Well, needless to say I am very very miffed about several things this last turn.

But I must admit: You executed an excellent turn with all 7 of your countries, you managed this turn to disarm what I sincerely thought was an insurmountable push with the Japanese and a nearly impenetrable defence with the Germans. I was sure I had you cornered. You pulled off an flawless counter-attack. A heartfelt kudos for that.

With that said I will also say that each time before Turn 9 when I lost ground I believed it was a matter of bad luck or carelessness on my part. However, now you have proven me wrong and proven yourself to be the better strategist. That is, if you do go on to win this, and you have taken great strides toward that this round, it will be well fought and well deserved.

Nothing left to say but on with the fight!

Could be. I’m not quite sure how I’m going to dig myself out of this mess on both maps now…

Losing 4 bombers to nothing is a pretty big deal…
