[Zhukov44]

I went ahead and assumed no scramble in 54.

You can re-roll 54 here if you want to scramble.

[666]

this game is really starting to hurt my head….TUV and income are such that I feel that I have no chance but you still have to get that extra Pacific VC…your game of attrition will make the income disparity even worse in a turn or so once you break through EGY…

I can’t make the rational decision to start investing in USA navy now…

I think I am going to capitulate, rather than investing a few more hours into this…I think I have gleaned all I can from this game with you…I can tell you your patience, plodding, strategic approach to the axis global domination is quite frustrating.

I find it nearly impossible to defeat a strong player as the allies. I might try to break this game next season playing only the axis…

Thanks for listening…not sure what I am going to do here.
