Just depressing

[wheatbeer]

Had planned to strafe and save my planes

[gamerman01]

Man alive…

Sorry to see that - I mean, everybody wants above average luck, but not THAT far above…
We’ll see how the German strafes go, I guess…

[gamerman01]

You were probably planning to land one on Holland, so now you can’t drill the loaded transport either?

Man, that UK1/I1 combo will be nearly impossible to overcome unless some extreme luck comes your way soon…

Saw right after getting lucky in Holland, that you can still sink the loaded transport - you don’t need Holland at all, I guess…

But the way this is going since game 2, you might worry about getting shot down by the transport

[wheatbeer]

landing in Algeria takes away options for G3, so I really wanted Holland  :|
