2014 Championship – (4) Ghostglider(+21) v (2) Gamerman01(Axis)

Wow, our dice are getting wild again.  The triple hit by the Japs in China was like a continuation of the insane defense in the Pacific theater by defending 2’s

Finally those pesky UK fighters are down!

Dang, sorry I didn’t check back until now.  You posted 16 hours ago.  I have a nasty virus on my primary computer so I don’t dare hook it up to the internet, so it’s not as convenient to check….

Lose 1 AAA and 1 infantry

I’ll check back more frequently, sorry man

No, make it 2 infantry.  You have a lot of USA fighters in Europe already

I didn’t even look to see that I had a chance of stopping the whole thing by scrambling 3 fighters - oh well, tired of getting diced.  Probably would have still said only 1

What, you won in Z112  :wink:
And only took 2 damage in 109!
You also wiped both my units in Mongolia for the price of a tank.  No sympathy from me
By the way, the 3 AA hits finally put you slightly above 1/6 for 1’s against your aircraft for the game.  I’m closer to 20%

Obviously Denmark went bad…… remember when you wiped out a stack with no losses?

@Ghostglider:

your chance of blocking the invasion was close to 0, so the choice was 1 FTR or no FTR :-)

Really, because I saw 93%?
