15L G40 Wittman (+21) v Gamerman01 (Axis)

@wittmann:

Two turns ago, you had 3 Ground units, one AA and 5 Air (maybe a Bomber). I considered attacking with 10 Inf and the Ft.
Could have been messy, but needed  to safeguard Russia’s rear and reduce your Ground units.
The stand off was to your advantage.

You’re right

Scramble USA fighter to 92?
2 bombers attacking a destroyer

Submarine submerge in 95?

I would have sent the sub to 92 in that case, plus I had a 3rd bomber that could reach  :-)

Agh!  I didn’t stay up quite late enough for your decision, but am up for a bit right now so will keep this one moving!  It’s rough to be interrupted in the middle of turns, but you give me decisions ASAP!  Playing multiple games at a time, when someone makes me wait 12+ hours for decisions like this it gets inconvenient!  So thank you

Argh!! BOTH your destroyers hit me!

Whoa, but everything else was very successful, so never mind  :-P

Yep, this way you took down a bomber and didn’t lose a fighter - it always works out great when you get fabulous luck! (regarding Gibraltar and Z92 only  :-))

Shoot, that’s no problem, I owe you for allowing the fighter attack on the Z99 transport anyway (I would allow it anyway)
Thanks for not presuming

You do still have one fighter left - the boys in Vologda would have appreciated some air support  :-)

Very tough going with the dice for the Russians again….  :-(

Well, I matched your silly mistake with one of my own - totally forgot to attack the sub in 55 with a destroyer, or destroyer + sub or something.  Oh well, I guess now you don’t get a chance to sink a boat and I only have to send one…

The dice still aren’t helping you out…  :-(
