2011 League Championship - Gamerman (1) vs. Zhukov (2)

[gamerman01]

@Gamerman01:

:? Now I see you also have too many subs in 36.  You took 2 to 37 and one sunk, leaving you with 5, not 6.

Never mind - I see it was a sub going from 62 to 36 that you did type and I overlooked.

[Zhukov44]

Good catch.  That inf got lost in the confusion (was using laptop).  Ncmed to Bur.

I will mobilize a tank in fic (instead of Japan) and a tpt in 61 (instead of 36).

Thanks - it looks fine now

[gamerman01]

One more thing I had noticed and forgot to mention - you saved 2, so you have 54.  Perhaps you were thinking of Global carrier costs of 16 instead of 14?

Well at least you get something to cheer about -
A bomber desperately defending South Africa to keep the UK from getting another NO is kind of the story of this game.  (I just mean the Axis getting off on the wrong foot)
I have to remember your failed attempt to take the Carolines, although this is much more dramatic
Much rather have snake eyes on the bombing damage than the AA fire…

Yes that was a lucky break.  Just killing the 2 tpts alone was not worth the sacrifice of the bomber.  But given my overall situation I thought it was worth risking the 1-1 with the tank to prevent the NO, and that totally worked out.

Yeah, I know.  Should have been over with the American assault, but that’s the fun of dice games

Absolutely - I was not questioning your decision.  When you’re way behind, you have to take chances to try and get back in.

Another South Africa
If I sink your transports in 62 it would have been impossible to get the island NO, but now it’s still possible…  :-P

I think I’m in such a great position it won’t matter, but those 2 NO battles certainly slow my momentum

Surely you will take max defense in Z62.  If you survive, I’ll let you pick your survivors - even a carrier
This game has been going way too slow - it was not easy to recapture my strategy here tonight.
