Thank you Mike, enjoyed the game - I think it would have taken several more turns to be decisive, as USA still had a lot of firepower, but with Axis gaining the income advantage, it may have been just a matter of time. I had never played against Gibastion or KJF before, so was cool to see the strats in action.

-
Same as usual. Scramble and OOL?
-
You changed it up a bit with the bombers, actually! I’ll scramble 111, but not 110.
-
Think I did a fishy variation last game. This is my standard opening, I guess.
-
But I see I missed to bring in the Poland tac to France. May I adjust that? Haven’t started the battle there yet, but have done the others.
-
Can set up that battle separately.

But it’s ok to skip it if you feel it’s improper. Doesn’t make so much difference actually, but a little. I usually like to bring it in.
-
Oh, I hadn’t seen that. Kinda tricky logistically to change it now, tho, right? I don’t mind as such, but how can you do it? Besides, maybe the AA would have just gotten it anyway…
-
WOW, you are off to a good start. I really doubt you need that plane, esp with not taking Normandy.
-
Yes, I’d load the initial game again and pull off only that battle, post the result and then edit the battle in the original post whatever the outcome.
The TUV-swing is usually about the same because of the risk of losing the plane, but I think it’s a better move. Unless I want that tac in S Italy or something.
But it’s your call.
-
Have to go and sleep. No stress. I will be able to finish the round tomorrow during the day sometime. Or in the night if I can’t sleep.
-
Oh, yeah, that makes sense. You can do that if you want. Clearly my brain isn’t fully loading. ANyway, got two hours to write an 8 page paper! Wish me luck!

Good luck! You’ll make it!

esp with not taking Normandy
I’ve come to realize after a few games that the Vichy execution actually kind of sucks. Seems sweet, but is more or less a trap. Like Finland for Russia.

It’s sooo much fun to transport an AA gun to South France on Bri1, tho!
