I must have made a calculation error on Sealion on my UK turn.
Because it surely didn’t affect your Italy turn, I have edited 2 infantry to Scotland.
If you have a problem with this, please let me know

scramble?

[gamerman01]

Yes, scramble them

Take off UK fighter, then France fighter, battleship last

For Z97, I will check back soon for casualty choice.  Unless you get very few hits or very many hits, you will probably need my decision…

@Gamerman01:

It’s worked well for me to edit the units off before rolling it at all in Triple A.  That way there are no MARTI dice for it, which helps prevent protests from your opponent.  You can delete them in the combat phase, right off the embattled space.

Not a bad idea, I’ll keep that in mind next time. Usually try to avoid edits during the combat phase and the few times I have was when I added something that didn’t quite work.

[seth4god]

@Gamerman01:

Yeah, aggressive combat move and then chicken in the combat phase!
Keeping all your precious air, eh?
Well, Sealion pressure is down quite a bit.
I gotta be happy about Yugo and South France and Z93 convoy

I wanted to preserve my air because I love having German air. I half suspected you’d try stacking sz97 and wanted enough air to kill it dead and I could always use MORE German air. I still got to kill UK air later, so I’m happy.  :-D

Especially with those rolls. Makes up for I want to say it was my game against Hank where he stacked sz97 like you did and every SINGLE defender hit.

@Boldfresh:

need decision in our game seth

I would appreciate it if you’d stick out of this thread!

I keed I keed, I’m not Kyle . . . sorry about that, was kind of a dick move on his part. You’re always welcome to post in game threads I’m in.

Oh and intercept choice was given.  :-P

[gamerman01]

I guess I’m going to have to beat you with skill  :-P
All those attacks you’ve made and only 3 aircraft down - that is sick

[seth4god]

@Gamerman01:

You mean you’re going to try and beat me with skill. I intend to at least put up a fight. And who knows I might actually get the win, especially if I continue to get rolling like this.

[gamerman01]

I love your confidence, Seth.  I can’t blame you for being hopeful at this point.
The little things will kill you, though  :mrgreen:

[gamerman01]

Hmmmm
That post sounded a lot like a certain friend of mine…

[seth4god]

@Gamerman01:

You’re not going to get in my head! I’m immune to your attempts to pysch me out.  :wink:

[gamerman01]

:-D Playing to my strengths

[seth4god]

To the top!

[gamerman01]

Hmmm, if I remember right I overlooked the 3 armor from Yugo to EPl when doing R1, but it’s still the attack to make…. Significantly higher than 50/50…
We’ll see what the dice say now
