all right, good game. No need to continue this painfull road to death. I have nothing here. Next round at this junction you are making more money than me and we all know what that means.

Good luck in next round

wow really?! to me it feels premature to throw in the towel, as axis still has a lot of work left to achieve even its initial major objectives, like Moscow and India. especially euro axis, which is facing some significant pressure.

[oysteilo]

@axis-dominion i dont see any other options than a slowly death. I am done with this. Poor judgement by me, a better opponent, what can possibly go right from here?

[JDOW]

It was surprising you didn‘t Norway the last turn. What made you not do it? And I agree with AD. Although the Axis position was solid I found the resignation premature. Certainly, a slow death was on the table but you didn’t even try to make a bold move and wait what Marti says. Btw. I would have certainly gone for the Jap fleet when you has the chance. Annoying you forgot units there but this could have imo been a game changer. 3 tts at stake was big.

Yah I agree, especially about forgoing the easy Norway take. I was really surprised by that. I totally had given up on trying to defend it, in favor of pushing harder on Russia to make that breakthrough.

[JDOW]

Sorry for the language. Typing on cell sucks:-)

[oysteilo]

I think both of you answer your own questions. So what is in there for me? Combined with horrible pacific play early on. I just dont want the hassle. The outcome is given. I have seen this before

[oysteilo]

The pacific battle could have been a game changer, but when you fail to bring on all your stuff, you only deserve death.

[axis-dominion]

Well ok, if you insist it’s over, then I will say good game. Sorry it had to end this way. I was expecting a good fight but I can understand how you feel, as it can be demoralizing when you look back at mistakes or bad decisions that you regret.

[oysteilo]

@axis-dominion thanks. It’s better to leave it like this, maybe we can start another game later this year.
