@wizmark Dice continuing in my favor, hopefully they even out.
L22 Pejon_88 (X) vs. Gamerman01 (A+15), BM4, game #2
-
I, on the other hand am starting to amass a large number of fast movers around the Black Sea.
-
@pejon_88 I would have more :face_with_cowboy_hat:
-
@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 Haha ok!
-
@gamerman01 Hmm, yeah get that point of view.
-
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.
-
@gamerman01 No, from what I’ve heard it was to mitigate Dark Skies with Germany.
-
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.

Combat Hit Differential Summary :
Chinese regular : -0,33 Americans regular : 0,17 Japanese regular : -2,17
I edited 2 inf for a sub since I bought wrong from what was planned. It can easily be seen, I think. If you disagree, change back to the 2 inf.
-
You placed 2 ships at FIC where the 2 infantry might have gone, and could have placed the destroyer/transport at 6 instead of 2 infantry in Japan.
But
You rarely ask for edits and graciously told me I could just edit it if I want. I like to get a little leniency too. The dice didn’t have much to do with it, either. And because you move so fast, I definitely allow it.
-
@gamerman01 Yeah, I know it was is water tight. Just meant from how I played previous round and the reasonable ship buy at SZ6 when Allies control Caroline Islands. Thanks!
-
You bet, no problem, and I won’t hold it against you later if you deny me an edit
-
@gamerman01 Thanks! Although you’re probably on the safe side. Once I let Simon33 put up a blocker which was a matter of win or not for the Japanese.
-
Yeah, like if I had forgot to put the ANZ cruiser out there. Obvious intent, but immediate game ending :slightly_smiling_face:
-
I’m lucky it didn’t get smoked by the sub, btw
-
@gamerman01 Well on 33% risk. I was very happy keeping the other sub or losing any planes.
-
I have to meet a 3/31 deadline and my back suddenly went out Saturday. Lots of pain, and I have this big job to finish up. I work alone, so no one else can do it. I should be fine, but don’t know when I will move next, sorry
-
@gamerman01 oh I hope you’re still able to move about somewhat? What do you work with? Thanks for the heads up.
-
A lot better today, so glad to be back to work. My massage therapist is awesome, and I did a good job of resting, hehe. I do financial audits for small towns, and this one’s new to me and wasn’t audited last year, so it’s a challenge. All that tense thinking and sitting in a chair.
