Done. @FMErwinRommel:

Forgot to NCM inf NW Persia > Persia.  Wittmann, please edit this for me on your turn.  Thanks

Have a good weekend all. The restaurant is full tonight amd I have three games of rugby to watch and  Alice’s birthday on Tuesday. I will be busy, busy!

We have a good young team. Am very happy. Can only realistically hope to beat Scotland. Hope, today, we can keep down the score though. Our defence was poor  against England. Yoo many easy  line breaks.

was thinking it would post china in brit combat post, although shouldnt affect italy decision to scramble 95? UK purchase is minor, airbase(Europe), 2 inf(Pacific).

I have A&A 1914 but no one to play with. It seems incredibly unbalanced to me in favor of Allies.

Re US fig edit: before combat rolls for China. We had to talk it through. Such a tenuous situation in Pacific.

It is very unbalanced. The fact that the UK can place 191 units in India , doesn’t help. What was wrong with setting a limit of 4?
Africa is silly too. Is a total side show, with the CPs unable to reibforce in any way.
Have you seen the Official Tournament rules? They address things somewhat.
Will try and see if I can post a link fir you.

No scramble, thank you.

Will be at hotel without laptop tonight. Will post tomorrow night or wednesday.
