Thors Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Slow cruising around the Med looking for a new home, with only the Italians letting them have a temporary Visa. -Original plans where impractical after launch, so they were docked and made a nice magnet for Algerian aircraft to get blasted out of the air by Italian FC!

Mickey Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Word has it that due to lack of volunteers, they need to press convicted criminals into service as pilots for the fighter escort of Algeria's heavy bombers. Really not an enviable job... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thors Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 The first of Spain's provinces of the Pyrenees have been captured. Valiant attempts to thwart the advance/block retreat and supply lines were noted, but also have been rendered moot. The troop numbers are just too unequal. Of worthy note, were the Spanish ME 262's on FC. Reality aside, it's pretty cool how these jets blow past propeller driven fighters to get at the bombers! Enemy shipping from Gibraltar to Malta meet continued and increasing harassment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have armies sitting around in morocco and thousands of arm points that should have been in france. Now if you want to come to Africa....

We were counting on a heavy influx in xValencia and xBordeaux that would give us big headaches... instead we only found a handful of damaged (in your case very badly damaged) divisions as only proof of african presence in mainland Europe (yet).

When you guys closed shop in the Spain/France area, we assumed you had your hands full in the Middle East. When we saw the ports revert back to Spain it was an "oh well" moment, as it would have spiced things up for us had you stayed. Se la vie.

Marklen X Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Uh, Bordeaux has never been in my hands, and the others I have basically owned all along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marklen X Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 That is true, way back before this war started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thors Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Our maps show on tech 48, Morocco owned Barcelona, and Algeria owned Valencia. That's just 10 turns ago. Furthermore, Spain was at war with Italy. Either our information was outdated by 48, or your recollection is off. Possibly both. Spain has attacked Italy at xMarseilles with a tactical air strike on Tuesday, April 15, 2014 (Tech 48) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sun Tzu Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Too quiet here for the last 10 techs! How's the war in the Middle East doing? Just having fun killing Rumanian armies...and fighter pilots! Enjoy. Almost 12,000 airpoints destroyed last turn. The occupation of Syria nears it's completion. Still time enough to also conquer TJ !
