HOF V4 - Totalize

[aksully]

It seems the Japanese got a bit of fighting spirit restored after their nap

 

[Elephantium]

Sully chap, the Japanese fighting spirit is one of our greatest challenges in this war. Never fret; we'll manage.

Bow...come out of the bunker...you have a save on the doorsteps.....

 

[eric_A]

Now the Chinese have an option, move further south and risk oblivion, or surrender their forces now, the choice is theirs. The British have now lost an Army because they foolishly moved far too close to our territory, go back before it is too late.

Ancient Chinese proverb says:

He who taunts the dragon had best be wearing asbestos undies.

 

[Bowsling]

Bow...come out of the bunker...you have a save on the doorsteps.....

Been a busy couple days. I might get to this Wednesday, if not, it'll be the weekend. Try me at Nuremberg for late saves if you will.

 

[aksully]

Hey Bow...with all respect here...either play or ask CH to do so. We always make allowances but this is also why we have partners to back us up. Otherwise it turns out like AoI....Right?

 

[Elephantium]

No kidding. It's been a full week. I get that life happens, but this is officially ridiculous.

 

[aksully]

CH....looks like you better play the German turn...we've all been more than patient waiting on Bow......

 

[classical_hero]

I'll do it later today.

[classical_hero]

I have asked Bowsling to play the Minor Axis turn, since I am no feeling too well. I forwarded him the save.

 

[aksully]

Bow,
Will you be able to play the save to help out CH?

 

[aksully]

Hey CH....Bow hasn't logged on since 15 Sep...not sure you can count on him to play the turn. So it might just be better if we wait on you to play. You've really done a great job being the pillar of the Axis side. Hang in there and hope you are feeling better!

 

[classical_hero]

I will see how I feel either latter today, or sometime tomorrow. no guarantees, though.
