Couldn’t have picked a worse time to roll sh*t dice, not to mention I forgot to move my UK transports last turn.

To hell with it, this one’s over.  Good game, I’ll post the result.

yeah, that was unbelievable bad luck on those rolls. Truly.

I’d be happy to try again, since I’m liking this no VCs scenario. Relieves the pressure somewhat for the allies so they can build and strategize more - not a race against time.

Interested?

I’d definitely be into a re-match, but I need a bit of a break. I’ve been playing like mad the last few weeks and I’m a bit burned out.

How about I send you a PM in about a week or so?

[Odonis]

sure - it was a great game up until that point - logjam in the ME had me frustrated!
