Wow - I did not even realize that - until you said something. I guess I should have gone after Egypt earlier - but - forgot the official victory conditions…though, I figured getting Egypt was a huge problem for the Allies.

At any rate - GG to you too - certainly a long one - proving that Germany taking Russia does NOT mean instant win. I am almost afraid to review the game to see how many mistakes I probably made - but need to learn from.

I really should try a game as the Allies sometime - though, I am sure I will fair well - if you are up for a ‘casual’ game - since we hit our 3 game max in league play - let me know - I’d like to take the Allies.

Take care
