L17 G40 Bal. Mod wheatbeer (Axis) vs Karl7 (Allies)

[Karl7]

@wheatbeer:

So, I got one miracle.

Maybe I should attempt Sea Lion with 1 inf & 1 art?  :lol:

Unless you suffer another dice catastrophe in Egypt or Rome, this is still game over.

yeah, the allies are moving in… but after Moscow, maybe the dice gods are with you?!?!?

You MUST defeat me Karl!

Surely the dice gods must be exhausted after expending that much energy and can’t continue to indulge in such wanton favoritism.

note sure why that tank didn’t offload…  :-P

So, I think the allies are pretty secure right now…  you can’t get back Egypt and don’t think you’ll get London…

If you want to try, totally ready to see if you can do it.

ALthough the US has got 5 ftrs, 4 inf ready to land to reinforce UK.

[wheatbeer]

I agree with that assessment.

I was tempted to just surrender on Italy’s turn, but I thought it would be anticlimactic.

I surrender sir. Well played.

@wheatbeer:

yeah GG, I think the allies have an edge in BM… maybe worth a 6 bid for Axis.
