ok no rush, just was making sure there was no confusion. cuz I saw your last post and it confused me a little, by making me think maybe you were waiting on me for something. I see you were just making your edit explicit. anyway take your time and think it thru, I know how Europe can get complicated.

Aaah. Yeah, sorry about the confusion! I just wanted to make the edit explicit and recorded, before posting the G5 move. I’m negotiating with myself currently between two options… And I can be a tough negotiator! Haha

[axis-dominion]

no problem, negotiate away!

in case you negotiate yourself into hitting Bryansk, i may not wanna shed all my aa guns in the first round of combat, depending on how the attacking roll goes. so prompt me first. thanks!

It was a third option, but I negotiated real hard for and against, and the against side won. haha! It might still happen, but I don’t like the odds…. lol

I started the turn, but need to wrap it up later. wifer calling

also, I could’ve taken italy easily. I’m going to overlook it this time, since you’re still fairly new to bm.

let’s see if you can spot the flaw. no need to correct, like I said I’m just going to let it slide this time.

I see it. US takes Southern France, builds AB in Normandy, and UK uses Marine + 4 ftrs to take it. I saw the Marine earlier, and was going to place a German plane or two there, but forgot. I was thinking of the AB + 4 ftrs in terms of Denmark (U.S.) + Germany (UK) combo, but didn’t see it in terms of Southern Italy.

Thank you!
