Me1945: You naughty man!

I say: Work is for drinking and flirting. The sofa is for playing A&A(while the wife is working and the daughter is at school).
Girlfriends (thank God) are a thing of the past.

@ross buon giorno.
Dove sei in Italia? I am in England ; too far , capisco. Son nato a Firenze.
Good luck finding players .
Leo.

Thank you for your reply Tall Paul.
And thank you for the Mansfield response; I admit to being an Englishman with a Civil War obsession. I ask any Southerner I meet from where does he come. Excuse me.

@Private-Panic Whicj capitals fell? Rome amd Russia’s ? Wow!

Whack, would you put my Bosnian INf in Croatia, please?

@Conni_Hu good day and welcome to the forum.
I loved this game and played it a lot when it came out.

As Germany, you really have to go for Russia, if you want to win. Spending too much on navy, will make it near impossible to conquer Moscow. You need to have a one track mind: Moscow! Tanks are the most useful unit, but you will still need cheaper Inf and Art.

As the Allies, capturing France is imperative. You need Germany to split its income between two fronts and France is worth a lot of income.
Britain will suffer at first and just needs to hang on and be patient. America is on the way.

I hope your assignment works and your enjoyment of the game continues.

@the-captain good day. Thank you for thinking of me . I am not sure I could afford the time though. I work a lot and have had detached retinas, which mean my vision is poor. (Playing face to face is less enjoyable now.)
There are other U.K. players who might be interested, however.
You should post the announcement, when you decide to come or when you book to come .

He is on an anger management course run by monks. It is a prerequisite to being a Moderator on a belligerent forum like this visited by many unstable individuals.
He’ll be back! (like Terminator).

@Private-Panic Hm! You tell yourself that, Adolf.

I love this game.
Played recently, after years of not playing. Was Germany( as usual) and my Russian opponent came up with a game winning trap too.
I ended up losing.

@barnee thanks
@Spirally i am in Hereford , but I don’t have time to travel (and have problems Witt my vision, so don’t like travelling without my eagle eyed wife .
Once every 3 months , a game is played in Derbyshire , but that is 100 miles from me , so would be 150 for you, I imagine .

Thank you Malachi.
Never realised it came from there. Did love it as a child, but like most things related to my life, have forgotten about it! Can only seem to remember historical facts and figures.
I love football and have seen many games, but can never recollect facts about sport.
Weird. It is like I have a selective memory.(Maybe like a PC, I have filled up all available space!)

@barnee I am scared Of heights and the local Home Guard’s defences.

@Private-Panic Uou are not forgotten. We are making plans, as you sleep, to invade England amd make her the 51st State.

Anniversary

@Witt the days in Derbyshire are fun and you ought be able to br put up by someone in thr village . It is worth asking.
I will inform Adam of this thread .

Happy Birthday for  last week and welcome back to your home.
Glad you have been busy.

@barnee amd have the 6 Pounder come loose and crash into me, when the pilot hits some big cow pats, not likely!

@Private-Panic ?
