Okay - ignore that R post which was pointless anyway.

If I had left those 2 UK DDs in sz 110 the odds would have been more even, but took the risk to get the NO. Knew you had an 87% chance, but tried to give you other things for G’s planes in Italy to do. Should have known you would not be distracted.

Think there’s probably no way back for the allies now….  :cry:

Kamikaze sz 20?

Just a go or two behind the curve. This turn UK Pacific will regain enough income for the US to turn to the Atlantic!

But my real mistake was to think Moscow was okay. Was checking every go and then you lost a load of planes and I was lazy or a couple of turns. Damn you wittmann!

Did you do your G edit?
