Wittmann (Allies) + Rus bmb vs Gargantua (Axis) G40

[Gargantua]

It’s your sub in Sz42 that’s the problem, and your build with India. If I park in Sz42, my force can be overwhelmed and destroyed!

Leaving only the INDIANS with a navy in the pacific!  Unacceptable!

[Witt]

I did not like running from your Panzer in Africa, but I fear things are coming to a head in the Middle East/Egypt.
You might be the richest ever by turn’s end. Annoying.

I like the sound of that. Can we give that a try?
Pacific is getting rather bare, navy wise.

[Gargantua]

I look forward to your Russian move.

You cannot be allowed to achieve victory!

[Witt]

You are too fast. I am trying to get drunk on my day off, not beat you at your own game.

[Gargantua]

Hahaha,

Get drunk then!

Or… bring the battle to me!  You are still doing very well, though making some strange moves. (Why did you retreat in the far east! You should have attacked my 1 inf 1 art!)

As for the complex’s in the middle east… I thought the ANZAC one was a joke… but you have maintained putting pieces there, and now it’s a big problem.

And with a russian one to support it… AND a massive allied fleet coming my way.  Italy has some big problems to solve fast.

[Witt]

I notice you bought a few Destroyers this turn. Scared?
I cannot afford to lose those 14 Inf and would rather bring you closer to my heartlands. I feel sorry for your slant eyed troops freezing in Siberia.

I was about to pm Malachi. Have you heard from him.
Will you pm me his email?

[Gargantua]

I’ll go dig it up.

[Gargantua]

I can’t find any games he played via TripleA :(

And I thought I had his phone #, but it may have been in my old phone… :(

I sent a PM, and I’ll ask FMG if he’s heard anything, or has contact info (He should).

Mal hasn’t logged on since June.

[Witt]

I have been monitoring him and noticed that.
I miss his intelligent and well written posts. He was a good, unprejudiced and tolerent man.
A better man than me.

I wonder what you say about me behind my back! ;)

[Witt]

As I am new to Internet sites (this is my only one), nothing.
I have angered someone for talking freely with someone who shares my passion for Confedrate feats of arms.
I am honest and straight talking. Not a backstabbing orc asaassin.

Only thing I have said about you is that you are(as expected) a better A&A player than me.

I put my US fighter on Guam, because I meant to attack your Destroyer in SZ 18 and that is the only place to land afterwards.

Was looking at Atlantic and forgot to go back to Pacific side.
Would you roll it on the Forum? I do not know how to.
Thank you. Goodnight.
