deployment is to kiangsu of course, not kiangsi … where the ic is located. all those k’s in china get confusing…

Very nice one against US carriers. I rarely get surprised, but this one sure caught me ungarded.

Oups… almost forgot : - Waiting Scrambling orders -

scramble the planes… and rub the rabbit’s foot. i saw that possibility with the americans landing in denmark, then forgot all about it. meant to put an italian boat in sz110 to stop that nonsense. oh, well… this game has so many nuances and i am forgetting things right and left against you and jen, and paying a high price.
fire away…

btw… check the u.s. buy on your last american move… 3 ac’s = $48, not $42. they are $16 each, aren’t they?
