@simon33 Yes, this is a very aggressive Axis approach. I did not use it much in the past; I am trying how it can work.

While I think the loss of the UK was inevitable, your forces were stronger on defense than on attack and the attack on Scotland just made it easier. I don’t get the attack on East Poland at all.

last ditch effort. Game lost anyway, so was just hoping for a miracle in either battle!
I’m not a big Sea Lion guy, but figured I’d give it a go. I reckon had I been more traditional on the Europe front, the game would be far more interesting with the quick loss of India.
GG - rematch?
-
Sure. Would you like Axis or Allies?
-
I’ll take a crack at Allies this time if you don’t mind?
-
No problem at all. Different bid this time? 25?
-
If you’re offering +25, sure!
-
Sure – I think we played two games at +20, right? So we’ll try it again with a different bid. Ponder how you want to spend it and let me know. I’m off to City Hall for a bit. Will get the new game started later tonight.
