@Jacob16 thanks for the game!

@Stucifer I think in practice I am not enjoying the game enough to want to continue – I appreciate you introducing me to the map, and it certainly has its interesting points, but it also drags on for considerably longer than I would prefer. Here it is turn 12, and I’m struggling to take Gibraltar and you’re struggling to take Egypt, which are usually places that I think of as locations for early-game gambits. It might take us another 4 turns to resolve those questions, and then if they come out 1 for each of us, then the game will just keep right on going. My favorite game is Anniversary, where the game is usually not just decided but actually over by turn 10 at the latest.

So, for league purposes, I resign, and declare you the winner.

I did not think about it, but its fair to assume 4 anzac on 2 us carriers
