[Gargantua]

Hmm…

We have a problem.  I wanted to change my NCM into Romania, but it won’t let me. Says I “transported” the units there.

Will try to remove the 3 tanks there on that save file just posted.  Hang on.

[Gargantua]

Hmm…

It won’t let me remove the tanks in Romania…  Give russia 10 tanks, and attack romania obliterating the force there.  Then remove any excess your tanks.

Romania should be empty.  all my armor I’ve added to Slovakia.

[Witt]

Well done. A because I was so scared of losing Gib, that I left 8 there instead of 6 and 6 in Morocco.
Am at work. Will look tonight or tomorrow morning. Do not wait up!

[Gargantua]

Just dont forget to remove those blasted tiger tanks from Romania, they are phantom units, and should NOT be on the board.

[Witt]

Might leave them. Think you need some help in this game!

[Gargantua]

In continuing I propose the following.

At the end of this round the allies receive the following:

Russia
1- Improved artillery
2- Improved Mechanized infantry

USA
1- Paratroopers
2- Super Subs

Britain
1- Long Range Aircraft
2- RADAR

China
1- War Bonds
2- Improved Artillery

ANZAC
1- War Bonds
2- Shipyards

But I also propose that the door to technology be opened! Allowing the axis to attempt to catch up in the Tech War!  Or the allies to stay ahead…

[Witt]

Thank you for the offer and time spent considering which Tech would most help by beleaguered forces, I will refuse you though. I am a stubborn bast ard.
If we play again, I will allow Tech from the start if that is what you like.

Please bring the war to its conclusion. I await your two pronged onslaught.
It has been close at times, but you have deserved the victory. As long as you are not bored, I am happy to continue to frustrate you where I can.
I know what I would be doing in the game if I were you. Let’s see if I am right!

[Gargantua]

Please enjoy making your next move. :)

You really have had bad luck when it comes to Convoy rolls.

It’s been the difference of how I’ve managed to stay in the game… the fact that my merchant marine keeps getting through with desperately needed supplies!

Statistically, you should block 1 IPC per dice rolled in a zone.  I think you’re only scoring half of that at the moment.

Phew…

[Witt]

Thank you. I had hoped for more off Italy.
Won’t get many more chances to rape them and it is my only way to wrest control of Egypt.
I am aware you can win without taking Moscow and realise how tantalisingly close you are to Stalingrad. Retaking Egypt would see me breathing more freely.

The whole game I have tried to prevent the European win, but have been ever watchful of a slant eyed stab from the other direction. You made me buy defensively as Anzac last turn and it has slowed me and frustrated my agressive urges with those unusually tall soldiers.
