@crockett36 Hard to tell how much of our loss was based on the setup vs our opponents simply being better. I’ll consult with @oysteilo before we open the bidding.

I forgot to walk into Finland on US9. I edited it in. If it’s an issue, I’ll take it on UK9, instead.

I quit.

Not to be a whiner, but I have to say that was a very cheap win. What a shitty ending to my LAST game.

Like I said, you deserved better than those boxcars that the bombers rolled. I had been planning on doing that for the last 3 turns (the airbase in So France was dual purpose allowing British fighters involved in Germany to land in Norway or Denmark, capturing Norway with bare bones so as to not encourage a defensive Baltic fleet build) but I neglected to take Holland and you almost blew up the whole thing because I did something stupid.
If I had seen that I probably would’ve moved a destroyer down and given them some aircover.
I’m sorry that you think it was cheesy, but when somebody is pushing that hard against me, sometimes I’ll just let them have their objective and I’ll pick a different one. I was planning on stuffing Greece full of guys and an IC, dropping ICs on Norway and Finland, and sitting the Soviet stack on top of the Americans on Novgorod while Europe got landed on. You wanted me out of Southern Europe so badly, I decided to leave.
-
In any case, thanks for the game.
-
Well I have decided to leave too. I’m deleting my account.
-
I’m sorry to hear that. Good luck to you.

Interesting game to observe. Looks like the allies played well / waited for their hour to come.
