Alright, good to go. UK lost a couple planes on the offense - rough round. Italy got lucky in 97. Though I guess I can’t complain as luck was with me last round in 110.
Italy’s pretty rich. Haven’t seen an Italy this strong in OOB in a long time. :)
ok now we are into the planes so you will need to choose. big battle here.
i continue to roll down worse than you. if you get 1 hit here though look out! :-D

what are you talking about, my D had 3 hits on the first wave of the attack! 3 @2, 2 @3 & 4 @4……3 hits by the way you have what a 49% chance to win……I am sure I will get screwed. Put the bottle of elmer’s down bold…
continue max D all the way
you hit back 4 times. round 3 attack i hit 3/3. you will lose a tac and 2 ftrs, but you have 2 italian and 2 german ftrs. which will you lose?
you are right, i was doing better than i though but my 2 hits in round 2 with your 4 hits back put you in the good.
round 3 attack i hit 3/3.
of course you did
you will lose a tac and 2 ftrs, but you have 2 italian and 2 german ftrs. which will you lose?
why does this matter now? just roll dammit
this when I get 50% at 4’s, which is typical

it matters now because i don’t want to later give you the choice of what fighters to keep! it may affect whether i continue attacking after your defense roll!

cmon jww, you’re a veteran, you know how this works! defender must choose casualties before seeing the defense roll!
@JWW:

50% at fours is just fine, as long as you get a hit with your tac. :-D
I’ll need to review and get back to you…
take your time, it’s a huge battle.
here’s the most current map.
I will keep the German fgt’s….I really don’t see a reason why this needs to be called now. I understand that in some instances it is wise for people to make a selection as you go but I don’t see it in this case. Perhaps I don’t see the big picture? I guess you could use german air in an attack, that might matter, next round….I guess that is why I will keep the german fgt’s
