I also forgot about the lonesome ANZAC Dude.
This will bring the downfall of Italy
It will be the destruction of those Ita ships. That is for sure. -
very unfortunate - especially since it could have easily been prevented. I even considered (without thinking of the ANZAC Dude) to land some troops on that side of the canal.
Anyway, looks like your victory is getting close

The loss of the ITA navy is inevitable, if that is what the Allies want. Your style, at least this game has been very aggressive. This of course comes with risk, as we have already traded lots of naval and air materiel. Even if I hadn’t opened the canal I could have defended EGY the following turn. This was my initial plan. You still have the Pacific if Europe turns bleak…

Yes, the Italian Navy cannot prevail if the Allies really want to sink it - but I had hoped it would either stay around as a fleet in being for another 1-2 rounds - or go down with an at least equal TUV swing.
But now it will sink with an average TUV swing of 47.
:fearful:Anyway - I still enjoy the game and who knows maybe the Italian Navy will score hits like the Siberian defenders in the first round ;-)

@666
Sorry for the delay - but on the positive side for the Allies the Brits gave a tough fight in the med -

@Gorshak - those two coin flip battles that you won with the Italains in ALG on T1 and then in EGY were really huge. Kudo’s to you for taking those risks. If your style stays the same there is another below odds battle coming up.
-
I do not mind a risky attack if the situation is desparate and/or a win would gain a significant strategic advantage. But normally I prefer a solid attack with a positive TUV swing.
This attack is tempting me - but I am not sure yet. If Germany wins (32%) then it will be a major setback for the Allies - strategically and economically.
If I lose it will not be a disaster but also significantly worsen my overall situation (which is already pretty fragile but not yet desparate).
