Ghostglider (Allies) vs Simon33 (Axis+6) PtV

@AndrewAAGamer said in 2025 OOB Playoff Final AndrewAAGamer (L+51) bs BobbaRossa (X):

No scramble in SZ 111.

Submerge orders are needed as well since I do not have a destroyer present.

@BobbaRossa

Oh wow, every single hit mattered - the balance is on a razor’s edge, so crazy.

I really wasn’t expecting you to hit Greece - thought the fleet might get sunk though.

I pretty much had to. I made a bad error by not defending Greece and the planes you added dropped the % on Moscow down below 50. An average result from the air strike would have raised the percentage back up to 80 and I feel would have pushed you off. Can’t be afraid of the dice, even when they burn you :P.

Novgorod will fall next round I think. Ukraine should be captured this round but you might recapture. Paris will fall this round and you are unlikely to recapture at least next round, perhaps the round after although at great cost. Italy should be reduced to 1IPC/round. Still alive and kicking but not so much fighting.

Not sure about the Pacific, Japan has interesting choices about what to defend.

You may replace the two AA Guns from Russia for two Inf if you want to, bc it was obvious that Germany was not going for the long Battle.

(but what really hurt was the kills of Your AA_Guns indeed!)
