a bit premature?? you’ve been hitting at a pretty decent rate so far with dice so imho so far it’s been a push. I know both those battles have strategic importance but still. all I can say is you cannot let allies try to attrition you down especially in bm2 when they have even a bigger ipc advantage. when I see opportunities to kill axis air at an even advantage I will do it every single time. germany without air is going to be a sure fail eventually imo. I was pretty happy to kill 9 that sequence although you hit a little more than I’d imagine at carolines  :lol:
