Moscow should fall easily on G6 unless there is some incredibly bad dice rolling. The Brits are too far away to get there in time, and the Russians have lost too many units in their attempt to slow down Barbarossa. We definitely can play for as long as you wish.
Happy New Year. I’ve been away for a few days

If you had wanted to scramble your 2 Russian fighters against the 3 German bombers, let me know and I can roll that combat here on the forum. Alternatively, you can roll it and make the changes.

Actually, I don’t think I have a choice. I have to max my production this turn and hope I do a number on your bombers. So yes, I’ll scramble and let you roll.

I resisted the “urge” to plunder Western Germany. I felt it was more important to take (and possibly keep) Norway, depending on what you do with your bombers. But I had to take Denmark to close the sea lane and lock in your North Atlantic fleet (while threatening yours.) Russia toast, but I am having fun.
