Gave it a last ditch effort for Egypt and I was blown away! I was thinking I could bail the armor out if it did not luck out there, lol.

That is fine, I just go to push Germany toward Russia to attack. Italy flopped out this game 3:8)

[Cow]

38:] there got my cow emoticon

[Cow]

I am going to risk take all the way, my odds will get worse and worse, but it just has to come through in the end! LOL.

In hindsight I think I mismanaged a few key pieces. I am not too worried about it, it is not it was too improbable what I was trying to accomplish.

Well played with UK, called my sea lion bluff, got just the right amount of stuff to stop me and you got that bomber buy.

[Cow]

Not too many out there that will take advantage of a good situation.

[Guest]

Actually I quicky came to regret not buying 2bombers and waiting for convoy buy until later. But I somhow felt that the two subs would preform better if you actually tried sealion.

[Cow]

Subs were the deciding factor for me. I did consider sea lion.

If I were to do sea lion, I would want to drop a few on scotland and use italy to bomb uk’s airbase if you repaired it so I would not have to deal so much with a naval battle.

[Guest]

Btw be glad you didnt sealion because Id make the biggest russian mec buy you had seen and then Japan would be with one foot in their grave. I dont have any problem loosing london as long as I take Italy with me to the grave. A good allied player needs to learn that sacrifice is a must. 9inf buy is outdated.

[Cow]

Haha I told Veqryn to use Russian mech on Japan in a game against Garg. At first he did not go with it, he did it a little late, but still within the window necessary for us to win that game.

[Cow]

Thing is if you send russian mech toward Japan, it would have worked, Germany does not have enough air / units to convoy usa or even threaten to take east usa. That would force Japan to desperately move toward the VC count and it would be a quick game ending in me losing probably.
