Flip v Varn G02.AAM

UK’s turn!

That first German turn really disgusts me (in particular the results of Egypt). What a disaster! To lose Egypt on G1 after bringing the Mediterranean fleet to SZ 15… Now that that fleet is sunk there is zero chance of German reinforcements to Africa in a KGF game, and my round 2 income is down to 33!

Makes me sick. I’m not sure what else I could have done in Egypt. I brought 4 ground units and a bomber. The dice gods were cruel I guess. Could have brought that fighter instead of using it against the destroyer in SZ 15… could have brought that Tank instead of the Artillery.
