4 downloads of China13 map  in 20 min - A lot of people is watching!
It is also an interesting game  :-D

[gamerman01]

Interesting how the Americans have AA immunity and have turned in so many perfect rounds….  :x

I must be nervous

[gamerman01]

And another perfect UK turn - I can’t believe how many times the USA and UK dice have been perfect or near perfect, but I’ll just have to keep soldiering on.

[gamerman01]

2 more carriers?  Are you serious?  :-)

[gamerman01]

Earlier today I attacked a sub with a sub, destroyer, and cruiser, and lost the sub and destroyer.  Then you go get missed by 5 1’s in a row, again  :-(

[gamerman01]

@Gamerman01:

2 more carriers?  Are you serious?  :-)

Ah, for the Atlantic, yes….  Not going to lose a transport to light naval and air this time
I barely got the 3 damage in 39!

[Ghostglider]

I hope this will make you stop attacking the US TRNs  :wink:
The purchase to the Atlantic might have a high price in the war against Japan, but we will see.

[gamerman01]

Wishing I hadn’t landed a yellow tac on Bryansk right about now

[Ghostglider]

If OK with you, I would prefer if you wait with the comments in other threats about our ongoing game.
I would prefer that neither of us gets any hints about what the other is doing (or could be doing) - even if this just comes up as a casual comment from anyone.

After all we have had a very nice and fair game so far, so no need to change that  8-)

[Ghostglider]

It is very safe there :-) Lots of gray friends!

[gamerman01]

Yes, Dominion brought it up and listed 9 reasons I was in trouble, and I’m not going to just let that go.
It’s more fun for me if I talk about games in progress with my opponent and with others, but I understand your sentiment, which is a common one.  Can I say stuff like I wish I hadn’t landed the yellow tac on Bryansk?  I think I’m going to leave him there to face the wrath of the Red army

[gamerman01]

@Ghostglider:

It is very safe there :-) Lots of gray friends!

They are about to betray him I think

[gamerman01]

Italy will be done very soon, by the way, so if you’re still up…. but whatever, just giving you a courtesy heads up

[gamerman01]

Ahhhhh, perfect Italian dice to follow up perfect USA/UK dice
Now let’s avoid 6 on the convoy roll…

You can comment all you like in this threat, because then I am sure to see it…
As you mentioned earlier misdirection is important in games, so please keep the comments coming!

I dont think I follow the other threats as much as you - that is why I would prefer only comment about our ongoing game here.

[gamerman01]

Average convoy rolls for once - seems they are usually wild up or down
Your turn again

Ahhhhh, my man, this helps me understand so much
I am having no secret conversations about the game and am glad you also want integrity for the game.  If anyone talks to me about the game it hurts my chances anyway.

Will only be in this thread, then.  That’s fine
