You scored 3 hits, I sacrificed 2 CC and assigned 1 hit to my BB.

I continued the battle and scored 1 hit. How should I assign it?

Ozymandiac

Hi Cap,

What is your preferred OOL for the battle in SZ14? What happened so far:

Italy purchased 5 inf
Italy made a combat move into Libya with 4 inf and 1 art
Italy made a combat move into SZ14 with 2 CC, 1 BB and 2 fig
Italy started rolling dice in SZ14, and scored 4 hits.

Ozy.

No worries. I don’t think I would have played Italy differently with/without the edit.

@hansworst You know me too well.

Have a good game, all.

Ozymandiac

@the_good_captain And a good game to you, too!

In the games I have played, Axis seem to have the advantage. So my compliments for keeping the Allies in play for as long as you did.

With the Axis having advantage (in our games) it’s up to Allies to try different new strategies. We did try the Indian factory strategy a couple of times, but I discarded it as unlikely to succeed. However, this game has given me hope that there is a variation out there that can improve the Allies’ odds of winning.

I don’t think I’m up for another game just now. I want to spend more time on other stuff at the moment. So feel free to start a new game without me.
