Oops! I made 7 Units for England, without looking to see how many it can produce. Apparently, it is only 4!
Should have bought a Ft, knowing that the damn AA never misses in this game. Wayne: feel free to take a shot at  my somewhat understrength fleet.

It also appears, I have mixed up the identical looking Inf and Marine and placed the Inf in England instead of the 3 Marines. I will edit them the other way round.

[captainwalker]

After the horrible dice in Bombay I’m about ready to end this game.

[Witt]

Sorry Capt Walker. Winning that battle was a possibility and would have handed the initiative back to you two. It might be too much in out favour now.
I don’t mind if you want to stop playing. Thank you for joining us.
Enjoy your day.

[captainwalker]

We’ll have to see what Wayne says…he may feel the same way after Russia moves.

[dawgoneit]

yes I was feeling our nuts were in a vise

[Witt]

Ow! You can’t carry on.
Probably should not play anymore  today, as I have chores to do and girls to collect from school. If you change  your minds, I can do US/Russia tomorrow.
Good day both.

[captainwalker]

Go ahead and do US/Russia…maybe we’ll luck out and you’ll get bad dice.
We’ll decide whether to go on after we see the map.
Have a good day also!
