do you know if you will move again tonight? just seein if i should keep occasionally refreshing

[FMErwinRommel]

Sorry, just checked my email.  Been struggling with Axis turn all eve.  ITA and then GER could suicide against MOR or EGY but TR would be sunk.  EGY can be reinforced by FR, RUS and S AFR air.  The tide has turned so fast.  UK can build at will elsewhere once it had ten inf in UK.  My blitz on RUS stalled and now must turn west.  Think I’ve got it figured out for ITA shortly

[FMErwinRommel]

Sorry, but will sleep on it.  Looks hopeless.

ugh, that 99 battle changes things. had a 97% chance of winning :'(

[FMErwinRommel]

Same as or worse than ITA failed 2 fi on cruiser by Malta and I was spared 3 transports.  UK has been able to spend all its money in Africa and now Middle East with no worries for homeland.  Ignoring most bomb damage. 
As previously posted, please consider letting me NCM all Ger units in Baltic States>E. Pol.

[Colt45554]

Didnt see that but yeah go for it

[FMErwinRommel]

Thanks.  Brit has the luxury of not building units in homeland for defense or to support USA.  RUS is doing fine without help from Allies, which is unusual.  The IC in Persia is interesting.  Another stroke of luck for Axis was the Italian suicide attack against the S. Afr 3 fighters, taking them down with them in flames of glory.  +17 points and loss of mobility for UK.
