I’ll submerge.

@Gamerman01:

We’ll see if you’re Nostradamus

Heh heh…

Keep in mind that I haven’t made any specific predictions as to if you will win or lose, just that this may be a less certain path to victory.  If you want a real prediction, I could paraphrase the Oracle of Delphi’s answer for Croesus of Lydia: If the Germans attack Russia G1, they will destroy a mighty nation!

These round 1 wipe-outs are getting old.  I’m a hair away from ending this game, too.  I don’t mind having some reversals of fortune, but losing multiple 95%+ battles in the very first round gets to be a bit much.

[gamerman01]

Jeez, I had only looked at the Z97 battle and saw I missed everything and figured I had a lot of trouble with the Italians then.  But since you posted that comment, I see you got absolutely ripped everywhere else.  Yeah, it’s unbelievable the transport (and destroyer the first game) in Z96 survived both games

[gamerman01]

I am in the combat movement phase
I bought only a sub and saved 4, but now
I want to buy a mech too
