Assumed no scramble to protect the dd, based on overall position and your previous answers.

Of all the times to bleed my air, this was the least advantageous to you.
We can reroll in forum otherwise

@mikawagunichi
Thank you sir.
By my math, Egypt was secure even with the amphib. Maybe I missed something.

As much as I did hit you with a left upper when you were aiming for a right full punch, I think you are the better player, by a decent margin. I truly think the way you applied your new tactic of hitting Italian fleet with Russian air tipped the balance to me. Opened up the eastern front. Not that the idea doesn’t have merit, but may need refinement.

It was the 3 US TT placed in sz 104 with nothing to load on turn 8 that caught my attention in a big way. That’s what made me 90% sure you were heading to Egypt the southern route.

Yeah… I wrote that before opening the file - didn’t picture it right in my head. I’m one of those visual people.

would definitely take you up on the best of 3.

And I had accepted the risk of losing them. So long as Egypt held when London fell, i knew i would be OK.
