Can I edit Italy to move into Belarus?

Yeah, not a problem.

@BobbaRossa

2 sub hits, let me know how you want to take casualties, and any OOL if you can, or want to go turn by turn.

Oof, not a good start. 2 tips first. Then CV, CR, CR, DD, BB, fighters last.

We don’t bump in playoffs, especially finals. I need to add it to the league rules.

A player normally doesn’t have control over the timing of when a playoff game is played (other than the first, in Jan 1), in contrast to a regular league game started up when both players want.

There certainly is the possibility of a time out in a playoff game, but it would be weeks (or repeated longer than 72 hour delays without communication) and solely by moderator call and only if the waiting player wants it.

A game as prestigious as a league playoff final game will not be called over by time out unless there are clearly long delay(s).

Thank you for the ruling Gamer! I completely agree that bumping an opponent is inappropriate and would never do so unless someone was enforcing exact letter of the law interpretations for a game. Inflexibility defeats the spirit of fun and competitiveness and you ordered us to have fun!!

On that note, since we are changing the rules mid tournament (with my full support!) I would also like to propose a rules amendment allowing free edits of noncombat moves until the opponent has taken a turn as well as walk-in combats unaffected by dice. This has also been the standard of the league since time immemorial (or at least since 2014 when I joined) and raises the level of competition to an appropriate level for a prestigious game. No gain is made by rigidly punishing last second regrets. I have yet to play a live tournament that didn’t have these allowances as well.

Oh wow, every single hit mattered - the balance is on a razor’s edge, so crazy.

I really wasn’t expecting you to hit Greece - thought the fleet might get sunk though.

I pretty much had to. I made a bad error by not defending Greece and the planes you added dropped the % on Moscow down below 50. An average result from the air strike would have raised the percentage back up to 80 and I feel would have pushed you off. Can’t be afraid of the dice, even when they burn you :P.
