Turn Complete - French

[seth4god]

I started to do my turn, but I would like to know which transport those Frenchies are on.

[seth4god]

I rolled for tech and missed, I’ve saved the file so it won’t reroll.

[gamerman01]

@Gamerman01:

Non Combat Move - French
            COMMENT: 2 FR INF on 1 USA TP in 110

It’s also in the History, in the non-combat section  :-)

If you don’t save after a tech roll it’s OK - just edit IPC’s on hand down by 5 when you reload

[gamerman01]

Also, you can go to “View -> Show comment log”

That’s where you can enter your own game comments, like to clarify what units are on transports or carriers

[seth4god]

Sorry, I thought it was your turn. I remember thinking through what I was going to do depending on which transport those Frenchies were on and I guess I just assumed I’d done Germany.  :roll:

[gamerman01]

Was kinda wondering!

It’s fine - I really appreciate the brisk pace you’ve been keeping - has been fun - looking forward to it being my turn again  :-)

[seth4god]

I’ve never really used the comment log before . . . :-D

[gamerman01]

Yeah, I figured you hadn’t since you didn’t see mine…

It’s vital for the ground units on transports issue… helps the owning player a lot too

[seth4god]

Yeah I know, it must’ve been frustrating to see my other games get played pretty rapidly with no movement in this game. My bad and I’ll be taking Germany’s turn now.

And yeah, I move rapidly . . . and that’s probably my biggest weakness. I’m a lot better face to face when I can see everything and think things through. You caught my Japanese twice this game on simple mistakes that exposed quite a bit of my hardware. Time to focus and try to salvage this.

[gamerman01]

@seththenewb:

No!  Not at all!  It hasn’t even been 48 hours.  I only noticed you move on one other game - and that doesn’t bother me at all anyway.  Thanks for your consideration, though, I appreciate that.

[seth4god]

I’m going to strat bomb Russia, intercept? 3 vs 2 if you do.

I still need to figure out what else Germany’s doing. But that much I know. So no worries if you want to wait and see all what I’m doing.

I’m pretty meticulous as you can probably already tell, and that’s a big reason for my success……
That, and a lot of chess experience  :-)
Also, I’m an expert with numbers and statistics…  :-)

[gamerman01]

That’s a tough decision

Was going to fly UK air up there but turned out that probably wasn’t the best thing to do…

I will intercept with both… gotta try and stop those +2s…
plus your German bombers can’t shoot worth crap  :evil:

All whiffs on the air battle and ack ack phase of that battle. My bombers might not be great at shooting your air down, but they sure did do a number on your factory.  :evil:
