - LOL)

MM

So - looking it over - what was your thinking in attacking sz95 instead of sz97?
