@Ghostglider Ok. Finally (3 rounds of nobody hitting!!?), I hit once and killed DD as you desired, but you also hit on the return. So not sure what you want to do 1 v 1.

@simon33 I promise i did not leave Rome open as a trap move…just happened.

@Omni All good. Be glad to play another game some other time when you are free.

@Avner thanks. I thought you were vicariously rooting for the Italians. 56 Ipc economy was the largest I’ve had for the Italians!

@Panther roger

@AldoRaine Ping…

@barnee I agree it is a beautiful board. And I like that it seems to be closer to realistic borders.
That said, It’s an adjustment from the G40 map that I’ve played with for years. Not sure if I want to relearn it. Because although each boundary is faithfully connected in an identical manner as the G40 map, you have to revisit how things connect because they seem different visually, even though they aren’t in game play.

@surfer Thanks for the game, that was quite the entertaining marathon

@BombsAway Thanks. GG. Maybe see you in the playoffs? Cheers, surfer

@surfer thank you sir

@surfer

Yeah, you’re right.

Hey mate.
How are things, are you having great holidays?

Let me know if you have time for a rematch now.

@surfer GG, well played, was fun! I will post the result.

@dawgoneit ok. Enjoyed the game, thanks.

Thank you very much.

With Norway I didnt see all the fighters could land there. I thought next round I conquer Norway back but it costs time and money, my sleep, more alkohol and cigarettes to get it back. Therefore I couldnt attack the russians and I was frightend that you conquer Russia back.

Scramble in sz97?

Yes I felt like I was able to contain Japan for a while but ya tough to match Japan airforce. But with no pressure on Europe I was doomed sooner or later.

@sovietishcat sure. Still want allies? Or maybe just swap sides?
