Not sure of the path to victory from here. Got near to Moscow but you held it, thought I’d eventually get Calcutta but you can (probably) take it back. Urgh.
@simon33 Yeah I can re-take Calcutta if you go full force. Not sure whether I can defend Moscow at the same time.
@simon33 We’ll still try and keep the pace in this game right?

Did you miss my 7 figs in NI?
Actually I did see them but what I didn’t see was the extra 3 from London reaching. Was a coin flip without those extra planes. Was prepared to make that gamble - wasn’t sure if you would take it. I wasn’t looking very good this game so I wasn’t too keen on thinning down anywhere else. If you attacked and lost at that, you would have lost a lot of TUV.
Result posted. I haven’t had a good year.
@simon33 Ok, I can understand that rationale.
I think you can learn/improve something from every game played irrespective of a win or lose so it’s not played in vain.
