L13 G40 Ziggurat (Axis) vs Fortress (Allies+9)

No issues, that makes complete sense. I’m probably going to bail as soon as the carrier gets tipped, so totally understand. Though, if you have more than two hits left after round 1 I’m gonna be severely ticked. I just try to do as much ahead of time as possible because of my inconvenient schedule. I’m buying at least 1 bomber and 2 german subs in the med. Not going to let you keep Italy down without a tremendous fight. Those are the absolute best kind :).

In my exuberance I forgot to save the file before attacking. I got 7 hits in 97, you have one thing left. What shall it be? I bought 1 bomber, 2 subs, 1 tank, 1 mech, 7 inf, 3 art. Attacking normandy (2 tanks 1 mech) and yugo (4 tanks 4 inf). Your massive 97 stack saved Russia for a turn… :(.

God damn your chicken!!!

Yikes, that battle in Hong Kong nearly gave me a conniption fit. This game should come with a surgeon general’s warning…. At least that air battle went how I expected. I probably would’ve conceded if that was another Taranto :P. And damn you for that move to SZ7, made me buy an airfield out in the middle of nowhere :P.

Hmmm, it never even occurred to me that you’d go for that… No scramble, I’ll chance it on the invade. Go AA guns! Kamikaze orders: 1 for each hit point. 1 on both cruisers and destroyers, 2 on the battleship please. Good luck. I love these fun battles :).

I’m sorry about your Japan invasion :(. I actually wanted you to succeed because I didn’t want to be left off the hook for missing the fact that 2 planes could reach from midway. That was a really dumb oversight. On the other hand, looks like we might actually have a good game now :P. If only I could do a damn thing against those dumb neutrals :(.
