15L Playoff Rd2: [4] JDOW (Axis) vs. [8] Gamerman01 (Allies +25)

Allies AA vs Axis: 6/22. 1/13 vs Germans and 5/9 vs Japan.
Axis AA vs Allies: 1/9
The German turn was great, no question.
From Japan 1/10 I could not buy anything. You had a flawless US turn following so I would have been happy to get more hits by ground units and get my planes back in return :)

Axis AA vs Allies 1:10 I guess, the Russians dodged one shot early, too.

@Gamerman01:

This is the first time you’ve pointed out any of my luck, I think!

I didn’t intend to point out your luck but to just respond to “And your little AA stat is heading back towards normal too with 3 huge misses” ;)

@Gamerman01:

Well rolling 5 aces out of 17 in the Ukraine was real nice for you too.  Exactly the number of hits you needed for a one round kill

That’s the bonus you get when you state even before the game how much your Axis headquarters hates the Russians.
It’s not about winning, it’s about hitting and hurting your beloved Russians  :-P

I could just grab a quick look. Will move tonight!

No intercept Stalingrad and tricky choice at Caro. 2/3 chance to take a DD down or 5% chance the landing fails.

Scramble at Caro please.
