18L MrRoboto (Axis+1) vs Farmboy (Allies) BM3

[farmboy]

Note that I made an error in buying units. I had meant to buy 1 more fighter to place in Eastern US rather than save 10 IPCs. Fine if it is too late but I was hoping I could edit that in.

[MrRoboto]

No problem. Have you done that already?

[farmboy]

Not yet but can on my next turn.

@MrRoboto:

I don’t think you’d scramble Gib, right?

Definitely the right choice.

And good move with your German fleet. I thought I had you cornered there and now it looks like I might have given up Gibraltar instead.

[farmboy]

thought I should note again that the 4 ANZAC air are on the same 2 US carriers (Caroline Islands) in the pacific and 1 British air only is on a US carrier (UK)

[MrRoboto]

Thanks man.
But I have to admit, you caused a lot of headache. I really thought I lost my fleet there and was about to go for that 40% battle in the channel - that’s why I tried bombarding the airport. Had it been successful, the attack would have probably been great!

[farmboy]

It was a tough choice to go for that, given the odds. And I figured you would probably feel forced to go for it and i was counting on a good roll. I saw the possibility of the bombing but only after I was finishing the UK turn. Probably had I seen that first, I wouldn’t have gone for it. It was a huge relief that my interceptors succeeded.

I’ll assume you want the subs in the battle here. But since I will need casualties after the first roll we can correct if I’m wrong on that.
