no problem. Myself I’m moving in Germany next week ; I should have a correct connexion there, but dunno for sure until I’ll be there.

This looks very grim……EGY was a real disaster considering my bid…

this doesn’t make a lot of sense but i feel compelled to follow through with my original plans in spite of the current situation….a recipe foe disaster.

OK Yoshi…I give.

sorry this game was so quick and uneventful.

My 2 ss bid failed miserably when EGY was wiped out on T1.

I apologise for the game being such as disappointment. GL the rest of the way and GL with your move…

[Yoshi]

I understand, and indeed Egypt almost closed the game. Maybe with a 15 ipc bid that could work out ?

But nevertheless, I’m not sure that it’s a good bid. To my mind, one infantry in Egypt is almost mandatory.

This game almost cannot provide any hint abou your strat, due to the dice. But I think that something similar to my G1 should be kept in mind to know if this strat can be valid or not.

Cheers,

Yoshi
