L16 G40 StuckTojo (Allies +17) vs Simon33 (Axis) Game IV

@simon33:

Did you mean to leave that inf in Vyborg?

Yes.

@simon33:

Another question: how come you didn’t unload the TT from SZ96 to Tobruk in Combat Movement?

Now that was a big-time brain fart: Long day, past my bedtime, a few glasses of wine, and voila!

Just glad I didn’t lose that one. I’m sure karma will bite me in the a$$ later to balance things out.

@simon33:

I’ll have to award a medal to that KV-1 tank in Leningrad.

I know. I was getting so frustrated with my dice I just slapped the spacebar and inadvertently kept on attacking with my plane instead of retreating. Of course, it missed (again), and of course your tank hit (again). What with that stupid deed, and the Tobruk near-fiasco, I’ll be lucky if I’m still alive by the time the US is in it.  Time to get focused here.  :wink:
