Ugh, yeah, stupid Finland… didn’t figure in the Russian planes for some reason.
It happens. Keep your chin up!
We all need at least one staff officer!
Sorry, I almost asked, but I figured you were probably just trying to lure my Russian infantry too far west or something – did you want to roll it back to G2 and redo your noncombat?
@Argothair I’m not picky. I’ll suffer the consequences of my carlessness this time, lol
@Argothair I mean… the whole point of mechanized Russia is for Russia to be able to capitalize on that exact sort of mistake more easily.

Its fun is the best part!
Mechanized Russia makes you feel less helpless. No more sitting back on your heels, awaiting your doom.
