Instead of damaging the battleship, I am taking a submarine loss.  I am only pointing it out because generally people will damage the warship and you might not notice that a submarine was removed.

Can you double check your map, this one doesn’t show anything after US Combat moves.

[Jennifer]

@Emperor:

You are correct.  It’s because of the _USA at the end, it made it the bottom map.  Sorry.

Improved Mech.  Hmm…they shall die to mysterious incantations of fire and light as they drive into my fields!  We shall kill them in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening!  We are Russians and we will NEVER SURRENDER!

Sorry…where was I, oh yes, your benevolent friend will be indisposed for much of tomorrow.  Sorry for any delay.  And is it just me, or is it a truism that by the very fact a person has been elected to political power, they are proven to be unworthy of having political power?
