[Karl7]

ok, is there any way I can win this?

[Shin-Ji]

Not that I can see.  But I’ve been surprised before.

[Karl7]

Bah, I took a chance and attacked Southern Italy.  But it was a rout.

My thinking was maybe I could take Stalingrad with the USSR and then disrupt the Axis by sacking rome…. it was a prayer… that was not answered.

So I conceded.

Losing Egypt R1 really killed the Allies. My only hope I figured was to kill Japan quick enough to round back to Europe.  But I was just a turn or 2 short.  Thinking about it, I should have kept with the original plan and took Norway/or sailed north to launch the Ftrs to Moscow. Oh well…

GG

[Shin-Ji]

Well, your Japan plan went off without a hitch, so there’s that!

[Shin-Ji]

So that puts our record at 2-1 in your favor.

Want to keep going?  If so, I’ll open with the bid of 20 for the Allies.

[Karl7]

yes, we must go on…

16

[Shin-Ji]

OK, at 16 it’s yours!  How would you like that?

[Karl7]

@Shin:

OK, at 16 it’s yours!  How would you like that?

DOh, I was sure you’d go 15!

Foiled again!
