Robson (X) vs Kilroynothere (A) G40 YGTE - game2 revenge of the dice gods

[Robson]

@kilroynothere Dear Kilroy, as the situation looks absolutely desperate, the axis power do surrender due to the overwhelming allied power. Congrats to another well deserved victory!

[kilroynothere]

@robson Hey Robson, I thought you might go that direction. Feel the Axis can hold on for a long, long time, but… the momentum and the economics favor the Allies right now. Up for another game? I can play the axis this time. I like our pace of play as I really cannot play more regularly than we tend to do.

[kilroynothere]

@robson, I do have one question on the last game. The Japanese fleet off of Singapore, did you intend to land your planes on the carrier or leave them all at the airbase on Singapore? I was just curious as I could see either play being advantageous or disadvantageous for Japan. I was totally OK if you had made a mistake and I would have gone back and changed up some of my moves to allow you to change your move if you simply missed it. Just wasn’t sure.

[Robson]

@kilroynothere Hey Kilroy, yes of course. Please start the game with the Axis any time you want. I think I can proceed beginning of next week.

[kilroynothere]

@robson Sounds great. I am going to try to figure out something a bit different this time. What the heck that is, I don’t know yet!!!

[kilroynothere]

@robson So sorry for the massive delay. Family and work life has drained all of my free time of late. Plus, Fall is a lovely time here in Austin, Tx and sports, parties and other gatherings seem to be taking my evenings! I will get you a move here soon.

[kilroynothere]

@robson Again, very sorry for the delay in starting up this game. Work got crazy, had some tragedy with friends, its been hectic to say the least. Finally had a bit of time to think about how I wanted to approach this game.

Need your scramble orders.

@kilroynothere Hey Kilroy, all good. Hope everything turns out well for you and your family.
I am also currently pretty buys with finishing my paintwork before the map for Global War 36 v4 will arrive in my house.
By the way: maximum scramble please :relaxed:

[kilroynothere]

@robson OH, this is going to be a fun opening! “artwork”? What are you creating? send a pic if you can. I’m intrigued. You may like this, my friends and I were able to play my 1986 game of Shogun the other week face to face. It was a blast! Had not opened the box for 20 years!

[kilroynothere]

@robson Well, the Germans had great dice on the small battles and horrible dice on the big ones. No hits in Yugo first round! Lost most of the luftwaffe and UK has a BB left. Even lost a tank in France! Not sure if it is a major problem for Germany, but definitely going to be difficult moving forward…triplea_36714_1ger.tsvg

@kilroynothere Hey Kilroy, sorry for my absence the last two weeks. Hope to can continue tomorrow.

[kilroynothere]

@robson no worries, my friend. Take your time.

[Robson]

@kilroynothere Hey mate, finally I made it. Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family.triplea_36714_1ANZ.tsvg Had a bit of bad luck against Iraq but now the british can take that territory.

[kilroynothere]

@robson thanks! Thanksgiving was amazing. 33 for dinner! Big party…running a little slow today. 😵‍💫. Heading home tomorrow and will take a look.

[kilroynothere]

@robson sorry for the delay. Been traveling a bit. triplea_36714_1jap.tsvg

[Robson]

@kilroynothere Hey Kilroy, should be able to continue latest tomorrow. My wife and me got the flu and it was quite hefty.

[kilroynothere]

@robson dang. I have heard the flu is not much fun this year. My wife and I go the shot in hopes that if we come down with it we might get through it easier. Who knows? Wife just had knee replacement so I have been a bit distracted last couple of weeks. As always, no worries on my end of things and thanks for the update.

[Robson]

@kilroynothere now that break was absolutely related to christmas and family. Hope you had a wonderful time with your loved ones. Back to business, need your scramble orders for the axis. :blush: triplea_36714_1UK1.tsvg

[kilroynothere]

@robson sorry for the delay. I too have been enjoying the break with family and friends. Feel this game is off to a crazy start so I’m going to scramble all three fighters and hope the dice gods are kind!

[Robson]

@kilroynothere Well the dice gods decided to change the luck between the battles :-) Could be an intereting game. triplea_36714_1IT1.tsvg
