Brought it, and cleared it! :D

Didn’t get so lucky in Anglo Egypt though.  VERY lucky for you!

And here we see the scewed view the results of the dice battles have forced on us that a failed battle with low odds for the attacker is considered a big success for the defender.

That Frenchie is FINALLY dead and he went out taking another guy with him. The 2 original French dudes in Normandy killed 3 infantry, 3mech, and an aa gun whilst taking 2 territories and defending in 2 other battles. Now that that mess is sorted out, Yugo is next on my list. Maybe just maybe I might have a shot still in Europe now that the French are no more on continental Europe. Call me crazy, but the people rejoiced!
