Global 1940 Wittman and Private Panic vs Credulous and Elrood

@Credulous:

@Elrood:

Since scrambling would not increase chances of defense above 0% but planes missing in the battle in Gibraltar would greatly influence the outcome… I decide on your behalf… if you dont do so within 10 minutes. I hope thats fine

I don’t want to scramble my fighters…

M

so be it actually sweating here

Pretty much yeah  8-)

Adam likes me too much, hence he subconciously gave me that present.  :lol:
