Poor start for Brit.  Ger subs rolled extremely well, 2 of 3 rolled a one.  While my dd & ftr missed in sz124.  Since the sub couldn’t hit my plane, the dd had to take the hit and thus the ftr could no longer attack the sub without the dd.  My BB didn’t get hit, but will be sunk on Ger’s turn.

[suprise attack]

THE HOOD GOES DOWN!!!

[FMErwinRommel]

I was looking at the league game between Dawg axis & S.A. allies.  Interesting, opening turn, sz111, Brit scrambled and came down to each side had its BB left and they sank each other.  Is that 2nd Ed or BM3?

2nd Ed
S.A. and i have been best friends for over 40 years
we’ve played A&A for a long time so we kind of no what each others habbits are
so i’m not sure if this can be an example of how we play others.
experiments happen.

[suprise attack]

I wonder how many games its been

[FMErwinRommel]

Is it a 2nd Ed or BM3 game?  What is the ranking level order for triplea?  Is battleship or heavy bomber higher and what is the highest?  I’d be interested in playing a one-on-one league game (best of 3 game series) with any of you.  Playing against a more experienced player would give me valuable experience.  Although playing against me might lower your PPG.

It always bothers me not to garrison Gibraltar T1, but I didn’t want to lose another tt and I couldn’t spare ftrs on turn 1 to offset potential bombardment.  Italy cleared the Med of allied ships, but allies were lucky to score hits in each battle, reducing Italian navy.  I’ve never seen Italy take Bulg.  And Italy’s opening is certainly aggressive against Rus.
Italy should have sent some units towards Rus in the first game.  Italy has positioned its navy for some possibly interesting moves, which is why the french had to sink the unguarded tt.  Brit Africa appears secure, allowing it to also pursue some interesting paths.

[FMErwinRommel]

Axis: Brit ftr in Burma didn’t move during NCM.  Do you mind editing it on Ger turn to move from Burma to India?  No combat occurred in the area since UKP’s turn.

Perfect attacks by the Germans.  No losses!

[Gargantua]

@Desert_Admiral:

Perfect attacks by the Germans.  No losses!

Except for the Attack in Yugoslavia.

Also - you made the assumption my sub would submerge in Sz125; with no other Attack we’d present, - $5 NO on the line, and a British transport, it would not.

D
Rolls: 1@1; Total Hits: 01@1: (6)

And if that was not a hit we would have multiple rounds until there was a clear winner!

Attacker
Rolls: 10@2; Total Hits: 410@2: (5, 2, 2, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 1, 2)

Defender
Rolls: 10@1; Total Hits: 210@1: (5, 6, 1, 4, 3, 1, 2, 5, 5, 6)

[Desert_Admiral]

What was the second round of rolls?

[FMErwinRommel]

Well, HMS Hood didn’t go up or down, just danced a jig sideways.  I’ve got to say the Euro Axis have been focused on the goal of KRF and have not been sidetracked even to take out the Brit BB.  Commendable.  His Majesty King George VI thanks you.  I knew Ger could easily retake Nor and would bomb Fin, but Brit had to make the effort regarding Nor.
