[boldfresh]

oh you mean the fighters i sent to hit spain should have been available to scramble in z97 instead of being COMPLETELY wasted in spain, even 1 got shot down?  what a joke.

well, i guess at this point i have to give myself a chance to get lucky to make up for the terrible luck run i’ve been on so go ahead and scramble the ftr/tac.  :roll:

[boldfresh]

OR the terrible luck will continue and i will be even further in the hole…  :-o

[Jeff28]

Not really sure what I was supposed to do. Middle east is a real problem area.

[boldfresh]

dont worry, this epidemic of lost aircraft is probably going to seal my fate.

[boldfresh]

i cant believe that after taking down three german aircraft and a japanese aircraft with incredible unlikelihood, you have now also taken down an italian aircraft and only lost a destroyer.  it is flabberghasting.  but that’s how this game so often goes for me, so i’m used to it now…  :lol:

[boldfresh]

i may want to lose the ftr instead of the tac, let me have a look a the map.

[Jeff28]

Your choice. Although if you lose the fig I might lose a sub and try your luck again. Lol.

[boldfresh]

ok, depending on what i decide i will resolve the battle before i do italy obviously.  so you can tell me if i keep the tac, whether you will press with the destroyer…

[Jeff28]

Yes, sure why not.

[boldfresh]

ok let’s do it - will make a better story if you hit again.
