Oh I am wondering if I am doomed in this game already.
Certainly anything can happen with the dice, but the odds are looking a bit long.

I surrender. Great game!
@Ghostglider Thank you. It was a great game! Other than each having late blunders with our European navies, I thought it was a very clean game. Multiple times it felt like one side was losing, only to have that person come back and swing the game in their favor again. It was exhausting, trying to solve the puzzle, but satisfying to pull out the win. I think you are the best player I’ve played this year! Good luck, and Happy New Year!
