I assume he is attacking your usa fleet, he has subs and now he has air in range with a place to land.

[Cow]

kind of gives germany a bit of incentive to buy naval.

[Jeff28]

I hate all these damn Italian can openers, lost my fleet in 91 in games 2 or 3 times now.

[boldfresh]

@Cow:

cow, as always i have no idea what you are talking about.  yeah he can get a few planes there, but it’s an attack i was prepared for, even inviting.  maybe i’m missing something and zhukov will teach me a new trick, so either way i win!  :lol:

[boldfresh]

there is only 1 thing zhukov could be thinking that would make sense to me, and i’m prepared for that too.  i’m actually hoping he knows something i don’t.  :?

[boldfresh]

@Jeff28:

I hate all these damn Italian can openers, lost my fleet in 91 in games 2 or 3 times now.

nothing to fear from italian can openers jeff - you just gotta be ready for them.

[boldfresh]

clearly zhuk has his entire G3 carefully planned.  when you are ready
to fire zhuk, please post your move summary and wait for me to reply before rolling
any dice.  just to be safe.  :wink:

[boldfresh]

remember, just because tripleA allows something doesn’t mean it’s
legal.

[boldfresh]

oh, yeah his w german air can get there…  i didn’t calculate the route correctly.  nevertheless, i invite that attack.  bring it zhuk, you are due for some cold dice!  :wink:

[Cow]

10v8 with bigger dice and a transport kill to pick up. I like it.

[boldfresh]

@Cow:

10v8 with bigger dice and a transport kill to pick up. I like it.

i like it more than you like it cow, trust me.  course if he clears my fleet with minimal losses, he’ll look like a genius and so far his dice have been white hot so it could be a great move…  :-)

[boldfresh]

big early fleet battles are REALLY dicey.  which usually is not good for me.  but you just never know…  :wink:
