that is an absurd battle. deranged. i appreciate your good humour. and sorry about the map. did it all in a hurry on way to work this morning.

given your luck, perhaps i should try to take caucasus with my single italian tank…

perhaps this is a joke too far. i am grateful you agreed to play

right - i am  a major dumbass p- but a relieved one
i’ve been playing on a board and didn’t notice that you had pulled your chinamen back to chinghai. only spotted it when i came to update my map

i’ll redo the whole turn for simplicity’s sake
