    not sure about bad G1, managed to lose France two times already, always with odds about 90%. Happens 1 in 10 times, but I am sure I did not play 20 games ;)
    But yes, undoubtedly this is frustrating and very unlikely.

  • 17

    With the troops I brought, the odds of failing to take Paris were under 1%.

    Sorry for the delay, I’m trying to decide the best buy for Germany under the circumstances.

  • 17 16 15 12

    yes, I know, your France attack was surely better supported than my usual ones. Still, I know the pain all too well.

    No problem, thought you think about Germany. If you could just give me guidance, if it takes longer I will go to bed. Within 15 mins or so I am still awake and do R.
