FMERommel (Axis) vs Desert Admiral (Allies+16)

You have a very positive TUV from bombing. I have a very negative TUV from bombing. I needed the extra hit, you didn’t, considering your advantage in ftrs.

Achieved Ger objectives, regained border terr, including Fin, for the continuing skirmishing. Decent dice where it counted. Novg wasn’t bombed and I still can’t build there due to massive U.S. air power. I read that the Ger allocated I think it was 70% of their ftrs to bombing interdiction, which greatly reduced their air presence on the Rus front.

Savegame

Ger does have almost twice the units and more than twice the TUV. Japan has done a better job getting to Rus than in our team game. But I think 71 P.U. should be enough to repair and build a sizable Rus force. And there are 16 American and 13 Brit planes in Rus. So I don’t see a Ger march on Moscow. Especially now that the U.S. finally built an I.C. in Norway. I will take my turn tomorrow eve.

Savegame

As you can see by the dice stats, the Italians rolled 3 hits under. One under on round 1 and 2 under on round 2. I only had a 1/3 chance of winning, but I expected to drastically weaken the U.S. for Ger to follow up. I don’t think the Euro axis have won a major single battle with positive TUV. Ger has just under a breakeven chance to finish off the U.S. I think you got complacent, not adding any new units to Gre.
