1942.2 total vic. w/ int: Zombie69 (Axis) vs Commando Brado (Allies + 12)

I added a SBR to Caucasus during the Russian turn, instead of a FTR. I’ll fix on the Brit turn.

Decided to make a non-combat change during the Placement phase, using Edit Mode.

Hmm, let me think about it. Shouldn’t change the Japanese turn.

I’ll move the Brit DD to SZ34.

I will submerge.

Coulda, shoulda, woulda. If I had the Sub fight, I probably would have got my butt kicked. Can’t 2nd quess the best decision. By fighting, according to the odds calculator, it only increased your losses by a few IPC’s. Wasn’t worth it. Hindsight is 20/20.

The Russian Sub in SZ10 will fight. I didn’t see that the German bomber in N.W. Europe could reach SZ10 until after I attacked SZ10 w/the US. Still getting used to this map vs. the Global map. In Caucasus, I had different plans for that territory after Russian Turn 1. After looking at how things turned out in Russia. Decided to do something different. I’ll chalk it up to learning a different version of A&A.  :-(  :x  :oops:  :cry:

In Caucasus, lose the Brit bomber first. Russian Inf 2nd.

I’ll let you roll the battle. Again, don’t want to deny you the pleasure. It seems like the person who rolls the battles gets bad luck.  :wink: Maybe you’ll get back luck again like SZ53. Caucasus is hopeless but maybe in SZ10 I can at least kill the 2 Subs.  :-P
