13L G40.2 Gamerman01 (Allies +9) vs. Jeff28 (Axis)

[gamerman01]

Thank you very much, that is generally how I play too - that makes me feel a lot better about this little change
(I need to fly the 2 USA fighters after attacking Morocco elsewhere - probably to my South American safe haven again  :-D) because I need space on the carrier to land 2 critical UK fighters after attacking Gibraltar.

I was thinking I’d better not assume you’d allow it before carrying out my whole UK move, because I can see how some players might be sticklers for not going back to a previous power, even if no enemy power or dice rolling came in between.

Anyway, THANKS again for the permission and explanation - that eases my concerns completely.

You can certainly expect permission from me to change things in previous phases as well, provided dice have not been rolled or as long as an enemy power has not gone in between.  And even then, like most players, I would give permission if the change had no relation to the things that had happened between, but of course we all appreciate being asked if there is any doubt.

Better tell those boys in Gibraltar to head for their bunkers!  Here comes the thunder!  :-D

[gamerman01]

OK, all rested up and here to finish off this move, then  :-)

You have not been lucky this game
I look in my e-mail and see my infantry hitting, and even a defending sub hit…

[gamerman01]

Oh, OK, yeah now I’m looking at the game.  Got it working on this computer now…
You took a lot of big hits in Java and the sea zone around it, but otherwise everything went very smoothly…
