The G1 catches 7 Rus inf before 4 of them can redeploy to the second tier defense, but I don’t know as that’s enough to make it worthwhile.  In the real war, most historians thought the Germans should have waited another year or two to build up material and supplies and bring more advanced weapons and tanks into the action.  The Germans hadn’t really planned ahead like they had for Bel/Hol/Fra, because they had a peace treaty and Hitler didn’t tell them otherwise.

S.A. Ger submerge sub in sz110?

I made the Brit purchases.  They didn’t show in my post, but they are in the posted save game.  I didn’t change any settings or uncheck any boxes.  So I don’t know why it didn’t post my purchases.

@FMErwinRommel:

Poor start for Brit.  Ger subs rolled extremely well, 2 of 3 rolled a one.  While my dd & ftr missed in sz124.  Since the sub couldn’t hit my plane, the dd had to take the hit and thus the ftr could no longer attack the sub without the dd.  My BB didn’t get hit, but will be sunk on Ger’s turn.

I was looking at the league game between Dawg axis & S.A. allies.  Interesting, opening turn, sz111, Brit scrambled and came down to each side had its BB left and they sank each other.  Is that 2nd Ed or BM3?

THE HOOD GOES DOWN!!!

I’m fairly certain that the hood went UP historically lol

2nd Ed
S.A. and i have been best friends for over 40 years
we’ve played A&A for a long time so we kind of no what each others habbits are
so i’m not sure if this can be an example of how we play others.
experiments happen.

Is it a 2nd Ed or BM3 game?  What is the ranking level order for triplea?  Is battleship or heavy bomber higher and what is the highest?  I’d be interested in playing a one-on-one league game (best of 3 game series) with any of you.  Playing against a more experienced player would give me valuable experience.  Although playing against me might lower your PPG.
