Hi all, I’d be down to play any of the three games, though I have no experience with PtV.

Thank you gamerman, I have already read the rules to avoid wasting other people’s times, but I appreciate you directing me to it regardless.

You have a point MuddSlinger, everyone starts somewhere. I’d be down to start a PtV game with you.

Good point, you choose casualties before rolling defense. And likely even with my bad attack rolls you would’ve played it safe, and chosen the slightly more valuable but worse defenders the cruisers first. Having no idea how bad or good your defensive rolls would be.

L24 PTV nikola1975 (X+8) over Hythem (A)

Match ended lightning fast because of a major blunder round 1 and a backfired risk fight shortly after. Well played.

Did I do it right?

If I scramble from gib to sz94 and planes survive, can my surviving planes land on Algeria?

If yes, full scramble from Gibralter to sz94

SHIT! I forgot Subs can cross Gibraltar

Sorry, I am not done yet. This game is making my head spin. Just posting this here after making some progress so that I’d continue later.

And wow, nice to hear you went to Egypt. You didn’t miss much by skipping Alexandria honestly. Somehow it was even filthier than Cairo.

Overrated, somehow it was filthier than Cairo. But I still had a great time with friends there.

Sorry, I take full responsibility for the delay. The last 4 days I was at Alexandria. But otherwise the rest of the days are just me failing to be punctual.

I wouldn’t have minded taking the loss honestly, as you said you have the right to it. If you prefer suspending it that also is fine with me. I appreciate it.
