L13 G40 Ziggurat (Axis) vs Fortress (Allies+9)

[Ziggurat]

And… I have no doubts that this is Italy’s high water mark :P. The dream was fun while it lasted!

But, hey, CONGRATULATIONS on taking Yugoslavia!  :lol: I don’t even think I’ve seen some of those Soviet territories fall before Yugoslavia. This is a WEIRD game…

I wish there was a smiley face with a little party hat on… I feel streamers and confetti are in order…  :wink:

I’d like to point out that I got horrific dice in the battle for Belarus. 47I, M, 8A, T and I got 7 hits. I’d puke if that was a battle with your big stack.

BTW, I absolutely LOVE the decision to SBR campaign against Moscow. The counter-intuitive part: Bombing an industrial center causes infantry to cost 33% more, but only causes a squad of fighter aircraft to cost 10% more and a tank unit to cost 16% more.  :? Oh, well. It works for gameplay purposes, anyways…

Yeah, SBR is really the only way to go if Germany wants to keep a solid Atlantic Wall and help Italy. It’s impossible to just straight out-muscle Russia, ward off the Americans, and bail Italy out of the med. Something has to give, so I’m going to try and ameliorate the problem with “persuasive propaganda” :P. Which brings me to my next point. Every round you repair Moscow I’m going to be sending in 3 bombers. Do you want to set a blanket rule for intercepts or pause for orders every time? If you couldn’t tell, I have 0 qualms sending planes to their death :).

[Fortress]

Um. No, I couldn’t tell…  :roll:

I think my decisions might be situation-dependent… So I think that might be a “check-with-me” kind of a thing. Thanks  :-)

[Fortress]

I gotta run to my overnight job. The good news is I have wi-fi there (and nothing to do)! US/C/UK coming up later  :-D

[Fortress]

Sigh. Ran out of time. I didn’t forget about ya.

[Ziggurat]

No worries, get some sleep :). Back to the weekday now and my inconvenient schedule of not being able to do anything til after 6 :P.

[Fortress]

Thanks, now I’m at the real job. Boy, the stuff we do so that we can eat…  :lol:

I think the guys in Norway were pissed they didn’t get invited to the luau in Fiji and mutinied :P.

We could get some momentum going for the reverse-taranto being a thing. Here’s what just happened to Wheatbeer when he tried to execute it:
"            Battle in 97 Sea Zone
                Italians attack with 1 bomber, 1 cruiser, 2 destroyers, 2 fighters and 1 submarine
                British defend with 1 carrier, 1 destroyer, 2 fighters and 1 submarine
                    Italians roll dice for 1 submarine in 97 Sea Zone, round 1 :  0/1 hits
                    British roll dice for 1 submarine in 97 Sea Zone, round 1 :  1/1 hits
                    Italians roll dice for 1 bomber, 1 cruiser, 2 destroyers and 2 fighters in 97 Sea Zone, round 1 :  1/6 hits
                    British roll dice for 1 carrier, 1 destroyer and 2 fighters in 97 Sea Zone, round 1 :  2/4 hits
                    1 destroyer owned by the Italians , 1 fighter owned by the Italians , 1 submarine owned by the Italians and 1 destroyer owned by the British lost in 97 Sea Zone
                    British roll dice for 1 submarine in 97 Sea Zone, round 2 :  1/1 hits
                    Italians roll dice for 1 bomber, 1 cruiser, 1 destroyer and 1 fighter in 97 Sea Zone, round 2 :  1/4 hits
                    British roll dice for 1 carrier and 2 fighters in 97 Sea Zone, round 2 :  2/3 hits
                    1 destroyer owned by the Italians , 1 fighter owned by the Italians , 1 submarine owned by the British and 1 bomber owned by the Italians lost in 97 Sea Zone
                1 cruiser owned by the Italians retreated to 95 Sea Zone
                British win with 1 carrier and 2 fighters remaining. Battle score for attacker is -40
                Casualties for British: 1 destroyer and 1 submarine
                Casualties for Italians: 1 bomber, 2 destroyers, 2 fighters and 1 submarine"

It’s certainly not a move for the feint of heart… I don’t feel near as bad now about how my attempt went :P. Caution all ye who enter SZ97…
