Small correction with Italy. Since she owns N-Persia as well, another NO is fulfilled and total is now 34. You agree?

Not sure at all what you will do, everything is possible. I tried to make the odds favorable for me everywhere.

OOL Burma: AA, Inf, Art, Mech, Tank
OOL SZ 38: First hit damages AC, next casualty depends on amount of your hits
OOL NW-Persia depends on amount of your hits. Inf, Mech, Art first.
Attack on Korea: Possible kamikaze

[lexgreat]

I thought you would buy those, its the smartest buy in this situation :)

As for keeping, I do not knowand I doubt there is anything official. Personal opinion is: Keep them as if they were UK Europe.

[lexgreat]

There is something official (I doubt they had our tech method in mind, but its logical to apply):

Research & Development
Either economy can pay all or part of the cost of conducting Research and Development. The results apply to the power as a whole.

If you hit z92, I’ll have to give you an OOL; will depend on your # of hits.
France also may come into play for G8, up to you if you want to go ahead.
I see your response on UK Tech - agree I think I can keep them. And I thought of that buy 1 second before hitting “post”!  :-D
Map attached.

[lexgreat]

I will do I immediately, wanna do F before that (in which case I follow with G8), or between? Anyways, I7 coming up.

[Trajan01]

I gotta step out for an hour. F actually has a bunch of choices here, need to see what I does, but I should be able to post in time for you to do G8 before your night.

[lexgreat]

What I certainly did not expect was an empty India.
