wow, the axis is starting to get their groove on with two huge attacks!

[wheatbeer]

How the heck am I supposed to make any progress when you keep winning big land battles against the odds  :lol:

[boldfresh]

no kidding!  let’s see if we can make it 3/3 with nw persia on J23!

[boldfresh]

i’ll say this - europe looks a heck of a lot better lately.

[boldfresh]

i have gotten really good dice in three major battles after round 20…  none of them phenomenal but the three together are extremely unlikely.

[boldfresh]

that last a a gun was meant to go to France From n ita

[boldfresh]

this is easily the tightest game i’ve ever been in at round 23.

France still doing nothing

Odds, I redo the map
Evens, you redo the map

Rolling 1d10:
(3)

[wheatbeer]

I dunno if I will be able to do this tonight.

[boldfresh]

Oh snap…. my luck continues!!  :-P

[wheatbeer]

I just mailed you the original and rebuilt maps.

[boldfresh]

very nice job on the rebuild, looks like you were perfect on the matching of units and bank accounts.

[boldfresh]

two things:

1. I posted that I wanted the AA gun from n italy to go to france before you posted so i will go ahead and edit that.
2. The germans had 3 mechs in reserve that they were not able to place last round because when they took n. italy they lost the ability to produce in the factory and the max number of units that could be place were placed last round.

[wheatbeer]

1. no problem
2. I think technically, Germany gets it’s money back instead?

I didn’t mess with political situation edits since I am not sure if that edit function works right … I figured if the Soviets, Japan and America DOW appropriately on their turns, it will be fine.
