even though it is completely irrelevant to know before J7, i will tell you that there is ONE SINGLE FIGHTER on every acc in z6.  the FIRST time that it could possibly be relevant however, is following USA7, where we will again give you a new distribution.  If we ever fail to give you a distribution, you cannot assume it is the same as it was the previous turn.  If we forget to say, please ask.

Cheers

in order to give cow time to return, i propose that we play this game to full victory conditions (either axis gets 8 vc in europe or 6 vc in pacific, OR allies take all three axis capitals).  You guys up for it?

@Gamerman01:

I think it is proper for a player to put in the game notes at the end of a turn when there are carriers and fighters where the distribution could possibly matter.  Nobody should have to ask for it.  Same with units on transports.

amazingly i still don’t know how to correctly add a note.

so this doesn’t get buried under the previous posts and get missed by AWN and Hank, i am bringing it back up to the top.

@allweneedislove:

we always planned on playing until we capturing a vc win. but feel free to resign earlier if you want.

if by some miracle you start to get the upper hand and would like us to keep playing i would probably be ok with continuing to play, not sure about hank13 thou.

when we “start to get the upper hand?”….  AWN, i love your deadpan humor.  :wink:  :lol:

i don’t really like talking smack, my game should do all the smacking.

in this case you asked a question and i gave an honest answer, with a very small jab added in.

well, your game isn’t doing any smacking, so it’s time to start letting your words do more.  :wink:

can’t wait to see how you try to win without moscow.  this is gonna be really really fun.

we have kindly attacked the neutrals in order to provide you with some extra infantry - in the hopes that you can keep the game competitive a little longer and give cow more time to possibly work up some courage to come back and face the WRATH OF TEAMBOLDDUTCH  :evil:

EDIT - ONE AA TO VOLOGDA
