@Gamerman01:

@LuckyLindy:

Interesting beginning.  Thinking about the Allied response now - many options already.

Losing to the battleship in Z2 (or getting diced in Egypt) really hurts - it was a dagger for me against JWW league game.  Decided to kill destroyers to give my subs a better chance of survival.  Maybe I’ll get lucky in Z9.

Tank bid in Russia made me go light in BSt and with fighter.  Gives you a breather at Karelia, but no really juicy counter-attack options.

I’m pretty comfortable with it.

Still to much pressure on KAR for my tastes. :-)

Letting both battleships go, Sumatra, Phillipines, Hong Kong and France…
Not sure if I’m learning from experience or just losin’ my mind

Transport went to Z43 not Z42, the map is right.
