  • Took a minute to register that the Italians are down to one aircraft.  I’m not used to that.  Figured you wouldn’t scramble, so I cheated one plane away.  Dice were my friend - big time.

    So I don’t need a 4th fighter in London…… moved it back to Scotland

    Oh boy, from Hero to Zero. :cry:


  • Very dramatic Allied response…. I almost forgot I did lose a sub in 96… good thing
    Big time decisions to make in round 2…

    @Gamerman01:

    Big time decisions to make in round 2……

    I guess I have it figured out already. Will sleep a night over it and see if I come to the same conclusion tomorrow :)

    mhhh. If that sub at 96 would have won, I would have said we are kind of okish in terms of dice because that would have given me 2 extra ground at Europe.
    Now I guess the only good thing after G1 I can look at is that I can be relieved that 93 did not end up in a disaster^^

    Lets see what the next turns bring^^

    I have guests over the weekend, cannot say when G2 will be done.

    Hitler was busy with private matters over the weekend till today, so he told his troops to hold until he has more time.

    Sorry for the delay, I guess G2 is coming tomorrow.


  • This Hitler is a lot weaker than the one I remember!!

  • '15 '14

    Oh boy, that Hitler is stronger than ever, Germans still on fire. UK fleet entirely whiffed in 97, that sea zone creates crazy dice this game!


  • You suck
    Robbed again
    The longer you wait to play, the better your dice.  It’s not right


  • Let me get this straight.  0/3 AA in France.  Couple infantry to spare in Paris.  0 hits in Yugo (yes I got one now).  0 hits in Z97.  My great UK1 pretty much nullified.  Pretty good chance I quit right now, call it a dice game and save face.

    I agree that this entirely turned the dice back to after Ger1.
    Especially as UK took off 3 aircraft to force the Germans to air strike 97, now in hindsight for nothing.

    Lets see what happens on the other site of the map this turn.


  • Yeah well this sucks
