probably a good move. Forgot that you can get some of your stack to Egypt by attacking and retreating, but that attack should be pretty painful for you. Wish I had those 12 inf in Eire but I felt I needed to maintain a threat on UK to keep you from going all in in the med. Havent run numbers yet but still looks like it could go either way.

Yeah, we will see how it goes. I haven’t tried to calculate what the odds will be on future combats in Egypt or elsewhere (I just made certain that I had enough in Iraq that it is risky for you.) I thought about trying to commit to the Med, committing to 110, and holding near Spain to threaten in both directions. It seemed likely that if I really committed to the Med I could hold Egypt (or take Italy) but that I would have trouble keeping London.This way, I think you are probably in a position to get near 100% odds on Egypt if you commit all your air, but I’m hoping that that might be difficult to do and keep Europe safe. We will see.

lol. Yeah I was just thinking that the number of 3/2 rolls I have had is pretty incredible.

Also irritated that I didn’t think you might drop a destroyer in 110. Those US inf didn’t need to land. Just did it out of habit.

French and Anzac can probably deal with it but nothing else Italians need to do at this point. But yeah, I hear ya.
