I chose a casualty for you in Paris, feel free to choose another one if you didn’t like the choice.

And I would have to take and hold the 8 VCs. My understanding is you taking Paris resets the clock on the win.

Sorry to hijack but I am almost certain I can second that!

Axis once again have the 8VCs required for a win. Allies have until G17 to retake a VC before it’s too late.

[MrRoboto]

Ok, some kind of last resort, my last straw of hope.

Please give me OOL

[seth4god]

You have 4 fighters left.  :evil:

sz113rd2.tsvg

[MrRoboto]

3 more hits with these last 4 fighters.

sz113rd2.tsvg

[seth4god]

Lose 2ftr and the dd

3ftrs will land in WGer.

[seth4god]

3ftr will scramble in sz81 against UK if you decide to mount an attack from there.

Sz113 OOL will be best D. Probably best if you roll on the forum due to the subs.

[seth4god]

Italy will just sit tight, so you can skip Italy and go ahead and try the Aussies. If I don’t win this turn, I doubt I win.

[seth4god]

No scramble in sz81 against the Aussies.
