@Avner Boo. I can’t access the dice server! Stucifer posted earlier that this was a problem. I guess we’ll have to delay.

I thought you were going to save the carrier
If I had more foresight I would have remembered I had an ANZAC fighter to land on it. C’est la vie -
I noticed that, and I almost woulda done it but I do want that fighter
Thank you

Might be better off not throwing in all the marbles to 37. So like you said.

It looks like I’m going to keep the fast and loose play coming. I can’t believe how fast Japan got hammered, but I won’t say anything more for now

The Russian front is looking very grim, and a drive-by of the Caucasus seems imminent with nothing to stop it…
Nice job on that Italy attack, was not expecting it. Not that I had anything more to put into Iraq. The Soviet Spread of Communism gambit has failed to become delicious Roquefort and is instead confined to the moldy dustbin of great value shredded American.

Thank you!
We just have daggers to each other’s throats, like every fun game should be -
Easy to miss - not something you’d expect when only 2 wimpy Italian units there and suicide for planes
Japan is so crippled lol
I’ll make sure to blow up several more of my units -
Most A&A games are like sniper matches, lots of movement, few shots, utter destruction most of the time something lands.
This is as you say, daggers to throats. It brings to mind competition longsword fighting: quick short bouts with some quick footwork and a lot of hits back and forth!
-
-
a short 2 minute video if you’ve never watched longsword combat. I did HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts) for a couple years and really should get back into it. Fantastic exercise ;)
-
Thanks, that’s awesome
Looking forward to delivering the next slash n stab tonight

Thinking about tech since Martin had that question,
I’m actually thinking in my future games I may propose that LRA not be entirely delayed another round. LRA needs to be delayed to avoid game-breaking attacks AND so you don’t have to prep your forces to reduce the damage.
Anyway, would be quite possible to give LRA almost immediate impact like all the rest of the techs without breaking the game.
When discovered, use of the extra range is not allowed in making a combat move. During noncombat, all aircraft can go an extra space.
Seems like a good compromiseAnd no it has nothing to do with my fantastic fortune in discovering LRA early with Germany
(oh it’s just fun to even write that!)

Going to roll my tech dice here if that’s ok because it is making planning my US turn very difficult without knowing if I get something haha. Not buying an additional token, so I have ~42% chance to get at least one hit.
