I’m fortunate for strong defense of 110. If it was weak or VERY weak I would already be in trouble

I think too dice was normal. But better luck in sz110 and no luck against Yugo or France. In my other game was in G1 attack to sz110 with 8 planes 1 hit and 1 hit with sub.

Yunnan a real nail-biter, got my pulse up, but I got what I came for :cold_sweat:

Scramble to Zone 97?

[elche]

No thanks.

[gamerman01]

I can roll and finish soon, I think
Thanks for the quick answer

[elche]

I will write in the other chat.

[gamerman01]

Unbelievable blank. A scramble would have crushed me

[gamerman01]

Sorry, forgot to move 2 units from Alex to Egypt -
Caught it in the self-review

Thanks

[gamerman01]

What?? Didn’t move the planned DD at South Africa, caught it now. I must be shaken up from Z97

UK1 edit 2.tsvg

[gamerman01]

Oh, and the edit of the fighter in the Mediterranean was necessary because Triple A must have removed my fighter with 2 movement left instead of the one from Gibraltar that had none.

[elche]

Yes, sz97 was hard again, now for me.

You captured Normandy with a tank, and wiped out my cruiser in 96 without a shot back? Sick!

[gamerman01]

Oh, but a 0/4 and 3/3 in 97, that is crazy. What a wacky turn. Are the Germans afraid to air-strike 97 now I wonder? :hushed:

[gamerman01]

And that’s Vichy? On a 14% chance?

OK I totally forgot about Vichy once again and got absolutely ambushed in an extremely dramatic way, but why in the WORLD didn’t you take at least 2 air at Normandy?

Great luck in 97 certainly helps a lot, BUT
I’ll hold my tongue now.

[gamerman01]

I should have learned from the last time, I think it was a close call, but I didn’t.

[gamerman01]

With that result in 97 I’ll just have to pretend you sent those 2 air at Normandy. That works for me.

[gamerman01]

Here’s French 1, what’s left of them.
