Stucifer

@Argothair Scrambled fighter paid off, had to lose the tac to capture :) pretty solid dice for the Axis overall though. Wouldn’t have minded getting to retreat my battleship in 114…

I’m happy to discuss the game, map, strategy openly with you

Also feel free to skip scrambles for 80%+ odds with negative expected TUV change

You were kind enough to show me your strategy in the video, so I thought I’d better give you something interesting in response. :)

The North Sea battle was a disaster (Cunningham is fired!) but otherwise I am satisfied so far.

Stucifer

@Argothair I hoped for a couple hits back, saving the BB is quite good…and getting a fighter in Normandy. Will do my best to make Cunningham’s mistake my advantage 😈

@Argothair said in L25 PtV Stucifer (X+9) v Argothair (L):

French Air Chief Vuillemin is also fired!

Certainly sending the lone fighter against the gnashing teeth of a Bismarck with air cover was a rash decision, but one demanded by French élan and revanche in the grief after losing their beloved Paris to the jackboots.

I believe the lone legionnaire in Algeria needs to be awarded a Croix de Guerre as well
