The hunt for Red October begins.

It took me 15 rounds but I finally got the red october!

i don’t think i’ve ever seen such a patchwork of colors in Europe.  its……  sniff sniff…  beautiful.  :-)

get those anzac bombers and some anzac ground units in europe, i want to see some teal territories as well!!  This match is not complete until every nation is represented with territory in europe!

how long will the new french survive?  long enough to conquer berlin?  this is the most fun game i’ve ever lost.  :-D

the germans are hoping to make a withdrawal from the bank of Paris soon.  in the amount of about 17 ipc?

thanks,

bold

the french have been helpful in financing the war effort already so i appreciate their willingness to go above and beyond in making another healthy contribution!

cheers

:-)

if you could just continue to liberate france every turn and allow the germans to keep making withdrawals it would be greatly appreciated.

thank you in advance!

cheers
