Tanks…up for another one, swap sides?

[Whackamatt]

Well, I don’t consider myself a good enough play to no-bid as the Allies.  To be fair, though, the lowest I’d go is Allies +7.  Transport off of South Africa if you’re interested.

[suprise attack]

Sounds good to me been busy so my posts are slow. I’m hoping that in 14 I can have more time to game here and then its not 1 or 2 times a week, and then try to figure out what I’m doing
Look for it soon
