@Karl7 Those 18 tanks and all those mech in Russia with nothing better to do I think is the nail in the coffin. I am going to do some risky battles and see if they pay off.

[jim010]

@jim010 I cannot see a path forward for me. I am under odds everywhere, and all those left over german tanks are going to steamroll India, and then Turkey.

I surrender
