L22 Pejon_88 (X) vs. Gamerman01 (A+15), BM4, game #2

[gamerman01]

Very crisp move, with only one little undo! Maybe you ran it through another time or two before? Maybe not? Wow.

[gamerman01]

Mine’s not as crisp.
Hope it’s OK during British combat move to edit 1 American DD and 2 transports back to 92

@gamerman01 Had a strange gut feeling you would hit two in Stalingrad! Glad I brought 3 inf.

[gamerman01]

Yeah, those gut feelings often come true.

[gamerman01]

You could spare a plane

[Pejon_88]

@gamerman01 You buy a lot of bombers with the US. Can only imagine how many you have when they only cost 12IPCs :O

I, on the other hand am starting to amass a large number of fast movers around the Black Sea.

[gamerman01]

@pejon_88 I would have more :face_with_cowboy_hat:

[gamerman01]

@pejon_88 And I would like to know how many fighters you would have if they still cost 12. They should probably be at least 11, seriously

[gamerman01]

[Pejon_88]

@gamerman01 Haha ok!

[Pejon_88]

@gamerman01 Hmm, yeah get that point of view.

[gamerman01]

I was very surprised and a bit relieved when you bought a couple of Japan fighters really early. But now I know you are experienced at operating with above average sized airforces. If BM3 and bombers were 12, I would have even bigger problems before now because German bombers are a nightmare. My impression was that is why they went to 14, but someone (maybe you) said it was more because of America.

[Pejon_88]

@gamerman01 No, from what I’ve heard it was to mitigate Dark Skies with Germany.

[gamerman01]

OK, that’s what I suspected. Too powerful when they can reach 91 and deep into Russia, and North Africa all at the same time.
