19L BM3 Owentoo (X) vs FMErwinRommel (A) NoBid

FMErwinRommel

Despite your failed attack on Bry, you have enough new troops arriving to defeat me if I stayed there. So we retreat to Moscow and the first contingent of the Siberian army will arrive in time. I wanted to get rid of the pesky Italians, so I gambled on not losing a plane. I didn’t roll great, but I put enough units in to ensure that I won. But my tank lost to your anti-tank gun in Arch.

Submerge or fight with American sub in SZ 5 ?

FMErwinRommel

submerge please didn’t think you would bring your whole fleet there

OwenToo

Totally missed intended fighters attacking TT in SZ17… if you will allow it, I would remove the TT

OwenToo

My fighters were sitting idly in SZ 19

FMErwinRommel

Go ahead and remove the TT.

OwenToo

Thanks. Not very lucky on my die rolls, am I ?

What was that, one out of 18 that you would get 3 hits?

Submerge Germ sub in sz125? USA attacking with bomber & sub. Germ defending with DD and optional sub.

FMErwinRommel

Japan 5 CVs again. Don’t normally see Japan build that many. Easy for Japan, since it already has planes for them. U.S. has to spend more for planes than the CV, so can’t build much else in one turn.

OwenToo

Sub submerges…

OwenToo

Yes, it is a lot easier for Japan to fully equip CVs on station… 16 IPCs vs 36 for the Americans. And I have not seen the U.S. be so aggressive so early against the Japanese fleets. I guess we are both seeing new things…

FMErwinRommel

The U.S. has to spend a lot to build an Atlantic fleet that can withstand Germ bombers & subs. And the U.S. can’t move from E. Coast until DOW. But it can move out from W. Coast immediately. So U.S. can get a head start in the Pacific.

FMErwinRommel

please ignore the first marti’s. I was testing the U.S. sub in sz5 to see if it could leave with or without submerging. Didn’t mean to do it live.

FMErwinRommel

At first I thought that the American sub could leave sz5, but then realized if it submerged, that it couldn’t move in NCM. So I tested to see if it could stay without being hit, but no. So I chose to stay and be attacked by you on your turn.
