@Shin:

I hate when my prophecies keep coming true.   :-D

Man, you were supposed to get diced in OUR game and not let other players harvest the fruits MARTI did set up to be picked:D

I once had a 99.9+% chance of taking Moscow with a combined Japanese bomber + German land force attack.  AA gun fire shot down more than half of the dozen Japanese strafers; the remaining ones all missed.  I still had a 98% chance of winning, but the dice goddess was still against me.  Nothing that you can do when you have a perfect plan but failed dice rolls!

Scramble from Italy?

I doubted it, but I could see a desperation attack of the Italian scramblers followed up with German bombers… just wanted to make sure.
