@nikola1975 said in PTV L25 PlayOff: Surfer (Allies) vs Nikola1975 (Axis +9):
@surfer Yes :) Let’s see how you react.
Ok. Let’s try this. Scramble orders?
So the 8 planes that weren’t involved in combat on Kwangsi. . . 5 landed on Paulau, 2 landed on the carrier by Dutch New Guinea, 1 landed on Borneo. The surviving fighter from Queensland landed on the carrier in 62. The mech that i moved up from kwangsi to kiangsi has returned to kwangsi.
Thanks for the summary
Those are the changes. Have no reason to disbelieve you that you have me beat (and would have even with better battle results), but I just don’t see it yet.
I understand. I appreciate how you said it respectfully, too
At any rate, now we see if I can turn a sow’s ear into a silk purse. play on, bruther. . .
You’ll get no mercy :-)
Alright, sitting down to make a move…. I guess USA won’t need any decisions - they still haven’t received an invitation to the party
heheh

Just a second, I guess I hadn’t really decided on the Yunnan fighters yet. Sending one to the Phillipines…
No, that’s not a good idea because you’ll really want the Phillipines. You’re good to go - map is fine as is.
I’m wondering, though….
if you’ll still think you had a shot even if Australia went average. I think the Allies’ position is already suffocating, but if you don’t see it or agree, don’t mind me - just game on!
