@Elrood That’s somewhat true, but G is mostly a one-trick pony, take Paris. While the Centrals have won many, but not most of our games without G taking Paris, as the other players and their strategies and abilities took center stage.

@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.

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

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! :-)
