L22 Pejon_88 (X) vs. Gamerman01 (A+15), BM4, game #2

@gamerman01 Indeed! I’m not good enough to anticipate if it was the right move.

@gamerman01 Are you sure? Would’ve been nice to keep a BB etc. but fighting for Egypt is a primary goal for Italy right now, I think. What’s your thoughts?

@gamerman01 What do you mean? I had to go with the navy since Anzac and France were in between? If you look at my NCM I first only moved my trannie which would’ve been sunk?

@gamerman01 Yeah that was crazy.

@gamerman01 I do agree that if I can play a steady EU axis game, I will probably make it.

@gamerman01 Please explain this part, sorry

“I can’t hold Russia with a 5 infantry swing, plus losing 2 IPCs, plus Germany buying there immediately.”

Thanks!

@pejon_88 Oh you mean Ukraine, now i get it!

@pejon_88 I liked your Rostov stacking. One obvious downside to it is that Novgorod forces can assist in threatening Bryansk.

@gamerman01 Haha!! To be honest, I am quite confident in my German defense game. I think, currently you are unable to land anywhere safely. I’m gonna double check ;)

Maybe played that turn a bit too fast for my own good, but feel I have a solid defense. What did I miss…? :O
