L22 Pejon_88 (X) vs. Gamerman01 (A+15), BM4, game #2


  • Have a nice trip, I’m jealous! I will almost certainly never be blessed with a trip to Europe, and Spain would be one of my favorites to visit, I’m quite sure.


  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 I’m back :)

    How are the other games going?

    Haha, you’ll probably do great in the play-offs.

  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 Yup, every UK unit less for a potential counter-attack is what I need to see.

  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 Agree regarding ME.

    Well spoken! And yes, your R4 was really unfavorable, letting me maybe get a stronghold in Ukraine. Will look at it now.

  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 Yeah it was great! Going from minus Celsius to Swedish summer weather :)

    It’s far for you to go to Europe, I understand that. Have you traveled elsewhere?

  • Permission to hold back 2 mech in Moscow? They were in combat move on Rostov, but with overwhelming force. Made some miscalculation and need them back in Moscow.

  • Ah, I see you had to move the ships if you wanted to get the Panzer to Egypt right now


  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 Indeed! I’m not good enough to anticipate if it was the right move.


  • It wasn’t, but you can afford about 10 more wrong ones :laughing:


  • Losing Egypt early is death against a good player, and I didn’t seem to learn that the last time it happened.

  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 Are you sure? Would’ve been nice to keep a BB etc. but fighting for Egypt is a primary goal for Italy right now, I think. What’s your thoughts?


  • I think you should have sent the naked transport.
    Still, I’m probably doomed with 4 fighters + bomber for them already and just being able to build 3 infantry per turn. I guess all you have to do is take Moscow and Stalingrad and it’s over, I hadn’t even really thought about that yet. I’m doomed
