Welcome back :)!  I hope you enjoyed your holiday.

I tried to attack your Germany homeland now.  Please note that I took your AA gun instead of infantry away.  if you would rather keep AA gun feel free to edit and replace that with an artillery.

I thought my Russia won’t hold for long a while back and am happy to see it is still in the game…  Got some lucky dices in key battle probably.

[innohub]

Sounds like a great time.  I love watching football to when I was in college.  (In the past we watch soccer more).  It is particularly satisfying when you see your home team winning  :lol:

[Witt]

Nice move. Did not see the Karelian Armour loading up on your Transport. Missed that, although I had attacked it in order to Eliminate your Tanks.
Can I not recover do you think?
Have not downloaded game.

[innohub]

Thank you.    :lol:  I think in order for you to recover you need to either take out Russia immediately, or try to hold 3 VCs by end of a turn.  My India will fall likely from what it looks now, and if you hold the top Russia land that means you just need 1 more after Germany is recaptured.

I haven’t played with the Russia round yet, will do it later after work.

Cheers,

That was a disaster!

[innohub]

Sorry for seeing this happen.  If it were me I would be frustrating too.

[Witt]

I had half a chance of taking Moscow with Japan afterwards. opportunity lost now.
You cleverly sent your US TT to Canada and have 2 units to drop in France, so I was never going to win, but was the plan until I lost Germany. Am happy to play on, but I cannot turn it around, as long as you build in the Pacific as the US, of course!
