13L G40 wheatbeer (Axis) vs Gamerman01 (Allies +10)

[wheatbeer]

Worse than expected in Szechwan … seemed like the right thing to do though.

[wheatbeer]

I’ll be out of town this weekend, back sometime Monday.

If I have internet access then I’ll keep an eye out for OOL, scramble, kamikaze, etc. orders.

[gamerman01]

@wheatbeer:

Worse than expected in Szechwan … seemed like the right thing to do though.

I was worried about that - saw it coming but I think it’s the wrong thing to do to retreat to 2 spaces away from Yunnan…

[gamerman01]

@wheatbeer:

Worse than expected in Szechwan

Now I’ve looked at it -

A lot worse than median… I think it’s bottom 15-20%, and all air against infantry that is very costly
Turns out changing the artillery to infantry was very significant…  :-D
Sorry for the disappointment - I was just hoping I wouldn’t be on the bottom 20% myself.

I know it’s hindsight, but you probably shouldn’t have gone a second round.  One round was sufficient to keep the Chinese from being able to attack Yunnan…  But I guess you were probably hoping to only lose 1 more aircraft and knock out the tigers - I probably would have done the same?

[gamerman01]

Not sure when I’ll get to playing this next turn…  haven’t forgotten it

[wheatbeer]

No worries

[gamerman01]

OK, this one’s next

Just want you to know I don’t just take the default casualty choice without thinking and without asking…

I am very sure I chose the casualties in Alex the way you would have - let me know if I’m wrong
Oh, you can certainly change the art to a mech if you want
You dodged a serious bullet…  :-)
Still, you’re in trouble…  :|
