[Karl7]

Your dice are unstoppable.  I almost hit nothing that whole round.

[seth4god]

Ok, no doubt about it. Axis started strong with some decent/good die in all the battles so far. I’m getting paranoid now .  . . and that doesn’t begin to describe my inner turmoil when I went to roll the Hawaii SZ battle. I was thinking geez, the dice have to even out at some point and what if this is the battle?

I was hoping you’d scramble the air. It’s why I saved 3 ship’s movements for noncom besides the carriers and the air I didn’t move in Korea and/or Japan.

@Karl7:

Yeah, and Germany had some good battles too. I didn’t take Baltic States, but that was the only one that I haven’t won so far this game.

FYI, I’ll be camping this weekend. We head out at 5 am tomorrow, so I won’t be posting Fri-Sun and maybe even into Monday as well. Depends on when we get back Monday and how tired I am.

Scamble 97?

I’ll be gone to this weekend.  BUt I am around all night tonight.

If you dice keep going the way they’ve been going this could be a super short game.  :wink:

[Karl7]

Also, edited the US placement, forgot to plunk one of the dd’s off the Eastern US>

[seth4god]

NP as for the edit. I don’t mind small little edits that don’t affect combat or weren’t affected by a previous move from the opposite side.

And no scramble.

[Karl7]

whoops, need to make one change to CM – nothing about 97 – I just forgot to realize you could scramble to block my landing an infantry in Denmark so I wil abandone that…  :roll:

[seth4god]

hehe, I wasn’t going to say anything about that. And I’ve done that twice by trying to grab Korea in two different face to face games. I lost 2 transports, 2inf, and an art by failing to account for scramblers  :roll:

At least I didn’t do that twice in the same game  :-D
