@surfer its a risk but I will keep the battleship
17L -Pete (Axis +5) versus Simon33 (Allies) Bm2
-
GG.
-
Thanks for the game. I think I’ve made the same mistake in one or two other games I’ve got going.
-
my pleasure. you mean egypt?
-
Yeah, I mean Egypt
-
Egypt is a huge PU swing, yeah. and axis air is so mobile, it’s a nightmare to retake egypt.
You do have a good offensive knack, but you leave openings everywhere when you go balls out like that. Jus’ sayin’. Pay attention to defence and income/TUV swing as well as your tactical flair and you’ll post more W’s. -

Losing that USN fleet SZ35 near the end was a major setback, or would have been had I not lost in Europe.

yeah. It began with your decision to scramble 110 on G1 :-P. That was pretty ballsy

I think that is a good decision! Reduces the Luftwaffe for Barbarossa.

run that through your bcalc and tell me again if you think it’s a great idea :wink:

It also means you can’t hit 97. You either have to build an airbase in gib +transports and air, hit 97, or build a factory in Egypt to have a chance to hold it.

It’s a negative one TUV expected value. However, killing two Luftwaffe is worth losing more than 2 RAF IMO. I suppose I lost 3 to kill two though which may be dubious. Without the scramble, there’s a chance your BB can live. I don’t like that much.

It means you can’t bring a second plane to SZ97 in this case. You’ll note that I still hit SZ97.
I’m still not entirely sure how to handle it when the SZ91 cruiser is sunk. Looks like my attack on SZ96 failed which is a real problem. I suppose if I had more fighters in London I could have brought a second fighter in and used the SZ98 cruiser to sub in for the SZ91 one.

you had an underpowered attack on 97.
