@Jeff28:

http://www.wizards.com/avalonhill/rules/A&A_Europe_1940_2ndEd_Rulebook_LR.pdf

There’s a link to the rules if it helps. Page 18 talks about interceptors.

I select my losses and you select yours, would take the fig or tac and the strategic bombing wouldn’t stop.

–Jeff

thanks for this….I will pass on the intercept

[666]

It looks like I didn’t plan at all for this….NOT GOOD!

it seems a bit “all or nothing” for germany though. I haven’t actually gotten through one full game as the allies. Have you ever experienced germany taking london on T3 and not winning as the axis or the reverse, G get’s diced and doesn’t take London but somehow pulls out a victory later?

[Jeff28]

yes to Germ taking London and stalling in Russia.

No to missing and getting diced.

If I chicken out, could always go Karelia or something.

@Jeff28:

–Jeff

A bit? one hit for 11 inf @ 2 and two fgt defensive rolls @ 4? I think the avg should have been 5 hits.

[666]

my oversights or bad play, coupled with getting “diced”, equals a very short game!

@Jeff28:

–Jeff

you are feeling that confident in taking London huh? I must say I am very impressed with some of the moves, forethought and general decisions/strategy you have employed this game. You certainly seem to be making the most of my poor decisions!

The naval base on the JPN island is one example. Makes perfect long term sense not that this seems to be a “long” game. I need to give much more thought to my decisions and play.
