ruskicanuck and I are on turn 20 of our games but it's slow going due to the time zones that we are in, which means that we can usually only get in one turn each day due to selfish considerations such as work and sleep :D . We made some progress over the weekend but still far from finishing.

Hmm .. for some reason my other half takes exception to me staying up until 2 am to play 'that game'. I just don't understand it :shock:

Haven't heard from Shards in awhile (or anyone from Slitherine for that matter); is the annual company get-away to sunny Blackpool/Brighton happening now?

Crazy close battles between Tapirman and I

In both cases, the germans won

How are such cases resolved? I won in 1 less turn than Tapirman but he shot down more German planes than I. I think we were basically evenly matched I'd be fine with either advancing. Attached the screenshot. Very fun to play with you Tapirman, very tense duel.

What was the number of radar stations destroyed in both games?
Shards tought that would be a good tie breaker.

As ruskicanuk has said, incredibly close indeed. It was a real knock 'em down and drag 'em out dogfight, I thoroughly enjoyed it and we were very well matched. Thanks ruskicanuk for two great and well fought games; to echo you, I'd be fine with either of us progressing on Erik and Shards judgement.

I've attached final screenshots of the two games and replays for those of you who like brutal and bloody air combat.

Based on that, i think tapirman wins but ofc Erik will confirm.

Looks like the no of radio stations lost/destroyed was the same, but that Tapirman killed 18 air units and lost 13.
If I get the info correct off the screenshots, Tapirman manages a very close win.

How did the 13obob vs RuiMarques games end? i seem to have missed any annuncement on these.

Other than that, the only games still going on are between dolphin0810 vs LynxCom.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Seems reasonable to me - good luck Tapirman!
