That was a very lucky battle for you. 24% and then win so big? … could be a game decider. I’ll have to see if I can continue after this.

[Narses]

Yes, it was! The last two battle rounds were awesome. I thought, I could weaken your troops and finally make them with uk, but so, it’s perfect and I still have my fighters! Very lucky and a big loss of your Luftwaffe in this round totally! Turkey with Italy was also an expensive loss) After some really bad battles at sea, I hope, now it will continue luckier for the allies!

[Narses]

But I had 29 % with the fighters and even 1 % draw, so I thought: Risky, but with UK possible and worth (very expensive troops). And it was my last chance on this front. Each round, you would had have been mightier. Last time, I calculated on this kind, I had better chances in the mediterrean sea, but lost all. But now, I’m happy!

[Narses]

Hello, Arathorn?

Do you give up or do we continue?

[arathorn]

I concede at this point. You managed to turn it back, and it’s not looking good for the Axis now.
Dice changed the scale the game in end.
It was a new strategy, and I learned a lot from it.
It seem to work about 50/50.

Well played!

Are you soon ready for League Matches?

[Narses]

Thx,

it was difficult for the Allies with this strong-economic Germany and also strong Italy, though russia 'cause this strategy is quite strong. But if Germany got Turkey/Iraq and hold it with factories, it’s hard for russia to hold this third front and UK Pacific will have a second front too. I think, for this Strategy, it’s neccessary to have a strong Italy and an europe-desinterested US-Player. Of course, Japan has a hard stand, because it has to wait till T3 to begin it’s imperial claims. Even with an desinterested Pacific-US like me, strong Anzac and UK Pacific, China and intervenating russia gave Japan a hard continental front. But you gave me some new impulses for my strategy-thinking of Axis-play and this is the most interesting point of this game. I never had thought, it’s possible to hold the western front against US and UK after invading spain, but you builded up a well defence and if you had not such a pretty bad luck while Spain-Invasion, which costs a lot, who knows…? I have to try it out against my brother next time ;-)

The second point: I don’t think, I’m able to play some League Matches at moment, perhaps later in the year, when I do not have as lot other things to do (my spouse also thinks, I’m spending more time with A&A then with her, my second Trouble-front ;-) ) But when I’m able to play, I would enjoy to spot out for it!

Well and innovative played!
