Parthia has become my everything. All three of its allies are hurting and two are directly counting on it. Crucial decisions. Expect the game post in 11 hours.

[Witt]

Of course. Goodnight.

Nice income collection.

Off to work now. Not sure I can do a go tomorrow: at 10am I have another hospital appointment about my blurred vision. It would seem it is somewhat serious.
Talk tomorrow. Have a pleasant weekend.

[Colt45554]

I hope your eye gets better! Have a nice weekend.

[Witt]

I looks at the map, before I came to the hospital. I really think you have turned  around the game with the capture of  Seleucia. It saves Jerusalem, as it will give back its lost income. Numidiacannot maych Egypt’s purchases. And my splitting resources between West andnEast was a disastrous move. I could have taken Alex, if I had taken 20 Macedonian units from Geeece, instead of a paltry 8. Was in a  rush, as usual.
My aggressive play lost me Seleucia too; that could have been avoided.
I do hope you have a good Sunday.

[Witt]

Capturing Sparta not necessary. Was enough to hold down your forces, while I took down Egypt

[Colt45554]

True, sending more men to North Africa would have been a good play plus i totally didnt see it coming. Cheers

For anyone reading along, Witt can’t continue this game soon. Sad, because it was a close match!
