League13 G40 Arathorn (Axis) vs Wheatbeer (Allies +16) Game 1

[wheatbeer]

G4/J4 is totally alien to me. Is this experimental?

[arathorn]

Lol - I have only used it in private games or on board before.
I figured I wanted to use it on you, since you’re not used to the Allies as much as Axis ;) hehe

@arathorn:

That’s the strangest buy with America for A3. Are you going Europe with the USA?

With a German fleet parked off Gibraltar with Italian de-blockers in position, the US had to choose between holding SZ101 or stacking enough land units to hold Washington DC. I decided it made more sense to hold the SZ.

I actually don’t know how the US will split the next Buy. That depends where the German and Japanese fleets decide to go.

Roger roger!

[wheatbeer]

posting just as a reminder that it’s Italy’s turn

[arathorn]

Italy coming up. Been crazy busy

[arathorn]

Did you see that I sent you the map by email?
The site was down.

[wheatbeer]

Nope, I only check that email if some crazy dice occur against an unknown opponent (which very rarely happens).

[wheatbeer]

Have it now. It’s been awhile so I need to remember what I’m doing.

Can’t for the life of me remember why I moved into Sudan?
