2014 Championship – (4) Ghostglider(+21) v (2) Gamerman01(Axis)

Scramble 1 fighter to 112?

You’re assuming the Germans can kill that artillery!!  :wink:

Will be interesting to see what Ghost spends all that Christmas money on.  I don’t want him building anything in Stalingrad….

Or tribute to the Japanese to leave them alone in the future?  To stay on their half of the globe?

Thanks man -
finishing

I assumed Russian and USA mech in West India - change it if you like

Scramble fighter to 113 on UK27 to stop battleship bombardment, assuming you attack with 3 infantry, 1 artillery, 1 fighter, 2 bombers.  Although, there’s a 1% chance that the fighter would sink everything  :-D

Thanks for update -
It IS fun!  And that’s the name of the game, so game on

I recommend naval bases, if that helps you decide  :-D

Oops, I see I made a calc error and wish to edit my J noncom a bit
