May I just say, MrRoboto, that it’s astounding to me how fast you can crank out turns!  I get the die roll emails, and then it’s something like 5 minutes later you’ve posted USA, China, and UK.  I know you’ve been around and you play a LOT, but wow!

I find it difficult to get a turn done in less than 20 minutes, even if it’s all fairly routine.  I’m sure as I play more, I’ll see that time shrink.

I know!  I was expecting a win in both of those, but not a waffle stomp!

That’s a neat trick, by the way - sending in a ship to my fleet’s SZ when not at war, and then doing an unprovoked declaration with ANZAC.  Never seen that one.
