just looking to whittle them down is the story of my A&A life. everytime someone tries to “whittle down” one of my big stacks, it goes all the way down.

stunningly bad defensive rolling combined with very good offensive rolling. ouch.

If you manage to do the UK by the time I get home, I will do Italy before going to bed

I will probably resign and we can start the bidding for game 3 but let me have a look tomorrow when I can survey the damage on a map.

I have weathered a lot of bad luck lately (in almost every game I am playing) but that was probably a death blow.

No problem at all…I have looked at both Italian fleets and the UK will have a hard time sinking either one. Which will leave open a triple amphibious assault on Gibralter, Algeria, and the UK. If they are successful, the Axis will have the 15 VCs required for victory and the Americans have no troops close enough to liberate any of them.
You may start the bidding if you like. We can even start the next game if you wish to continue this one.

Nope…did not even realize this. I knew they could not move into a hostile sea zone and load, but I did not think it applied to when they were already there. Seems bogus to me, but the rulebook states cannot load in a hostile SZ…but hey, I got all the patience in the world…only a matter of time.

this one’s over - post your win. will have to review to see how i got crushed so bad, but knowing me, i probably got diced hard with russia early and often…
game 3? i will start the bidding at 12, i think the allies need well more than most people give em. i have been trying to play a bunch of games with the allies, so i have been taking the bids too low. if you want em for 11, i’ll PROBABLY give em to ya… :wink:
-
ha, i didn’t have to look beyond the fantastic G1, J1, and disastrous UK2 to see the story of this one… pretty much decided early.
