Capt Witt (Allies!) and Private P (Axis) clash in 1940

PS I knew I could rely on my Rumanian garrison to see off a few pesky Ruskies, after the rousing speech I gave them!

@wittmann:

@Private:

Does a sub in SZ125 negate the convoy damage then?

No,
It Denies Rusaia its NO.

Ahh! Thanks witt.

@wittmann:

That did not go well. The Itlailns should not have that TT alive. I was also setting up Iraq fro the soon to be poor Russians, but those stupid Arabs could not hit me! I also changed my plans and went amphibiously (a mistake), as I could not retreat after the one hit on R1. Really messed up.
I think Japan has to DW this turn. I am in trouble.
I would have saikled my fleet to Bristol. That is why I bought 3 TTs, but I was worried that the ITalian BB would damage my AB and the 3 Fts on England could not scramble.
I am playing badly and in fear.

I thought you would use the UK fleet against the Italian TT.

Think I must have forgotten Ethiopia in I1!!! :x

Your post has taught me another nuance - that bombing an AB or NB removes the move advantage for 1 turn at least, as it cannot be repaired until the end of the turn. :-)

I see that China also had some bad luck in Suiyuyan - although your odds were poor.
