Well my friend and master of destruction…I concede. Losing Cairo was the icing on the cake. After looking at the map, I realize far too many blunders on my part to even continue this massacre…besides I want a rematch in 1.5.2.1  :-D

[Gargantua]

I was just getting the party started!

Damn!

Man… I have to say, for a few turns there - I thought you had Berlin.

[Guest]

So did I but messed up by forgetting to offload UK troops, messed up the convoy zones….but not next time  8-)

[Gargantua]

I wondered about that…  but Thought hell, even if the british managed to take Hanover, come hell or high water, I wasn’t going to give up Berlin without the fight of a century.

I sure learned some lessons about the importance of East Prussia - and building the maxium there each turn, and atleast half the production capacity of BERLIN.

Do you want to play as Allies again in 1.5.2.1?  Or Central Powers?

Honestly, I think the Allies get an easier time of things! :P

[Guest]

Oh I definitely want the Allies to take down the evil alliance of the Central Powers….and yes, 1.5.2.1 please  :-D
