Re: G4015L ShinJi(Allies +14) v Karl7(Axis) Part2

[Karl7]

If you allow an Italy redo, we could then just keep playing.  If my original interpretation/tripple a’s interpretation is right (and I don’t think it is) then I would win anyway.

But if the rule says what I think it says, then you taking France has reset the condition and we need to keep going.

[Shin-Ji]

Yea, I’m fine with an Italy redo.  It’s one thing to completely miss obvious options on the board (as I did not factoring in the Italian forces in W Germany), and it’s another to be confused by an admittedly confusing rule.

[Karl7]

Ok, cool.  Well, now the advantage has swung in your direction!

Take SFE and move one Inf to Bury, please.

Also, I was thinking that I’d move the 8 French troops to Normandy instead.

[Shin-Ji]

Actually, belay that bit about the Frenchies.  Keep em in S France.

[Karl7]

Cool.  Germany is going to take some thought.

This is an intense game!

[Shin-Ji]

Take your time.  I took almost a full day running over my strategy for the USA the other day.  At this stage in the game, any mistake will cost us.

Like, I’m genuinely concerned that forgetting to move those Brit and French infantry from Gib to Spain a few rounds ago may be what does me in.
