@axis-dominion:

heads up, those 2 UK ftrs in 92 are actually on US carriers.

That means the US can only attack Southern Italy with 2 fighters and not 4. Triple A does not handle this correctly because Triple A assumes that you put the fighters on the british carrier.

Rostov is silly. Even without the fighter that battle should have been easy. Sometimes the dice are just plane crap.

I am referring to the fact we both missed for two entire rounds. In case you don’t understand why I am saying this :P.

Also do I use dark skies?
