That should have been spend 67. Collect 45 + 5 NO = 50.
Er, that naval base is pointless. I had some plan at some time, but it doesn’t make sense now. If you don’t mind, I’ll get an extra sub and destroyer instead.
Loss order off Midway–one hit on all BBs and CAs, then subs, destroyers, carriers again, cruisers, tacs, BBs, then finally fighters.
And…I forgot to move my forces in Russia. I really shouldn’t try playing this late.
And of course I can’t sleep thinking leaving everything sitting out there is really dumb anyway. I’ll make you come get me I guess.
