What do you lose?

Very expeditious, thank you
And I’m glad you’re losing the bomber - that was the main thing I needed to achieve here.

You must have me worried a bit, because these dice rolls are feeling stressful.

I called it.  Even after a poor first round, I got my rout in the Egyptian area that pretty much made up for the crap I’ve been going through.  Most of it.  Slippery slope.

You called it.  Luck backlash is right.  That’s gonna leave a mark.

That was for the National Objective!?  Woot!

Theres some ftrs back for gamer

@seththenewb:

Those were some pretty pathetic fighters, ha. Well, at least the German did some damage against the Brits first. I’ll pretend the German was also the one who got the single fighter hit each round.

It no doubt was the German fighter.  You are right about the Italians.  They’re all tough in the beginning, but when it matters they fail you, hard.

What else is incredible, is that the new UK bomber from South Africa was only there to take pictures.  It contributed nothing

You left out the 2 American bombers that only took out 1 destroyer the previous turn  :-P
