German defense a joke as usual

No this game is far from decided as I am concerned. Let’s play it until the very end won’t you say?

Afterwards we could start another one and you can play the axis then if you want.

Concerning the dices, I think I had a normal run with Japan. Pretty even luck/unluck there. It was just Germany that had consistently bad dices. Plus all their opponents had quite good dices at the same time. Weird. It’s like the germans fighting moral has crashed or something…

While here you get 3/3 hits on your bombardments all the time it seems to me! I would expect 10 inf to do a better job defending than what my german guys do.

I did something stupid with Japan, I attacked borneo with my fighters overlooking that they cannot actually make it back to SZ 60. So now they are stuck there! Do you mind if I replay this round and not use my fighters in that attack? I’ll edit so all the other battles are identical. In a real game this wouldn’t happen I would think, because you always have to proclaim where you want to land them, and then you will see they actually cannot make that…

Sure. But you can still move your carriers after your fighter movements, which take away the spot where the fighters could land. Which happened in this case.

Thx, I replay the turn then.
