12L - '41 - Bold (allies +3) vs. Botider, -tech, +NO

@FlyingBadger I realize the sub in 110 can slow down the G1 combat resolution, but… I still choose it

I assumed no scramble in sz6.
If you want to scramble I will reroll the battle

Edited out a US F & Tac from western Africa, because I forgot to do so last turn when they were edited to A-E Sudan.

Thanks I was surprised to see two pairs of aircraft in Africa but didn’t interrogate it further than that 😅

OK… it is pick on Badger time

I don’t have that many things, you did a lot very well.

You’ve played 57 games across all 3 versions since 2021, so you have much more recent experience than I
I’m just an old veteran, coming back in 2022 and only 15 games since then.

So you learned the first commandment of A&A play a long time ago. Thou shalt not blunder.
Anyone who doesn’t blunder is hard to beat.
