L25 OOB Peirce (+34) v Gamerman01

That’s nice to know, thanks,

Yes it’s a good policy to not be strict on edits or it’s only fair that they will be strict with you.

I am pretty excited to play a new (and friendly) player. I’m also finding that I’m doing different things than in the past, so I’m either learning and growing, or I’ve forgotten the lessons I learned years ago and am regressing. A “Balanced Mod” detour for about 7 years has a lot to do with it. Nice to be back to OOB, and a 34 bid isn’t that much higher than what we used to play years ago, here.

Have a thrilling FRANZAC turn!

Not seeing it, please make sure

It’s there now! Thanks for reposting
Maybe that power move on the Mediterranean has me disoriented

Wow! That shocked me. I thought the Russians were taking Iraq. Was a really nice non-take by the British

Wait, you play other versions.

Did you forget that Russia gets +3 per turn for Iraq in OOB? You can change it if you want. I’m sitting down to do G3 so will proceed because it doesn’t matter to me.

You stunned me again by bravely sailing over treacherous waters to jump start that European theater. With the US fleet out trying to stuff Japan’s shipbuilding capability I figured the potential for that sub had diminished, and you basically made me take the 50/50!

Coin flip! Peirce!

Nice to only lose one from 125

AA to Korea also, right?
