Hi Grendal,  I think the Allies have won this game. What do you think?  Where do you see the Axis on this game?  Would you like to start a third game? Any questions we can discuss re: strategy/game/rules?  you PLAYED MUCH BETTER on this game btw.  If you keep improving at this rate, I’m in trouble in a few games. - Shrimp

Okay - so we will play 2 games. Start up your NWO smalls, I am in for a lesson in gaming I think.  I need the hubris no doubt. I will be certain to use the current version of the game.  You are getting a lot better.

you sound pretty good.  How much bid will you give me as Allies?  I’m down for the game, but want to level the playing field.
