Hey…

I am not sure if I choose the right unit for you during the India battle - if you prefer to keep the anti-aircraft gun please feel free to edit and add that back.  (I took out the AA gun even though it is more expensive as I thought that gives an extra Infantry to defend during the battle).

Thanks,

[Witt]

I will swap it as you only had one unit left after the first round, so were  never going to take India. I also hit twice, so you would have always died.

[innohub]

Sure - please go ahead :lol:

Do you think I am after France?

I have never played that you can enter the Black Sea whilst Turkey is neutral. Is that not an optional rule?
If you play it with your friends, then we can use it. I have never come across anyone that did. 
No problem, just did not know we were playing the rule.

I cannot believe how desperate my situation looks. Can it really be from losing that one battle?
I thought I would be patient, so as to have a safe UK/US European base. Your throwing TT after TT at me seemed wrong and wasteful, so I decided to try something different.
Perhaps going all out to save India is the only strategy.

I am also not sure what’s the right strategy on Allies side too.  Right now it seems Germany has some threat from the sea troops, but Japan is safe so far.  It does seem losing the initial British troops give Japan a good advantage.  Without full power from US it seems hard to deal with Japanese sea troops in 3 turns.  I played one game with a friend of mine (in same forum too) and he basically forces me to build all the troops in London.  That seems to mean my India will fall as I sink all the money in homeland now….will see how the matches go and whether I should hold India or try something else.

I am not sure if you are targeting France, but your sea troops become a threat to me  :-D.  I still remembered how dangerous it is by leaving the sea force alone last match so I am more cautious on this.
