BM3 trulpen (X) vs simon33 (A+9), no guerilla

@trulpen said in BM3 trulpen (X) vs simon33 (A+9), no guerilla:

I have a compromising question. I didn’t calculate the situation in sz97, but was just thinking that I’d have plenty of enough defense with 2 filled carriers and 3 scramble units. Looks like I was wrong. Battles have been done in Russia and dice rolled, but my question is simply if you’ll allow me to change my buy with Germany from 1 ac -> 2 des? Seems I desperately need a blocker. :skull:

Still seems a pretty dogdy attack on SZ97.

Anyway, I’ll allow it, even though you’re winning!

I’m going to concede the game right there.

Japan is too strong, USA is too weak and needs to work hard just to defend San Francisco! India will probably fall in 3 rounds or so. Perhaps I can kill your German spearhead in the Middle East but this is not at all assured. Would have been nice if USA could have taken Iraq but I really needed to kill the SZ93 fleet with a 50/50, preferably with a decent force surviving.

Not sure where I lost this one but I think not going to take down Western Europe US3 was a major blunder.
