Well it’s safe to say that was an ABYSMAL turn for the axis.

Battle score for attacker is 0
Battle score for attacker is -11
Battle score for attacker is -1
Battle score for attacker is -7
Battle score for attacker is 2

You went 6 for 6 hits outside of the Karelia 1v1.  And the only 3’s America rolled were both on the UK Sea Zone.

[Gargantua]

Let me know when it’s my turn to get 100% defenses will ya!? :P

[Witt]

I did see. You have been unluckier than me all game.
I can only remember one time when I was really unlucky.
It is possible the Convoy rolls have levelled up somewhat though. I think you have been luckier in those rolls. I think I have tried to hammer you there, to not much effect until now.
It is Italy I am after.

You may have sealed Egypt with German Air too. Nice.
I hope I do not live to regret building that Iraqi Factory.
God knows what I was thinking building an American one in Brazil!
That was a mistake.

I will agree with you there.

I’ve noticed… it’s been hard working keeping them alive - believe me! And it doesn’t help when Yankee cruisers keep blowing my planes out of the sky lol.

Chinese roll dice for 3 infantry in Manchuria, round 2 :  2/3 hits
ANZAC roll dice for 1 infantry in Sumatra, round 2 :  1/1 hits
Chinese roll dice for 1 infantry in Yunnan, round 2 :  1/1 hits
UK_Pacific roll dice for 1 infantry in Shan State, round 2 :  0/1 hits
ANZAC roll dice for 1 artillery and 1 infantry in Celebes, round 2 :  2/2 hits

Your infantry are getting hits at 3x over normal.  You might as well roll all your dice at 5, because that is the hit percentage you are getting.

This is not condusive to victory for the Axis.

My only saving grace was that your subs rolled high on convoy raids this turn.  Subs that wouldn’t exist if my armies weren’t disappearing from the board like they aren’t even there.

[Witt]

I concur and feel your Nip pain. I am loving my fanatical Aussies.
Glad you decided to buy 2 Destroyers this turn. Can only help!

Think you have the breathing space you need now I have backed off.
I think I am out of Trannies too as I bought thy IC instead. Was 2IPCs off last turn.
I still have the Philippines though. I agree the 2 Islands and the 5 Bonus was the better choice(albeit more expensive than expected).

If,  if I do win I will not gloat as you have played a great game and deserve the victory.
I still need to go for it in the Atlantic otherwise we will be stalemated.
You have also closed off England and leave me only Italy and the Med.
Tomorrow morning now.

[Witt]

Damn, that is a lot of income. Good job.
I was worried about losing US fleet and have given you the Med again.

[Gargantua]

Well I am going to attack the US fleet with a 2 acc build as Germany.

It was thought, or capture algeria for the same effect.

The dice are 88% win for Germany, but dice are dice as we have seen…

I focused on the “For Sure” wins on Italy’s turn.
-Airbase Build gets South Africa in German Hands, uncontested “For Sure”
-Transport putting 1 inf 1 aa gun in Egypt, makes it more “For Sure” on defense

2 acc build and all out throw at American Navy… if successful closes the med “for now”,  got to see the dice though…
