14L G40 variance & Karl7(allies+6) take II

Scramble all of them max defense.

Use latest map please.

Sorry for all the edits at the end of last turn forgot to move a lot of pieces. Looks like it’s going to be over one way or the other.

I assumed loss of infantry in FIC but maybe that’s not what you want -

Change out artillery for infantry (for transporting purposes) if you want

@Jacob16 and scramble?

@farmboy

Thx, I feel like this is a pivotal battle, and that you wanted me to take this one… but I have to go for it, and hope to get lucky. Rolls coming shortly!

It was definitely a pivotal one. It wasn’t so much that I wanted you to take it. I had wanted to hit your stack in Yugoslavia before and I wanted to be able to protect those transports. I thought I did enough to discourage the attack, but I can see, given the game situation, that it may have been worth the gamble at this point.
