Well Lennard; you’ve done it. The jig is up. I thought I could race to Calcutta while stealing Sydney or Honolulu for a round but I don’t think I can. Turns out the secret of Allied play is Fighters, all the fighters! Well done.

Thanks Carl, a good game, I was nervous about the Germans running straight through to Middle Earth like that. And, yeah, fighters can come in handy when you just can’t get enough boots to an island!
