Yeah, the purchase of 8 transports pretty much commits me to this offensive on North America. Whether or not it’s a good idea is another matter.

Italy takes the day off. you may proceed with the US turn.

Well it looks like we won’t find out how the North American battle went since I forgot to bring the Italian transports to sz64. I must be going senile. It looked so good in my head.

I’m pretty sure this one is over. Berlin is secure and Russia is cut off from UK reinforcements so it’s just a matter of time before Russia goes down.

But, since this game was obviously a lopsided dice victory, which I absolutely loathe, I am going to propose a deal. We put this game on hold and play another game. If you win the second game, I’ll take the win in this one and we’ll both go on record at 1-1. If I win the second game, I get the win for that game and this one gets wiped out as a draw.
