@Elrood I’ll probably do it later today… waiting on team suggestions

@Witt ok with me… I’ll do the edit now

@barnee the guy on the left looks like he’s wearing a beret. The other guy looks like he’s wearing German boots…it is kind of odd.

@Elrood have to get @Karl7 to post so we can get on with it !

@Elrood the part about me focusing on defending and reinforcing was spot on…

PT-194 refueling from the PT Boat Tender USS Wachapreague AGP-8 while enroute from Palau to Leyte Gulf - October 20, 1944

PT-194 was an 80’ Elco launched in February 1943, assigned to MTBRon 12 in the Pacific, she participated in the Guadalcanal Campaign, New Guinea, Leyte Gulf, and the Battle of Surigao Strait.

PT-194 was stripped and burned at Samar in October 1945….

@Elrood we can still go on so you can enjoy your big battle…

@Witt I wouldn’t go so far to say that. The allies may have stabilized E Africa, but things are going to start popping in W Africa next round. It’s possible there may be a major sea battle in the Atlantic and that never happens in our games.

This has been a very challenging game for me, so I like that.

Incredible picture of an International Harvester Tractor photographed on the wreck of USS Hornet CV-8

This tractor would have been used as an aircraft tug

USS Hornet CV-8 was sunk during the Battle of Santa Cruz in the early morning hours of October 27, 1942 with the loss of 140 of her crew

Her wreckage was discovered on January 20, 2019 by RV Petrel

@Elrood We should probably call this one a team Europe win. Those 63 German tanks can take the middle Russian capitol in two rounds and then head south to India. And it’s impossible for the allies to build enough to stop them…anywhere.
Good game guys!
