L21 #1 max334 (X+5) vs trulpen (A) P2V

Doesn’t matter much, since I think it’s a very solid defense in z93, but this post is with the US-tac on the US-carrier. You can of course cancel that if you feel it’s not ok.

Then just use the previous post.

i forgot to move my air in Rome. Let me know if that affected your decisions in the Med

It does, actually, so can’t allow it. Actually looked at it before and Rome was safe. Without the german air there, I would’ve had positive odds on bringing down Italy with UK and might have gone for it.

The german air has to stay in Rome for now, sorry.

I could perhaps also have played a bit differently around London as well.

I didn’t look at it closely. Also wouldn’t a sub have served the same purpose as the dd in the channel?

Nope, since a sub can be ignored. It doesn’t make the sz hostile. The point was to block picking up troops for amphi.

I’m out of town and don’t have my laptop charger. Nearly out of power so I’ll do the invasion later today when i get home. Do you want to do it live?

No rush. If it’s a big battle (seems you refer to Sea Lion), I’d prefer to be able to look at casualties. Atleast in the first or maybe even second battle round. Probably max d is the choice, but it’s not completely certain.

I will be home for about one more hour and thereafter I won’t be very available. I might be able to look via my phone, but not for certain. Will play Terraforming Mars with some friends.

Might be that I’m back by then.

And negating any shore bombardment as well, of course.

This way also the fleet has to either stay and fight or move away.

@trulpen well that sucks, but it’s probably balanced out by your loss of air in Scotland. I think i might still have 70/80% odds

Yeah, sorry about that, but it was simply too much of an impact on the position primarily during UK.

The loss of 2 air in Scotland was a horrible affair for the Allies. Makes things very promising for the nazis.

I’m home now. Have time tomorrow, so just start it and I’m likely around.

SL is not so common, but it happens. I’m positive I’ve experienced it on both end with both players present.

Germany/Italy has 7 VC’s, so if you manage to bring down London it’s practically game over. There’s a chance to take it back though with US, but it can easily fizzle.

What I can see there’s 65-70 % on the defense, but perhaps I’ve missed something?

Abstained to take Scotland with 1 frenchie just to maximize the defense of an eventual SL. Losing 1 fig, 1 tac was extremely bad.
