is the ftr left or a damaged BB?

need to know to decide if I will press attack.

[M7574]

Da Furor iz pleazed with zee attack.  Orders are for the High Seas Fleet to withdraw to Brest.  The Bismarck and her battlegroup limp towards the safety of their french port while the Prince of Wales and Hood lie on the bottom of the ocean floor.  Seig Heil!!!

[Moulinex]

That’s fine, its what I would have chosen.

[M7574]

the Nelson Battleship Group, crippled from her encounter with the High Seas Fleet, is the only thing left that floats between Western Europe and Great Britain.  The RAF has crumbled.  Panic runs rampant in the British Isles……

[M7574]

Doesn’t Egypt start with two ANZAC inf?

[Moulinex]

Rub it in why dontcha’  :-D  Someday the dice will turn…

You’re right about ANZAC, there should be another inf there.

Anchovy, during the Russian turn can you add it in?

You’d better hope the dice DON’T turn.  My rolls have been about ave.  You guy’s defense rolls were about 1 hit short in the two big naval skirmishes, but extraordinary in France.  I lost 16 ground forces to take the three french tt’s.  And I brought what seemed to be plenty of overkill. Ha!  Not to be.  French were dug in.  I’ll admit that sz109 was a fortuitous straef.  Always nice to leave just one unit then pull back :-P

[M7574]

There appears to be an extra rtl in Egypt.  Maybe that was where the missing ANZAC guy went.

Right now German thinktanks are hard at work planning an efficient way to salvage T-34 scrap into usable war materials for the Whermacht.  :evil:

beep.beep.beep……Urgent message to Tojo…  Intelligence reports indicate Russian force build-up in the SFE on the Manchurian Border…

General Tojo presses his campaign in China, Meanwhile Admiral Yamamoto gathers his forces.
