the Iraq troops rolled extremely well. They were very motivated in real life too. A little piece of WW2 history that largely goes unnoticed is the nationalism and admiration of Hitler in many parts of mid east along with their similar distrust of jews.

Why didn’t you go straight to Bry?  Mos doesn’t have the strength to attack Ger there

[Colt45554]

Wasn’t safe enough for my liking. I was far too aggressive in our second match and I don’t feel threatened by any area of the board at this time so time isn’t much of a factor for me.

[Colt45554]

Splitting your navy north and south confuses me. I’m yet to figure out the move to Icelandic waters, as 106 wouldve threatened convoy hunters just as well
