Oh I am wondering if I am doomed in this game already.
Certainly anything can happen with the dice, but the odds are looking a bit long.

Took a minute to register that the Italians are down to one aircraft. I’m not used to that. Figured you wouldn’t scramble, so I cheated one plane away. Dice were my friend - big time.
So I don’t need a 4th fighter in London…… moved it back to Scotland

Oh boy, from Hero to Zero. :cry:

Very dramatic Allied response…. I almost forgot I did lose a sub in 96… good thing
Big time decisions to make in round 2… -

mhhh. If that sub at 96 would have won, I would have said we are kind of okish in terms of dice because that would have given me 2 extra ground at Europe.
Now I guess the only good thing after G1 I can look at is that I can be relieved that 93 did not end up in a disaster^^Lets see what the next turns bring^^
I have guests over the weekend, cannot say when G2 will be done.

Will try to get ANZ/Fra done, but need to leave soon for the rest of the day….
