@discalced GL&HF!
Welcome to your first BM4 game! If there are any questions (rules, tripleA, etc.), please don’t hesitate to ask! (Hopefully I know where to find the answer ;-))
Do you want to scramble?
Does your Sub fight in 106?
2 infantry in Egypt and 2 ipc to Russia.
Here we go with game 3. I would wish you luck, but judging from our other 2 games, you don’t need any more! 8-)

semi rough start there, but not as bad as my start against the desert journalist in the first game I took the axis. his destroyer in Z6 killed my submarine and cruiser AND survived, and his destroyer and cruiser in Z12 wiped out both my fighters and submarine, but at least I killed them as well. Then I lost 3 fighters on J1. Ugly Ugly Ugly. I doubt I’m going to maneuver out of a start that bad, especially in my first Axis attempt!
