Scramble to prevent bombard (cruiser + battleship)? Normally I’d assume not, but this is a big turn

@Stucifer

Not scrambling more often results in higher German casualty rate.
So NO thanks.

@Stucifer

Bad luck in the UK AND,
good grief, I forgot to move 39 Russian infs, 6bart, and 2AA from Yaroslavl to Russia last NCM. Getting too senile for this game.

[Stucifer]

@ArtofWar1947 I was wondering why you left it open, thought maybe you were planning on a counterattack

[ArtofWar1947]

@Stucifer

Sure, lose over 100 ipc net in units, lose a treasury of 33 ipc, reduce a major factory to a minor one, and then make a hopeless counterattack. Sneaky plan that was.

[Stucifer]

@ArtofWar1947

I think it’s quite fixable, I need to edit Italy’s turn but everything else is probably good up until Germany. I’ll take a look soon 🤓

[ArtofWar1947]

@Stucifer

Thanks, but do not bother. I will concede. I need to cut way back on my AA play, and this is as good a place as any to start pruning.

[Stucifer]

@ArtofWar1947 Ok. Thanks for the game. Sorry to hear that you have to cut back, you were one of, if not my first, league matches and taught me a lot about PtV.
