I was hoping that the luck I didn’t get against Denmark would come back with my invasion of Egypt.  No such luck!

The axis have met victory conditions. You have one round to take back a vc…I don’t see the western allies being able to do that so I think that’s the end of the game.
You’re playing has greatly improved since we first started…I hope you do well in your league games!

Good game.  I’m going to try with my surviving Ruskies to take back one of the VC, but it’s unlikely.  Thank you for the games and all the teaching!  I do think I’m getting better.  I am looking forward to my next ftf game, but I don’t know when that’ll happen since my gaming buddy just had his second kid.

[captainwalker]

I haven’t played a ftf game in years. It seems as you get older there are just too many other things going on to have the time to get together. I hope you and your regular opponent can get together soon…you can show him some of the tactics you’ve learned on the forums!

[Entek]

We haven’t played since around Thanksgiving 2011.  I hope we can get at least one game in this year!  We don’t have a copy of Second Edition yet, but I hope to pick them up some time this year.  If so I am pretty sure I can get some one to play with me!
