@Stucifer said in 2025 PTV Playoffs Stucifer (X+13) vs Adam514:

@Adam514 Looks like I shift+clicked here there should have been a tac left on the carrier in 38, but I understand if it’s too late to fix it.

3 artilleries, 2 fighters, 3 infantry, 2 marines and 2 tactical_bombers moved from 38 Sea Zone to Malaya

Ah yeah I don’t use that functionality so that didn’t occur to me that that might have happened. I didn’t go for some other options in order to be able to set up that attack. I think it’s too late to change the move. Hopefully the dice in that battle are fair.

Yeah I usually try not to leave a fleet with 70% odds to die 😅

@cwglee51 Bryansk forward has been a work in progress for a year or more. I’m concluding it leaves the rest of the world anemic. I’m kind of talking to myself. Many times the pros hold Moscow and Samara in strength.
