I made the assumption you would keep a fighter in Scotland - but you are also entitled to a damaged battleship. You can edit on Russian turn.

WOW Mallery - I don’t know what to say.  That was probably the most successful German opener (dice) in League this year.

@Mallery29:

FTR is fine by me….well, nothing like coughing up four goals without scoring any in the first period…sucks to be me!!!
