CDS (Axis) vs FlyingBadger (Allies) - PtV

@cds FFS, screwed it again…

@cds It’s been over a hour since my last coffee, I fade fast… I think scramble(d) refers to my brain. Third time lucky… restarted… got this far… don’t think I’ve ballsed it up (yet).

@cds Round 3, 14 hits on Germans.

@cds Thank f*k that’s over

@cds Yeah, learned a lot from that battle.

1. Concentrate when picking scrambling and casualties :dizzy_face:
2. Russia can (in PtV) throw punches and not just retreat (so maybe buy with that in mind).
3. Good to trade units when yours are near there ICs and the opponents are far away.

@cds Yeah, I definitely spent the first few turns figuring out the mechanics, especially the new map, scrambling and the Pacific Islands.

It is great fun though, love the depth to it but still has a good pace to the game. I am fond of tacticals and cruisers so glad to have those at a better price
