@anchovy:

That’s just dumb.  So much for the 97+% battle…  :roll: Why do I have the feeling that might be a turning point?  :|
egy holds with 1 rtl (change to mec if you prefer), 2 arm.  1 arm retreats to sud.  1 ftr retreats in NCM.

Yeah, battles like that are really frustrating, not only did you lose but you got creamed.  Really wrecks your plans when stuff like that happens.

I will probably do Germany soon as France wont have any impact on German turn.
