I concede this one.  Rematch with teams reversed?

[Eqqman]

Ok, thanks for the game!  Just out of my own curiosity, is this just basically because you didn’t get France G1 or did I manage to do something right someplace else?

I’m happy to start a new game with the same sides and bid, it will give you a chance to rework your opener to see what else could have happened.

[Whackamatt]

well, not only did I not take France, but I lot most of the German air force in said epic failure.  Not taking France…meh okay.  Losing my airforce too?  no way to recover.  I’ll set it up with the same bid placement and start it up
