@JWWII said in JWW (Allies+8) vs Simon33 (Axis) BM3:

@simon33 and for good measure the germans rolled 6 hits for 13 @ 2 in France for 20 hits for 49 dice, not quite 50% but pretty close…You’ve got my number…I can’t touch you it seems.

You had to get pretty luck to win. Perhaps you expected to have more planes survive who could have just flown out.

@JWWII Yep, first thing.

@simon33 I assumed your Germans would have demolished me by this time today?

Yeah, had a few things on. Anyway, are going to lose the AA Guns in Normandy?

Mis-click BTW. I wanted to do the Normandy battle last.

@JWWII said in JWW (Allies+8) vs Simon33 (Axis) BM3:

@simon33, Chi didn’t want to fight it seemed…I should take a cue from them I think…

I think it’s a little early to concede. Unless you feel that the writing is on the wall I guess. 11 rounds in and USSR are still making 23. Could be much worse.
