There you go. I think that’s it.

I had some luck at the end which definitely helped this outing. Particularly the first Normandy attack, but I didn’t win the game in Europe.

Is Axis+6 too much?

@aequitas:

But i have to say i wasn’t happy that you didn’t ask me fr an Ool.
Please Keep asking me for battles like this for an Ool.
This game is yours, no doubt. Just for the future. And CMF is not my favorite 8-)

I took Max D and it wasn’t enough for you. I’ll note your comments but I can’t see how it could possibly have turned out differently in this case.

Re: CMF, you aren’t the only one! I think it should really be one massive, combined phase of CM/Repair/Purchase. That’s what everyone does in live games isn’t it?

Re: 16 blocker, that would have delayed but not changed the final outcome.

Re: swapping, we’re already 1/1 with both games going to the Axis. Not sure I follow you.

I’ll give you 3 IPCs for Axis if you’re still up.
