G40 A2 game: Lemming vs Alsch91

[Alsch91]

@Lemming:

Your soviet moves are scary good. Prob fall flat on my face and lose Berlin. But what the heck, worth a try  :-)
Anyway, you proved your point that sea lion can be made too painful. between Egypt and London, guess I’d rather lose Egypt any day. Thanks for showing me how to defend Sea Lion well. A key deterrent is an offensive Soviet stance too, which is clear from your purchases.

By the way, thanks.  :lol:
It’s pretty typical for Russia to be on the offense for a round or two if Germany transports away a significant part of its army.  And yes, UK can make Sealion quite painful, and more or less stop a G3 Sealion.  However, if Germany commits to a G4 Sealion, then UK really can’t stop it.  The payoff is that Russia is even scarier.

You wanna do France? 2Inf in Alg, so don’t think you want to attack Mor.

Lem vs Alsch R4.AAM

[Lemming]

Happens sometimes. Which is why I didn’t want to tempt luck in z101. Abit of much needed reprieve for Germany to consolidate…

[Alsch91]

Yeah.  Not a big deal but kinda annoying.  :-)

By the way,

1Art, 1Arm Alx >> Egy
2Inf, 1Art Sud >> Egy
with bombard 1BB 2Cru

You can’t bombard unless transports are being used in the attack.
Your land units ended up killing the infantry, so it doesn’t matter here.
But just letting you know.

[Alsch91]

Missed moving the Russian sub, and edited a couple little NOs.
