I will spend a supply and fight in this battle.
You have spent one supply from Mersa Brega to move into Benghazi, right? So there should be two supply there at this point?

Remember, unlike other versions of the game, you don’t need 8 Victory Cities at the end of the round, you need to hold 8 Victory Cities for an entire turn. So if Italy gets the 8th, you have to hold all 8 until Italy’s next turn.
I like this change, it means you can’t snipe with 1 guy.

I like to announce, just as a formality, when 8 Euro or 6 Pac cities are reached; nothing more ridiculous than winning/losing a game because someone didn’t realize they needed to actually take a city back.
Of course, after all my questions, I can hardly blame you for thinking I was declaring victory :-P
