@Alexander

Hello sir,

I am afraid you are 1 turn to early.
On the next turn you need to prepare the take over by purchasing the "Take Over Italy" token and place it in 2nd placement phase.
This will convert most of the Italian units into German units. Some need to be changed manually (LCV, Air transports mainly)

Feel free to adjust and re-do you Italian turn.

Hello Lads,

@Trout I hope business travel went well, and
@beelee that your computer is running again.

Things are getting tight....everywhere!

That's a great question. I'll never tell but in the games I have played here all the guys seem to not do what the guys in Denmark do. Maybe they don't have access to those games like I do... who knows, lol

@beelee

Hehe, I also missed my turn.
The more days are between my turns, the more I need to get back in the game and what my initial plan was 🙂
Bute some wine and some beers usually helps to bring back memories.

That DOW from Japan on Russia was not in my plan, I am sure...

Thanks. this evening.

@trout

Heh heh, I thought I left Egypt a little weak and it would fall. That's why I had to keep taking Alexandria with more Units Than I preferred. Otherwise it'd open up a landing spot for European Air.

But yea, the Kill shot on London was obviously the way to go 🙂 Hopefully I've finally learned my lesson 🙂

@ubernaut hey

@johnnycat said in EXP G40 Game 4 Trout vs JCat:

What do
You recommend I do next ?

As this is a game thread I recommend to focus on the game again.
Apart from that see your PM.

@alexander

Hi Alex 🙂

Yea I like SSR/ANZC/FRN and USA/UK/China but you guys dial it in as you like 🙂

I'm gonna bust G1 in a bit. Remember to get 2.55 🙂

@panzerstahl-helm-0 Wow! Looking at that final turn you posted, it is clear that another turn or two and Moscow was going to fall. Finally an Allied victory which took everything I could put into it. I was feeling pretty good about things but your Takeover was masterfully done and after that the Reich war machine was out of control and the Allies had only so much time before Moscow was going down. Always great fun playing you sir. Let me know when you are ready for the next one. Until then, thanks again for joining battle with me.

@beelee Congrats! My fatal mistake which I only could have overcome I believe if you had made one yourself or if you were an inferior player was that I forgot that you could attack USN and not ANZAC if you had not yet declared war on them. So my USN got wiped out in an early turn. I did learn something from playing this out because I am very surprised that the game even lasted 15 rounds. Well, let me know when you are ready for the next one.

For the Multi, I have not yet finished the UK turn but the Tokyo attack was successful. Now brace for impact on the counter attack. The US/UK attack on SZ 91 was a disaster though. Only survivors were the Heavy Bomber and Fighter Ace. He only lost 10 U-Boats.
