@oysteilo:

I am considering to surrender right now. That was horrible  :|

Just wait a little with Italy.  I am still considering this. Italy will completely dominate after this.

@alexgreat:

2 things:

You can oc still consider what you do after Italy. No harm in moving it.
I dont know why, but tripleA lets you attack the three Med TTs with both African UK fighters. They drown then, but of course you cannot move there legally as you have no landing spot (you would have if ANZAC / France liberate TJ, but I tried it out even with Italian TJ and fighters could go destroy TTs). Pls review and let me know your take. If there IS a legal possibility of those two fighters in Tang and Nig to attack the TTs, I will non-combat my fleet there. But I am certain there is no way…just to make sure I dont miss any BM stuff. And you still need TJ AND Egypt to move through Suez, right?

There must be a bug that allow the plane to attack. It cant

I am not continuing with this game because:

1. My uk fighters are sitting in London doing nothing, with BM they have nowhere to land in Africa. I guess I could fly them to guiana and from there to Nigeria or something, but they are too late and are missing the action
2. My uk fleet sits in the indian ocean doing nothing
3. Next round you have egypt and Iraq (probably)
4. In this situation a minor in Persia seems risky.
5 By Italy 3 you will have control of egypt and the middle east and make 18 in bonus

The way I see it that leaves us with two options

1. I can post your win
2. You let me have a redo of UK. It can be a dice redo or a low luck redo of that crtical battle. You decide You will also have the right to do a similar redo in a failed battle of your choice

You decide

Maybe it is easier that I just post your win?

But you agree that this is going to be near impossible for the allies?

No need to be sorry, it is just a game like you say. Give me until tomorrow before I post. I kind of hate to give up so early.  Maybe this is a good opportunity to try “crazy” stuff  :-D

But can I consider the placement of my airbase?  It should probably not go to Egypt

@alexgreat:

well, problem is, if you would have put it on Gibraltar, I might have needed to take it with Italy, as you would make it untakeable with Uk and US reinforcements in rd 2.
It would be a nice bonus for Italy, but its ok, place it elsewhere, dont worry about it!

I won’t place it in Egypt or Gibraltar ,  but I asked if you could hold on with Italy.
