yeah, i really think I should have backed off after round 1 but destroying those transports and stranding everything in marianas was just too tempting.

please use second map

yep, take your time. This pace has been a bit fast, though I was ready to give up. Frustrated with how things went in europe. I was way too defensive. Trying to balance things out and I think i went too conservative. I really thought I would break into the money but I guess the losses round one that caused delays for the mech added up just enough to let russia get settled.

also, amazing that you and adam have played 9 rounds in 3 days. You guys think so fast.

yeah if you built a naval base there was nothing I would ever be able to do.
