13L G40 wheatbeer (Axis) vs Cow (Allies +10)

[Cow]

So yeah, there you go, best crack you can get at egypt.

[Cow]

If you fail, I got a bunch of air in range to hold it down. :)

[Cow]

I will lose the bomber first. OOL for best defense! Unless you totally wiff. Totally wiff means 0-2 hits only.

[wheatbeer]

@Cow:

mmm, that is why I did not scramble. If I win, I get freebie transport nom nom nom.

I must not be bitter, because that made me laugh  :-D

I am just going to stack it again! You can come kill it again.

[Cow]

Oh yeah. USA is going to bomb west germany’s airfield. When my turn comes will you intercept with 1 fighter?

[Cow]

It will happen I won’t change my mind.

[Cow]

That was a very interesting move from you. That takes real dedication to Egypt.

I got to do a full atlantic buy thing now. Sigh.

@Cow:

Yup.

@Cow:

That was a very interesting move from you. That takes real dedication to Egypt.

I got to do a full atlantic buy thing now. Sigh.

I’ve had better luck with this technique in the past … if I’d over-performed rather than under-performed, you’d have more cause to sigh  :lol:

No time for Japan tonight.

[Cow]

I have done this too, sometimes it goes great, sometimes it goes real bad, rarely does it go so so. This time it went so so.

I got a second big stack for egypt coming. I will make you fight for it. Keeps Russia alive longer.

[Cow]

Basically cashing in my income advantage for the round to stall you in Egypt.

Who knows you might go for something else.

Pacific looks like a Japan headache. I am not sure where you are going with it. India and the burma road is a fortress.

[Cow]

I did karelia with uk in mind dropping 4 guys on norway and then going nuts on norway… I just realized that an airbase on alexandria and Italy has the income for it to roast my ships.

Those bombers on alexandria with an airbase on it could reach so many things!

Russia did zero attacks. May I change it?

again no attacks. same stuff except the north stuff.
~
I do not know what the rules are for changing a turn before opponent goes when no dice is rolled… ie all posts final?
~
I guess the nice thing about finland would be that it forces germany to do something about it, maybe ease pressure off of Egypt as a sacrifice. so I can keep shoving and flying units on it.

I will have to throw my naval into the med either way since the bombers have my number.
