Since I have the Luxury of choice on how to defend Italy I’ll need a bit of time to think about it. I don’t think I’ll be finished until late today. It might even take until tomorrow.

[JamesAleman]

No problem, take your time, this game is still very interesting.

So let’S see how aggressive you are.

Round 2:

I’m assuming you loose at least 2Antiairs first in Wfr befor you loose any Inf. If the battle reaches that point I will try to make an educated guess if you loose the last AAGun before the remaining Inf but strongly suspect that you will do since they neve hit anything anyway  :-D.

Ok since you don’t have a chance to do anything with it if you keep it I’m assuming you don’t keep the AAGun but rather the last Inf.

Germany’s turn, still thinking?

[Auswanderersland]

With all the sickness going around, he may have been nuked come to think of it.  And this is a pretty critical move…well hell, they are all critical at this point.  Best game I have ever seen at round 17.  What am I saying?  I have never seen a game at Round 17 without a concise/clear advantage, although he has been outproducing the allies for so long…even if you get an advantage on him briefly in the med…I don’t think you can capitalize on it for long.  He just has so much.  Regardless, you are doing a great job JJ.  I can’t believe you are still hanging on, even challenging him at this point.

No Convoy this Round since your Australians seem to like Iraq so much. Perhaps it’s the weather^^.

OOL is kind of comlicated but I’ll try to look if you’re doing an attack when USA+UK’s turn comes around again.
And sorry for being so lazy right now but I don’t feel a need to rush this game.
