@gamerman01

mean dice there

[gamerman01]

I’ve been on the wrong end so many times but the misfortune for the Allies on the US attack of Midway was a key time for the luck to reverse.

The dice hold up well on the Japanese counter that was then possible, and we have a reverse Midway. And an awful lot of fighting to go

The Japs now have but 5 warships on the board, and there are 3 Allied warships in the Pacific. The US also has 5 planes ready to take off from California, and while the Japs have 12, there are still 5 fronts, though each are fairly weak at the mo

[gamerman01]

It’s all about 6 cities now, and we have a very interesting scenario. A lot has to play out

@gamerman01

both posts should be same - do you scramble off Rome this time?

[gamerman01]

LOL “this time”, that’s funny

This is why I wanted the German fighter here and then I decided to have it suicide at Iraq. Another sad tale.

So it’s a tough one.

Subs dive, fighters stay on Rome. The destroyer fights alone

You did realize the German bomber on

I would have brought second dd - but not without your hint!!

LOL I didn’t realize I didn’t finish typing. I really didn’t want to surprise you that way.
You’re playing so many games

Change your placement how you want - that’s why I said something

[gamerman01]

I also have a bomber on Jehol that can reach 25

I do want to remind you, especially because I had made a change in my German NCM with them

[pacifiersboard]

@gamerman01

very kind! let me reconsider indeed - but I am totally fine with leaving as is, too. Only because I didn’t roll dice I wanna at least take second look … enjoy your meal meanwhile ;)
