Cow (allies +13) vs. Bold

ya know what - i think the AI must screw up because i just watched it do a G1 where the battleship retreated from Z110 to Z104 while the two subs it attacked 110 with remained there - that’s an illegal move.

check it out.

AI goofup.tsvg

also, the AI lost 2 ftrs instead of the 2 subs.  i think, however, if you are as far ahead as you say, the AI should be able to wipe me easily, even as stupid as it is - right?  I will have to watch out for it making illegal moves i suppose.

there could be a couple more huge dicey battles in this one - if one is a fleet war that skews heavily in axis favor who knows what may happen after that?  totally uncharted territory for me.

@Cow:

The axis are now fighting a 3 front war. Be funny if I took Italy with UK when london is out of the picture.

that would be awesome!

on the downside, my dice continue to suck so i don’t think we can continue much longer.  all game they have sucked and unless they turn hard and i take london for a song, it’s curtains quite soon.
