Life has been in a bit of an upheaval the past few days.
I’m looking forward to sitting down and playing the next move, but not sure when, right now
I hope you don’t mind, thanks
Arrived today in Austria, where my internet connection is definitely better. Still busy, but at least I should be able to play a little.

To keep this slow game moving along, I’ll roll the first round in Ukraine. The two battles are pretty much unrelated and I’m sure you’ll just choose infantry and artillery first……

Crap.
Well, I’m pretty sure you’d lose a destroyer in 5 and 2 men in Ukraine, but I’ll wait for casualty choices.
Hopefully it won’t take days. :-)
no need a long time to give ool, not like thinking a full turn :)
Will do what you supposed indeed
Now let’s see how much I have to pay for this aggressive maneuver……

You had a 4.5% chance of wiping me out in 2 rounds of combat. That is just brutal. :-) Maybe you will meet with disaster trying to sink my battleship again.
