Allies surrender!

Thank for a great game Wheatbeer.  I will post in results thread.

Thanks to you as well for a good match.

How are your other custom bid games going? It seems like a powerful alternative to convention bids.

Well I have a game with Dutchman with war bonds for Russia, UK and USA and I will probably lose eventually but it seems to let me hold out a lot longer against superior players.  I think war bonds for Russia and a sub in z9 would even things up with two equally good but not outstanding players.
