So big mess ups for me. I had no idea subs can go through Galbitrar and I forgot to put my british infantry in Normandy last turn.

You know what. I’m just going to let you have this win.
Costly mistakes I’ve made that have led me to losing the game.

[Radiant]

Really close game, I think we both made mistakes and I think we will both get better cause of this game.  If you want a re-match send me a PM.
