Story of this game for Italy. I had 93% chance to take italy, but you destroyed me and i only killed 4/11 infantries. Taranto had around 85% and you lost 1 boat!

It was my only chance at capturing a victory city to keep the game going. I concede, well done sir. You certainly showed me a few tricks. Rematch - me as axis?

[arathorn]

I am glad you could see a few new things.

I can rematch you. Do you really want to be Axis or do you want to do the Allies again?

I just love playing the Axis. But I’ll play the Allies if you want to.

[atease]

Alright go with Axis. I’m still learning about the finer points of the game - and if Taranto goes well we’ll have a very different game!

[atease]

G40 instead of europe?

[arathorn]

Yes, let’s do G40.

[atease]

as youre axis, start one whenever.

[arathorn]

Yes, I’ll get the game ready.
