JDOW Axis vs alexgreat Allies+19

@JDOW:

I don’t think that Bryansk was of strategic relevance as I could stack Bryansk any way next turn.
However on the eastern front any unit counts.

The Russian dice were very poor, lucky for me!

No, cant hold Bry of course. Even I know that :) Thats not what I meant.
The odds to hold both territories got uglier with the surviving art and inf, provided you chose to attack one or the other.

Du koenntest Russland und Tambov angreifen, Betonung auf “koentesst”. Und will ich beide verteidigen, was ich tue, dann mit schlechteren Chancen jetzt. Aber uU ja eh nicht relevant.

JDOW, need your explicit approval: Can I non-combat the Russian sub from 105 to 110? No bearing on your Japan move, but still.

and on top I forgot Cyprus.

na, those edits I am not comfy with it. Sure it was my plan, and trust is appreciated, but no thx. As for calling off, I dont think I am in the lead here, and without some risk I wont have a chance. One hit more than average, and one less for you, just for a change, would have been fine for me. But wasnt to be.

But I dont think that 66% is “risky”. 2 out of 3 times I’d win, and I was even fine to lose and take all ships and a German fig with me. Could have waited, could have built up more, all true, but time is not standing still in Russia.
