  • Hey wondering if you’ll allow me to undo the Dow on Russia. Nothing to do with any dice rolled during Italy. Just reconsidered it, and feel I’d rather not have done that.

  • I redid the turn minus the dow on Russia. Greece result ended up same, so no edit was required.

    I g2g to a soccer game, so if in case you don’t allow, then just use the original post with the dow.

    I’m away from the computer too but sounds fine. Only difference I can see is if you fail to take London.


  • Oh and if I forgot to send my guys to Alexandria, plz edit them there from Tobruk.

    Haven’t done a UK DOW for ages! Let’s see how this goes. Very interesting! Haven’t made an attempt at a Sea Lion recovery like this before.

    Havent looked super closely, but problem with UK DOW is that now germany doesnt have to take London G3, he can wait till G4 and Japan still gets to accomplish something in the pacific. If you dont DOW with UK, then japan has to sit idly on J3 if germany doesnt want to deal with US being at war on US3.

    I havent done much with sea lion in a long time but seems like axis can definitely wait on things now and get a free turn. We will see if AD takes down london but my guess is he waits now.

  • '19

    And J3 is really easy when you can ignore US (even if you have mostly abandoned pacific). But again I guess you will find out soon enough.

    @ksmckay That we will. I suspect you might be wrong though. If the Axis delay attacking London, the allies have another turn to build up in preparation of the Axis onslaught. I’m actually virtually certain that Japan will DOW on USA anyway because it doesn’t want to give me the 7IPCs for The Philippines.

    yah I was planning a G4 SL from the beginning, since I didn’t want to accept even a 96%ish odds with a much lower expected average score. and your doing a uk dow on Japan just made that decision all that much easier.

    you should have picked up on this based on how I withheld a second wave of German forces from stepping to the Russian front.
