Glad you have been gerting some great dice.  Should make it more fun.

[boldfresh]

after all that whining…

Battle score for attacker is 46

the funny thing is, i think you were the one saying i shouldn’t complain about dice.  funny how karma works eh.

[boldfresh]

hope you don’t object to how that italian followup on egypt went.  if only you had won egypt with more right?  or perhaps you had lost the bomber and kept another ground unit.  i dunno.  :wink:

here’s the map- not letting me post through tripleA.

anyway, your situation in the pacific sure should lead to an allied victory right?

[JDOW]

I can just say I was fully aware of the air strike in Egypt but considered the bomber to be more valuable for the time being.
and no, after winning in Egypt at all there is no room for “if I only could have survived with more”-stuff.
