ghost, i just realized i mobilized incorrectly - meant to put one of those carriers in the atlantic.  if it would have changed your italy then just leave it as is.

[boldfresh]

also i’m quite glad you didn’t ask me if i wanted to scramble into z92 - i probably would have had to strongly consider it, knowing i need to get really lucky back after that UK2 sucker punch!

bad first round but ended up average…  ghost, truly, i think it’s time you bought a lottery ticket - i’ll chip in and ride that luck.  :-)

[Ghostglider]

Average results and I am Lucky…?

[boldfresh]

@Ghostglider:

Average results and I am Lucky…?

After round 1 I said u were lucky.  Battle as a whole was average.  But you’ve been riding a pretty nice dice wave that I’m a little jealous of I admit.  Probably getting bad luck in other games just not the ones I’m watching.

I usually avoid any talk of dice till game is over cuz they can always change…. but so far this one’s been fairly tipped in axis direction due to the incredible round 1 and 2 defenses against uk attacks.  Lot to play though.
