My apologies, I messed things up because I was just clicking mindlessly through the GUI and not paying enough attention to what was happening. I allowed a bombard on Belgium, and since the BB scored a hit, the game engine cancelled the rolls for the rest of the UK troops, so I have no way to know if my other forces there would have all missed and you could have survived if everything happened properly. I had to load an autosave to get my units to roll and I took off the hit scored by your defender in the prior rolling for that battle.
Sadly (for me, YMMV) we’re now in the part of the game that I find least enjoyable (for many A&A games in general, not this particular session with you).

Once the mid-game hits, most of the action at the periphery has resolved and our overall end-game strategies are probably locked in. At this stage I get frustrated sitting back watching my opponent make unblockable moves, and just quietly building up until I have a massive preponderance somewhere is the most boring section of the game for me.

Not sure why you converted the SZ6 Mine, since they cannot be captured.

@Eqqman Ottomans attacked Greece and scored 11 hits. How do you want them?
@The_Good_Captain
Interesting, I didn’t know if you would make a play for Greece or not, so I declined to scoop up Albania & Serbia as UK to give the defense there its best shot and moved into Ankara earlier than I wanted to try and discourage a play there (in Greece).
Please remove 9 US Infantry and 2 UK Infantry.
