Don’t really see the path forward from here. Some bad dice but I think the losing move was letting you grab Gibraltar I1. Could have been prevented but I’m a bit rusty.
Will think if I have forgotten anything a bit before posting.
on the other hand, i guess a trade of a bomber for 3 useless german transports isn’t all that bad.

Not useless, or I wouldn’t have hit them. I know I had second thoughts about it, but it’s the right thing to do. I’m glad it wasn’t too costly for you since it was an oversight
yeah, not worried about it. play on.
they served their purpose. makes it easier not to have to worry about defending them now… lol
Worth the valuable reminder of that attack route, for the future
I know I learned that one from another player very early on, when the map first came out
i knew about it. has happened twice now - both to my advantage. :evil:
eesh - don’t tell me you did usa and china without knowing what the uk was going to do… :roll:
