@captainwalker walking back into Cairo was no Option… Allies could have held me there and Suez would be open to them as well.
Wondering how Eastern Africa will develop now with my Italian army gone (after US turn)
i’ll wait for the combat roll
@witt although, I would like a DD to stay alive as long as possible . Best defence , Battleships last ,
Please .
@colt45554 subs 1 hit, damaged BB. 12 more hits
waiting for witt’s response to my suggestion
@colt45554 8 more hits and I received 6. You were down to 2 damaged BB’s, so I took the second DD instead. I just sank your fleet.

I gambled and lost on taking N Rhodesia with just 1 ground unit supported by LF. I didn’t have any infantry to take hits. So now UK can blitz the light brigade into GEAfrica, and transport the Indian army in as well. But it will be a death trap for them, as I recruited the Zulus and Boers to supplement my Hun-gry Hippos and artillery.
@Witt UK lost 244 PU in Skag and TUV declined from 1077 to 801. Sorry, bad manners for gloating, but I was tired of being bombarded, without being able to bombard in return.
And this is a game changer, as Germany and Commies were going nowhere, and CP was headed for a slow death due to tech deficit. This gives Germany a breather, until the hordes of Americans arrive. Although, they are now also heading across the Pacific to harass the Commies.

Sadly, I immediately messed up UK when given the reigns
I know yall will mention another tech gain but I am sad i got the 1/3 chance of the tech i explicitly said i didn’t want :grinning:
@colt45554 And you got it from a single die, and you got max victory bonds

it was 1 token plus 1 from last round so 2 dice but the summary obscures that. I felt like i was due for good bonds cuz they have been lackluster before that

inherits insatiable cheek and arrogance
:joy:
@colt45554 granted, your bond income was below average lately
You have all my sympathies Colt. Must be awful getting the tech you didn’t want. I am so glad that my Austria have never managed to get a tech and so spared me your pain! :-)
@private-panic trust me, the grass isn’t always greener on the other side
@colt45554 Trust me Colt - in my world it certainly always is! ;-)
