10L-41-a44bigdog(axis) vs Bardoly 9 IPC Asia bid, +Tech

@VictoryFirst Awaiting your bid placement that meets league default rules

(If we’d have bid back and forth for sides, we could have agreed beforehand to alter the rules, but since I’m just giving you 50 they should adhere to league defaults)

Thanks, but I’m good with the R1 posted. Those boats will help more in the Baltic, I think.

FYI - I’ll be out the rest of the night. If you are going for a J1 COW, no scramble in 35 and submerge in 37 (assuming you send the CR + 3 planes).

some nice Axis income… not sure what is normal in PtV, but I am surprised to see so much German money

@Stucifer well, props to you for some crafty play. The bombing of Gibraltar is a pro move and allowed you to garrison Rome with a thin force.

And I only saw your forking move against the vcs at the last minute.

I will also say you were very brave for taking on this challenge. 120 bid is an uphill battle.

Further I would recommend something weird: roll 100 dice in tripleA before you start the battle. I swear my first rolls are always misses. I just had a US turn where the enemy successively rolled 9 hits 17 dice and UK 8h/16 rolls. So I feel your pain.

I would also say that I enjoy keeping the planes out of Moscow so an air raid 8v8 on German front line units is my cup of tea.

I’m neither a great nor an enthusiastic axis player but we can restart and switch sides anytime.

Oh I will say I probably bobbled that plus 75 ipc purchase. I should have upgraded a factory to take advantage of the big money. Still kicking the tires.
