Scrambles in India? (Didn’t want to assume anything)

In Russia, you’ll likely choose to lose an infantry over an AA gun if the bomber manages to score a hit?

As far as what territories you will own in Europe:
Southern France/Northern Italy/Holland+Belgium/Western Germany and even France itself if you want to liberate it.

You won’t be able to get Berlin, within 2 turns though, and that’s what matters most :p

[teslas]

Forgot Denmark.

And probably Norway.

[Caesar1]

No scramble

[Caesar1]

Yes, in Russia in case of hit kill an inf

Hi, sorry for the long wait. This time is my fault. Unfortunately I had a VERY busy week. I’m posting in late night after another tiring day in fact I forgot to post the chinese and USA turn :/. Moreover I wrongly selected Western Germany instead of Germany for the bombing raid with the british bomber. So I did a little edit. Sorry again. There will be no more a wait like this.

No problem at all on having a busy week. It doesn’t hold me up any. FYI: I’ll be gone all weekend.

I’ll let the bomber thing slide in this instance, because, indeed, it doesn’t make sense to bomb a factory you’re about to conquer and stop the enemy from being able to repair/produce out of it anyway.

And my Italian can-opener scored 1 hit. Should have scored 3, I would have been happy with 2, but 1. Pretty sure you’re ahead in the luck department this game, my good man.

There it goes! Had me worried.

I took a huge gamble by not repairing and building in Berlin. I hope it was the right choice. I think by not “wasting” the 20 IPCs this turn to repair my factory, that was my only hope for holding our and pushing back in Europe. If Germany collapses, I don’t know if Japan can win before America starts dumping money in the Pacific and flies all its bombers home.

Also, boy am I glad I never took Normandy!

Good game, so far, sir! Super tense.

[teslas]

Oh wait, sorry! I didn’t see your tank in Caucasus. I had it scrolled down only so far to see your infantry and mech infantry, and did not think you could blitz up to hit my planes. Let me review the board real fast, I might need to move those.

[teslas]

Yes, please move my Bryansk tactical bombers to Ukraine. I would do it, but the web filter is about to come back up at work, and I’ve already been told to stop circumventing it on multiple occasions :p
