Man, this turn took me ages. Can’t remember when a turn was causing me so many headache.

Thanks for the game Karl!

Not sure either. My best guess: You bought 3 subs+2 fighters in round 4 (38 TUV!). Had you invested in ground troops there, I don’t think I could have stopped you from holding Ukraine and its factory. This is important since Italy can can-open rostov for you to threaten Stalingrad+Caucasus.

Also, Italy was weak all game long, even from the beginning. Had Italy been a little stronger, at least getting the Med-Bonus, it would have been different.
