Sorry about the non com edits :roll:
Actually - would you mid moving the Italian tank and 2 AAs to Ukraine instead of Bryansk. Thanks.
Italy should start thinking more about itself in the Med instead of building and sending more scarce resources into Russia. You are El Duce, and should be making the Med Mare Romana again.
Incorrect FM. I am Hitler’s lapdog and do as I am told!
It would be the first time!
Will the Pacific be Mare Nippon any time soon my dear Witt?! :-P
When the USN realises the war is being lost on the other side of the map, if you hurried up, it might.
So it is up to me to win the war for you Leo? Try to make some sort of contribution old boy! :roll:
Like moving your fleet to a better position and costing poor Winston 6 in Convoy? I will do my best. Perhaps , I should gift Russia some Lend Lease, as you like to do.
I like to be generous and magnanimous in victory!
All we have to do now is win or I will have been generous in defeat - which is less defensible!

I lose another crucial battle. This time worth a whopping 10 PUs :x
Very unfortunate, and you may lose your tt. The shape and size of the sz down there make it impossible to use ftrs or tac bomb against island targets without cv. Need a bomber. At least you built a new tt and inf. I always wondered whether an early J invasion of an N.O. island would be worth it.
Unlucky. The odds were with me though .
I see my Italian units are still in Bryansk. I will move them to Ukraine as I requested above.

Well played Adam, I am trying to decide how best to vacate and re-position.
Don’t r vacate . It could fail and we still need Cairo and we don’t have Iraky’s help . We have not won by a long way.
