SHOO CHINA STACK SHOO. GET AWAY FROM MY VICTORY CITIES.

[boldfresh]

Ready for game 2?

[boldfresh]

Your prized japan is a little pussycat.

[boldfresh]

and you shouldn’t be using the word “victory” in this thread.  :lol:

[boldfresh]

looks like it’s time for china to throw herself on the sword for the good of the greater cause.

[boldfresh]

if you’d rather lose aircraft in kwangsi go ahead and change em out.  you were going to kill me in 2 rounds regardless and i don’t care what you lose.

your PERFECT round of hits on airstrikes of your ground units remains intact.  i’m so glad no one could ever accuse me of getting lucky in this game and yet you are getting CRUSHED.

[boldfresh]

the chinese came up on the short end.  i can never get lucky in a spot like that and take out a few EXTRA dudes  :lol:  good chance the chinese get into your aircraft there, possibly dramatically.  not that you made a bad move, it’s a chance you had to take with times being so desperate.  :-D

moscow will NEVER fall.  USA dominates the pacific.  USA dominates the Med.  London will never fall.  hawaii will never fall.  sydney will never fall.  you won’t hold calcutta much longer.  what do the axis have going for them?    take your desperation shot on my pacific fleet and let’s get on to game 2.

[Cow]

Holy Cow you just suicide all your China units…

[boldfresh]

i know you’re not much of a strategy guy cow, despite your copious “playbook” writings.  the chinese are useless to me at this point, they performed their function just fine already.  i thought why not take a chance at whittling your airforce, that’s one thing the chinese can still possibly do if they get a little luck.  alas, luck was not with the hapless chinese, but bad luck just makes a win all that much sweeter.  :-D
