OOL? In case you’re wondering why I haven’t thrown in the towel yet, I’m waiting to see how the clash of AH Vs. Italy plays out + whether the German/French stacks actually end up colliding or not.

[The_Good_Captain]

@domanmacgee all infantry. and no worries - this has been educational for me. you’re tenacious as hell and I realize that avoiding a fight where the CP have a chance (as you mention) is harder than it looks. I see what you’re trying to do via the board. very impressive. I’ve never felt so allergic to a fight.
