I forgot that I needed to take a Fighter loss in the last round of combat in SZ 100, I should have taken the Fighter over the Cruiser.  It’s your call on if I can fix that or not.

Ok, thanks.  You can make the fix just by dropping a Cruiser into SZ 110 when you do the Russian turn.

I have a bit of a problem with seeing things that are important, then forgetting them when I actually make my move several days later.

I was curious to see if you would totally stack London or save some builds to fight another day.  I didn’t see anything you could produce that would give me less than 90% odds on London, it seemed an interesting question as to if it should be defended at all.  Have to do something I suppose, it wouldn’t do to just let me walk in.
