double check your usa purchases 6 bmbs cost 72

[corriganbp]

re-read the rule for the USA one time NO, you only have to take either Holland or Normandy, but you do need to hold it with at least 3 land units.

[Guest]

Oh yeah look at that. I guess I missed that NO.  whatever

Th6 was a typo. there should be 5 Bmbs, 1 inf, 1 transport.

also, 1 NCM correction:
the 2 Bmbs from Gib go to Central US; not Western US
