I wondered if you’d go for bombing the London airbase and then decimating the 110 fleet, but of course that was very risky. Of course the bomber would have been shot down, but it did have a 25% chance of squeaking through.

And you just have 1 German ship, so even if the Italian bomber did its dirty deed, the Luftwaffe might have taken heavy losses.
Maybe you will still go for it -

@gamerman01 and the hits just keep coming…frsnce is going to win this on its own
-
@gamerman01 just on my forum posts you are on +9 casualties inflicted without how well or badly the uk/china did on its go. 8 hits in greece dont make up for only 2 hits in normandy…esp as you hit3/4 there as well. This is just a lost cause as I dont think you will make any mistakes to exploit either
-
@gamerman01 even the 1 sub did 3/4 convoy!
-
Unbelievable. I’ll take a look
Thanks for playing the G2 already
I have to go do some charity work, back in an hour -
That is ridiculous. And you kept your head (kept calm) for doing G2. You still have a big army on my border and 10 aircraft with Germany, so I have to be sure I don’t get lazy.
-
Russia 2 was hard even though you lost 3 mech in Normandy, lost 2 infantry in Yugo, and took all infantry to Greece… I shudder to think…

@gamerman01 hey there, thinking you may have missed my g post?
-
Nope - I know it’s my turn
-
Your Russian offensive is hardly weakened by the difficult dice…
I have to be in tip top condition, well rested, well fed, at peak morale and praying for a terrible winter in order to hold Moscow -
Several of your battles went poorly, but quickly reviewing the first 2 rounds of the game (because your Russian offensive is very strong), I realize the following:
Some battles went quite well for the Axis- France went well. Only 1 artillery lost
- Yugo about average, 2 infantry lost (so no reduced pressure on Russia)
- 97 lost, but UK had to lose 2 planes and the 2 remaining surfaceships were cleaned up with no losses by Germany
- Although Italy lost sub/destroyer in 93, the cruiser got lucky and took out a UK sub that is a major threat to convoy damage
- Normandy, Germany lost 3 mech and 2 artillery that were not lost in Paris G1
- Greece, even though 3/4 infantry hits looks awful, Germany actually only lost 1.67 extra infantry, and they won’t get to Russia for a few turns anyway
- Normandy and Holland cleaned up, no losses
So although you and I both felt like the Axis were taking hard hits, as I look at it fresh today, I have a real war on my hands. Disasters were partly mitigated, for sure, especially 97 and 93
No resting on laurels yet. Game on!! -
What is really tough for you is the UK has a good fleet still floating, the Italians have been decimated, and the Western wall is not a wall.
