[boldfresh]

seriously, same exact thing as last game. �ridiculous.

with tiny little gibraltar, i just forgot to walk in with the german infantry. � :roll:

it’s all yours good game karl.

that was just a missed walkin.  you can thank your dudes for hitting.  if they hadn’t i couldn’t have forgotten the walkin.

good game.

you can stop now.

[boldfresh]

i mean, if you’re gonna grab the win like that, then i don’t really wanna continue.

that is just silly.

post your win, i just play too fast and sloppy with you.

[boldfresh]

have been FAR too busy IRL and playing far too many games.  was really just messing around with an all-in to europe strategy with you, and i have decided i don’t like it.  :lol:

[Karl7]

I pulled a BS move on you.  I know it.

BUT, I really doubt you would have been able to take USSR.  If you moved in, the allies would have been able to fly over 20+ fighters.

As for taking Italy, as I say, it’s BS, but at this stage in the game I think it’s valid.  Vigilance at this stage is as critical as strategy I think.  I sweated rounds trying to make sure you couldn’t pull a fast one on the UK.

Good game.  Not sure the all in Europe thing works, but it was interesting.

[boldfresh]

your infantry and destroyers pounded me all game on defense.  it was fitting that the dudes hitting in gibraltar left the straight open.

obviously i just forgot a walkin, but that’s always a good lesson for when a game matters.

nice work.

[boldfresh]

game kinda sucked actually.  don’t remember why i decided to rush to europe - probably frustrated with the terrible dice run i’ve been on.  :lol:

[boldfresh]

you really hit the jackpot though, playing me 2 extremely fast games at a time that i’m extremely sleep deprived and extremely busy IRL.  it is fun sometimes though to try some stupid crazy moves.  :lol:

[Karl7]

I will say this, I think the winning move was to throwing those many US/UK troops into the western Europe meat grinder.  I lost tons of stuff but bought time for the USSR to build up.

You made Europe virtually impenetrable!  I was impressed.  The US would have cracked it next turn though.  But like I said, I do not think you could have cracked the USSR with the massive allied ftrs regardless.

I will run away now, knowing I got 2 games against the best player on the boards!

Don’t worry, come Nov 1, I am sure you will hunt me down and kill me like the dirty dog I am.
