Very good game indeed! I am good with the rematch on sides and bid. Infantry in Egypt, armor in Belorussia and an infantry in Karelia. The move you made in the beginning of attacking Karelia caught me by surprise.

@The:

Good game, good game. I surrender.

You really had me when you feinted to southern Africa but booted it back up to France with the US. That probably set me back as Japan for a couple rounds. Although since you bottled up Germany, it got more difficult to get you.

I’d like a re-match. This was fun. I was so close.  :-D

Same sides, same bid?

Japan was becoming a monster!
