Question - when I loaded up the game - it indicated the Axis had achieved victory? They have 8 European victory cities for a whole turn? But - what are the official conditions for the league? Going to look that up…just haven’t seen this before…

[Whackamatt]

i think it’s legit.  Germany got the 8/11 when they took Russia.  I then had a whole round, one turn for everybody, to take back a VC.  The odds weren’t good to take back france, but I had honestly spaced it and forgot.

Good game, sir!

[miamiumike]

Well - would you want to go back and make that attack on France? If not, that is OK - up to you…

Thank you for the offer.  I reloaded, tried, and failed.  So good game!  You do indeed win.  lol.

[miamiumike]

Well - I just didn’t want it to end on that sort of note. To be honest, I didn’t even realize it myself until the game brought it to my attention.

Good game as well - let me know if (and when) you are up for a rematch - you were my last active game ATM.

Take care!
