I can’t even bear to look.  Posting the result - another great game farmboy!

[farmboy]

Yes, thanks for the game. That was epic!

I got lucky there in a few key moments and I think if you had put a touch more US pressure on Germany right after Sea Lion  you would have had it.

[variance]

Yeah but there just wasn’t enough $$ to go around.  Great game though

Hopefully we can square off again in the 2018 league.
