Surfer (Allies +6) vs. Max332 (Axis) BM3 LL no Tech

[max334]

WTF… damn, I just gave you the german fleet.

take the bomber in Iraq

[max334]

the plan was for the fleet to park in sz125 not 112, that’s why I took Scotland so the bombers couldn’t reach

[surfer]

Before battle commences. I have 4 changes to make

1. American fighter that I put in WUS, I’d like to put in EUS
2. American tank blitz to Belgian Congo vice Ethiopia
3. Change the British buy to 1DD 1 Ftr 3 Mech Inf 1 sub
4. British attack Italian DD vice German one.

[surfer]

Re German fleet. Ah…Quite honestly, I’m so pissed about the British straits thing, I’d say you keep your fleet and I get the American move do over.

[surfer]

I wasn’t expecting to have the Germans gift wrapped…

[max334]

yes…thats very good of you. Yes, I made a big blunder. If you want you can do the whole turn over…start fresh with the German fleet in sz128.

[surfer]

Ok. I assume you meant SZ125 vice 128.

[surfer]

There is a fly in the ointment for that plan. You placed 1 DD + 3 subs in SZ112. Where do you want to place them?

[surfer]

The subs don’t really matter as I cant attack them. I’m going to assume the DD goes SZ113 to stay alive.

[max334]

yes, sorry sz125 and dd to 113.

[max334]

subs can stay in 112

Scramble to protect Italian fleet?

BTW, this is one of the most complicated moves I’ve had to make (twice…)

[surfer]

Also, I’ll be attacking Iraq on British turn. Same way. Any change on OOL?

[max334]

…I’m flabbergasted, so the fighters are allowed even though I have blockers???

[surfer]

Sure, I’m wiping (or will attempt to) them out.
As long as I could recover them on my non combat move, or from a build of CV, it’s not a “kamikazi” attack.

[max334]

ok…didn’t understand that, but still better than losing the German fleet.
I’ll scramble the Italian ftrs and yes take the bomber in Iraq assuming same attack.
I knew those bombers would be trouble :(
