Hmm, I find this resignation comes really prematurely. I agree that Axis are in a potent spot after the sea lion which is often a certain path to demise for Germany, but his is BM and Russia has 52 to spend and will stay at about 50 for the next turn either! So it is a LOOONG way for the Germans to achieve VC victory.

India is safe for a while so Allied could play hard against Germans with US for 1-2 turns more. they could even park their fleet in sz109 leaving the Germans at -8 next turn which keeps Russia almost similar to Germans income wise.

I would have certainly continued this game for a while. Sea lion games look good TUV-wise for the Axis but they that be create the wrong impression.

And don’t get me wrong, I don’t say Allies are winning or so but this is not entirely in the bag in my opinion.

Anyway, gratz alex, well played!

Lot of non-game related reasons, explained to me via PM. Balladeer is way too good a player to have given up in other circumstances.

Just saying, so no one gets a wrong impression.

Thx, Balladeer, as always a pleasure playing you.
