15L Playoff Rd2: [4] JDOW (Axis) vs. [8] Gamerman01 (Allies +25)

[gamerman01]

Yeah well this sucks
I’ll run Russia since it’s not too hard, and then you’ll play a conservative Japan and not lose anything and then I’ll kick the board

[gamerman01]

The only plane you lost was to a Rome scramble.  This is pretty much unbeatable

[gamerman01]

It’s not back to where we were after G1.  It’s a lot worse

[gamerman01]

Your sub hit in 113 and I couldn’t even take over WUK with 2 infantry and a fighter

Assumed a sub in 113
Just destroy me on J2 so I can be done with old 2nd edition and stop playing 2 different types of games at the same time.  I’m done with 2nd edition.  Stupid Russian NO that’s all or nothing and can all be stopped by a sub that the Russians can’t do anything about

[boldfresh]

This is so ugly

[JDOW]

Looking at J2 now, hope I can post tonight, however wife is quite impatient at the moment :-/

[JDOW]

Events are mirroring this turn. Perfect Germans followed be slightly below Japan.

You took off 4 planes at my airstrike at sze, however Yunnan went very well for me, there was also potential for failure.

looking at NCM now.

Hectic time of the year for me - gotta beat my big annual deadline of 3/31 with my work
So I won’t be as regular  :-( but I always know when it’s my turn in a game and it bugs me every day until I make the move
If these dice won’t turn around again, then I probably won’t be long for this game anyway, and neither of the other two first round games have finished, as I’m sure you realize  :-)

[JDOW]

No problem!

and neither of the other two first round games have finished, as I’m sure you realize

Not exactly. Ghost vs Zhuk is over, Zhuk is waiting for the winner from ME1945 vs Juan ;) Crazy game those gents are playing. Frankly, Juan has a better position than I expected after he lost the Japanese bombers early, however the Russians had some bad dicing as far as I remember.

[gamerman01]

Ah - hehe, must not have been memorable to me because I forgot one of those games is over

[gamerman01]

This is probably the same time of year I made Zhukov wait too…… busy season… thanks for your patience

[JDOW]

Alright, thanks for the update.

[gamerman01]

I will be moving soon though - today or tomorrow.  Helps that the nerquen game is over and kid doesn’t move much any more
