@crockett36 Hard to tell how much of our loss was based on the setup vs our opponents simply being better. I’ll consult with @oysteilo before we open the bidding.

As long as I’m in the tournament and have a few other games going, I would like to hold off on this one until our first one is complete. Then we can go right into this one. I’m guessing that’s fine with you.

No prob. I’m running a lot of games as well.

Oops - I see I forgot to type my buy. Sorry about that - was an accident.
I will re-roll Baltic States after deciding what to buy.

I’ll…… just wait for this one. We’re not in a big hurry anyway.
Need Z12 casualty choice - map attached
If you would like to roll your defense after casualty choices, that’s fine by me (still don’t understand why a couple people on this site don’t like that). If you don’t roll it, that’s fine too. -
Boy I’ve been getting killed in the Atlantic lately. EB took out all UK ships with Ger in our latest game. Its tough seeing your fleet sink to the bottom of the Atlantic without putting up a fight. lol!
I’ll lose the DD.
–---------
Also, I don’t think you have to re-roll BST, you brought in the same attack. I realize I did better in the second battle, just not sure that was necessary. I certainly appreciate the thought and willingness to reroll. I leave that up to you, but I’m fine with the 1 hit.
Interesting open. Don’t remember the last time I had a Germany not do Ukr.

I re-rolled because it is unfair to see the results of that battle before committing to my purchase. I think it’s truer to stick with the 2nd roll, but thanks.

I’ve skipped it at least once before, and with the art in EUk even bringing an infantry and armor from the Med was not going to be enough defense in all 3 territories for my liking. I don’t think I did you any favor by skipping it :-) And I like to question conventional wisdom!

OK, now that was murder. But before Z12 was complete I could have lost a fighter or 2 and you could have had the cruiser left. But after that result, that’s a big swing.
