11L '41 - Manstein (axis) v BoldFresh (Allies) Bid 6, +NOs, No Tech


  • The ever active BoldFresh has agreed to give me my first challenge. He is placing 2 infantry in Egypt. Let’s hope I can get past round 2.

  • '12

    :-D I have been on an incredibly bad run of luck as of the last few months, so I’m probably your perfect first opponent.

    Good luck Manstein, looking forward to it.


  • thanks, I’m going to need it

    actually it appears you are short a fighter for germany.  looks like you never used the fighter in poland for attack nor did you move it in noncom.  you can go ahead and place it, it will affect my noncom for Russia, as well as whether i want to go a second round in baltic states or retreat.
