To be honest, I don’t recall every succesfully pulling it off. So you have that on me. I got careless and should have noticed your purchase of bombers and then a transport makes it an option. I nearly stacked everything possible in UK and hoped to make it expensive, but instead chose to spread out, make it awkward, and position forces in the hope of counter attacking.

It does give Germany a big boost in PUs, and hurts the UK, but it gives Russia more time to build up.

@FlyingBadger
I really just want you to spend $18 on 6 infantry and place them in london, helps balance the cost of the bombers.

Yes, I’m an England fan. Not as big on football as I used to be, but I still watch the national team.

They did get lucky and left it very late (squeaky bum time), but that is footy, things can change very quickly. Hopefully they can get there act together for the next round.
