@FMErwinRommel Couple of minor ncm changes in the edit log
Regarding your question about the tt, you are right that if i suicided a plane to kill it I would need to attack the fleet, but even just attacking with a sub would have been enough to satisfy that demand…however I was unlikely to waste 16ipc points to kill a 7 ipc unit!
Assumed no scramble in england as I had 3 planes to your 1!

Frustrating seeing Eastern Europe wide open except for one unit in W. Ukr and can’t blitz thru Ukr and can’t afford to see all my mobile west. I attacked Ros with an art instead of an inf to give me an edge, to no benefit, as I rolled 0-6 in 3 rounds and you finally hit. But I wiped out defenders on round 1 in Novo. I bet you were yelling and cursing at the computer on Germany’s first round in Persia. Unfortunately for me, the dice turned cold after round 1. Would have been sweet to hit in rounds 2 and 3 and force you to take a bomber instead of your last mech.

@FMErwinRommel yeah it wasnt looking good for a bit…i was tempted to go in light with 3 mechs, but glad I didnt!
Its tricky with russia having germany dance around it with mechs and tanks, but being restricted to moving only 1 square from moscow. You have a big garrison there now though with quite a few mechs of your own so Moscow wont be falling for a bit!
Axis income now exceeding the allies by 19 although some of that is from unholdable NOs so the gap will narrow next turn im sure…axis in a nice place though!

Scramble 3 German fighters from S. Italy > sz97 to defend your faithful ally’s fleet? Also idea of OOL. Offense should give 8 hits.
-
I was pleased that Luftwaffe moved further inland Russia so it had limited target range in Med to counterattack. But discouraged that strong German home fleet could move south if I went after Italy. After great thought, I found a way to use most of the RAF by moving and emptying U.S. CVs to land on. I drained the fighters from London & India and still have fewer UK planes in Med than my opponents have when I play Axis. So finally built new fighters. I still can’t match Japan’s fleet. But U.S. finally got an N.O. and Italy will be neutered. Won’t need a powerful UK fleet once the Med is under control.

@FMErwinRommel yes full scramble…dent bb and cv, subs, dd, crs, cv, bb, ger figs, italian figs…lets hope we go down in valiant glory taking as much as possible!! :hand_with_index_and_middle_fingers_crossed:

Hooray! The British Empire strikes back. But retreats to India. I rolled exactly enough to take out the Italian fleet on round 1. Which tempted me to retreat and save my capital ships. But I didn’t want to leave the Italian tt’s and fighters to continue to pose a threat. Also, taking out the Luftwaffe reduced the threat elsewhere in the Med. Besides, Allies still have the loaded CV’s and rest of U.S. fleet. But not in position. Bat Calc said I’d have 8 units left, and I did.

Gotta say the dice were not perverse for me this time. In Persia, I rolled half the hits expected and you rolled 1-for-1, but I had overwhelming force and it didn’t matter. But in the important sea battle, we each rolled close to average in the combined rounds. Italy did its job before it was crushed decisively by the U.S. and U.K., losing 145 TUV and half (18) of its 36 fighting units. The Allies don’t have enough troops to invade and hold the underbelly of Europe. But at least its not a threat in U.K.'s backyard or to the Med N.O.'s. .

@FMErwinRommel Yes always a relief when rolling goes as expected in a fleet battle…the consequences always seem more sever if things go wrong! My italians went down much quicker than yours unfortunately but they still held the allies up for a while.
A petty revenge by bombing your factory to the max! :smiling_imp:
