@VictoryFirst said in 2025 Classic tournament round 1 Gamerman01 v VictoryFirst (Axis):

in the end it worked out beautifully.

I had lucky results in China J1, and again against the Japanese battleships and loaded carrier off French Indo China

The Japanese fleet was more important than normal because only one factory was built

Very gracious, thank you!

@Martin Yes the “miss” on my part was using Japan’s bomber offensively when it could have at least NCM’d from Manchuria -> Germany to give one more HP to the units there. That might have made some level of difference in the final fight but in hindsight, once the UK air got as many kills as it did it was unlikely that Germany was going to survive.

Good luck to you as well!

@VictoryFirst Thank you, done!

Unpinned - because of inactivty.

Is best if you PM bids to each other, thanks
