@Sovietishcat

We want it badly. So badly I need an OOL for Moscow on Italy’s turn. 3 fighters and 4 bombers attacking, so you can expect 3-5 hits. Lose bombers? AAA?

3 hits on Italy’s Moscow attack. Game took 3 AAA but if you’d prefer something else, be sure to edit it because I suspect Germany is going to attack on its turn.

@Sovietishcat

So here is my pickle… send two units off to Rostov to block the UK for a turn and save me some hassle? But it’ll reduce my odds of victory and cost me an estimated 4-6 units in the battle for Moscow…

@Sovietishcat

I’m going with door #1, no Rostov. I should lose fewer planes that way.

@Sovietishcat

My favorite thing about battle for Moscow… “Russians select 42 casualties”… “Germans select 42 casualties”
