Our best hope, if we want to evacuate Normandy-Bordeaux would be putting the the transport in sea zone 110, pray Germany does something weird and hits sea zones 109, 111, 93, 106, and/or 91 and doesn’t invade Normandy-Bordeaux. Then we can evacuate them on France’s first turn, probably the only time they can evacuate it (unless the German player just leaves the territory alone for a while).

This is pretty obvious though and if I were the German player I’d definitely go after sea zone 110 to prevent this. You never know…

I’m not saying it was bad move. The potential payoff was totally worth the low odds of winning.
