@Marshmallow:

Doesn’t look good. Europe is like slogging uphill through mud.

Italy up!

you definately have things to deal with, but you fight well!

@Marshmallow:

Well, I don’t see any way the Allies can win this. Axis productivity is far too high. I can keep you out of the Middle East for about six turns, but that’s about it.

OK. Are we calling it a game? I am away now for 2-3 weks, expect july 30 for post if you want to continue

For me this is a great experience. I think you played REALLY well.

you made hell for germany, but maybe Japan was given too much freedom. I also think I did not play japan optimal. For the last few rounds I have been around 90 IPC but have not accomplished much

Yeah, let’s play it out. I putting the game on hold now as I am away
