13L G40 NT Arathorn (Axis) vs JDOW (Allies +12)

[JDOW]

Well, I cannot even kill a sub with a Destroyer, Ita Sub easily slaps French wannabe-navy with the first shot, but what to expect from French “military” units^^. French should have white units, then they can more easily surrender:D

Accidentally pushed next, so here is the file attached.

Hehe. My german luftwaffe has good juice :)

[arathorn]

When can we expect your Russian advance? ;)

[JDOW]

Hey…

was forced by my father in law to drink Wodka at dinner (which I prepared for 2 hours). Cannot move today with alcohol in my veins, enough blunders and poor decisions happened already and in this position every move belongs together, especially Russian with US/UK.
However I do NOT want to raise the impression I delay the game due to my bad position.
Russkies coming tomorrow and US/ZH/UK also same day once your Jap3 is done.

Will keep reasonable pace till the end!

[JDOW]

@arathorn:

When can we expect your Russian advance? ;)

Advance? I just learned from Bold vs whaet that the Russkies have to walk into China and keep Baltic, EP and Bessa empty vs sea lion. Probably I abandon Moscow already looking for a new home in Korea…or why not FIC?:)

Oh dear, I really cant believe how the dices are going in this game. Yes, this is whiny, but I want to kill 5 Inf in Asia and these guys kill SIX of my units. What happened in Kweichow? What in Sudan?

How can I lose TWICE with 2 ground + air vs 2 ground with zero losses on your end?
Hoe can a stupid Italians sub kill a DD in a one on one twice?

Yeah, Scotland went slightly above average, but this cant really compensate that every, really every single other detail in dices went against me so far. I really feel I should celebrate I did not lose the Mech in Shensi.
