The good news is that transports cost only 7, so two for 14 rather than 16. The bad news is that you still bought units for 72 IPC, not 65 (you forgot to pay one DD).

[Pakitho]

You know how it is, late in the evening…

Bet you didn’t see the naval base coming…  :evil:

A shame I have to sacrifice 2 ccs, but I’m not taking any chances on an Italian sub/bom can opener in Sz104. Nothing’s keeping me out of Europe!  :-)

Your sub can’t go back into the Med, you didn’t control Gib in the beginning of the turn…

[tinydictator]

Gibraltar doesn’t block subs, only surface warships (otherwise your naval base in WeI would make even less sense btw…)
