well, i kinda rushed that move and screwed up…  was going to take phi and took a loaded transport to the zone.  since i took it in first, it wouldn’t let me unload.  so then i did the rest of my combat moves, and forgot i was going to unload in phi  :roll:

if you don’t mind, i put the 2 inf back in fic and the trn in z36.

since your destroyer hit me in 42, you now have pretty decent odds on my fleet.  guess we will be rolling some big dice!

[boldfresh]

just remembered you have a re-roll in your back pocket too… double ouch for me.

[Cow]

Stalin you probably sink japan at java with anzac. 10% you get em with USA. You may as well blast it.

[Cow]

Actually hard to say true odds, considering you can save your subs over dds and win that way.

[Cow]

plus if you go in just to tilt carriers, you can retreat fine and anzac can clear it up.

[boldfresh]

Cow, stay out of our game please, we are having a lot of fun and once again, even after i have asked you many times nicely not to come into my threads and comment on strategy, you have done it yet again.

why don’t you concentrate on planning in our ANZAC game - you are currently on course to lose there BADLY, which is not making me very happy - i was hoping for a good game.  :|

[Stalingradski]

Bold - no worries on guys back in F Indo. In my mind we’re at the table, and those are things that can be taken back in a heartbeat.

I’ll have to look at the map - I’m not a hasty player, so if I don’t like the odds, I won’t do it.

The reroll is definitely a factor, though.

What an intersting game - the biggest and most indomitable Atlantic fleet/infrastructure setup I’ve had to deal with in Spain/SZ91 (poised to wreck S America and the guts of Africa), and the chance to knock Japan out of the water in the pacific. This is a crazy game…

[Stalingradski]

Attacking fleet with all US has to send… odds are a US win with 2 units left over.

Do you want me to run max defense for you, since you can land fighters on Java? Or do you want to choose OOL? Or do you have a particular way to peel off casualties?

[boldfresh]

go ahead and roll round by round, i’m online and can give you quick answers.
