I have accepted the edit, simply because I want to pass along some of the generosity I have been shown at times.
But this last one could have been game over for you, and I had positioned myself to move if you forgot syria. That was my “silent plan” and hope that you would forget. But I don’t want to take this victory by doing that, so I have allowed it, but please be careful with such important moves ;)

You’re welcome.
AND YES; you owe me one ;) hehe :mrgreen:

[MrRoboto]

I was aware of the Syria problem after I saw your Japanese planes in India after your Japanese move. I just forgot about it for a second when doing my French move.

However, I almost immediately remembered it after I that “post turn” button. I thank you for allowing the edit, since it’s not granted by the rules of course and yes, it would have maybe meant game over.

I don’t think it’s that big of a deal, however. I allow my opponents small forgotten fights all the time, as long as nothing else has been done afterwards.

Usually I am extremely flexible, with NCM and with Walk-ins… with combat - not as flexible. But I like to be on the more generous side. It would have been game over, as you would have had to attack, and it would have been a very small percentage battle for you.

Also, I don’t want to win that way - not after such a good game against a worthy opponent. ;)

[arathorn]

I have traveled internationally from USA to Europe the last day, so I will post tomorrow.
