Steve (X) v Mike64 (L+20)

@surfer Well, that went poorly! Sunk cost fallacy in action.

l’d like to switch my purchase to buy a fig and 4 instead of 8 inf for uk pac. i didn’t do any battles and decision has nothing to do with the convoy results. lmk if you’re ok with it. thanks

@nikola1975 said in L25 PTV Stucifer (X+12) v Nikola1975 (L):

@Stucifer Yes, seemed like the best possibility going forward. I did not expect to win, more wanted to go until planes are left.

Makes sense, you had enough planes and reinforcements in Samara you likely could still hold Stalingrad against a counterattack.

AA - yes, please, thank you.

Moved it before I took my turn, since it easy enough to edit even if you wanted to move it somewhere other than Hunan

@Stucifer

No scramble.

@surfer Yes, saw some of the movements such as Sinkiang seem like practice round. If you need to edit some of them or redo the turn let me know.
