[Karl7]

Ouch, I rolled terribly in Egypt…. not that it would have mattered I guess.

resign.

Interesting game.  I am now starting to think this game is broken with the bomber strat. We’ll have to see if anyone can figure out a solution.  Here I tried to break up the game by retreating from Russia.

Didn’t seem to work.

GG :-P

39 fighters and I got 23… less than 50%
that sucks.
