We pause to say a prayer for those brave soldiers of the Crown who are about to meet their (digital) maker. May they roll many ones and twos on their way to oblivion.

Germany’s Turn!

[MrMalachiCrunch]

It’s going to be 1 more round before Germany is ready, I fear I have not been aggressive enough and have let the US become too powerful in the Pacific.  It’s this end game go for the throat phase of the game I feel I am weak in.

I didn’t see the Non-Combat movement, the Mobilization, or the map. Take your time with the turn. You don’t have to rush. I know how it is when things get busy!

[MrMalachiCrunch]

Oh geez, was all written up in notepad, forgot to copy it over and paste.  I do all the writing up before I more the pieces on the map, or at least reload an load map and do the moves according to what is written to ensure it matches.
