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…  :-(

Your Chinese fighter was stuck - it was the only place it could be because you were down to one territory.  You pushed out and killed several Axis units.  It wasn’t a mistake to lose the Chinese fighter.
