Good game Sir!!!

I don´t see a way in which Japan can reach Egypt and at the same time Germany hold Moscow unless extreme dice, but what´s the point of a win like that? You have been very superior in the game so I concede. I prefer enjoying the real challenge instead of spending that time on that…

I´m sorry I was not as tough as other games last year with my Axis, I did some wrong tests, I guess in the end it was not the challenge that you expected, but I think this game would have been yours in any case, very strong on your side, good moves Sir.

My turn now, this is a real challenge for me, the greatest I can imagine on 2nd edition, and may be my last game on it:

Destroyer Gibraltar
Factory Egypt
Inf Yunnan
Fighter Moscow

[Zhukov44]

GG Juan.  Was alot of fun.  Very nice feather in my cap to pick up a win as Allies against a player of your skillset.  I appreciate your fast pace (which I couldn’t reciprocate).  But I should be able to go faster playing as Axis.

Is the bid 33 or 36?  I count 36 for that bid.

[Zhukov44]

Hmm brainfart, your bid is fine, I forgot a minor IC is 12 rather than 15.

As soon as I figure out my open I’ll start the thread!
