@farmboy I redid the ncms, and reposted. It rolled a second set of dice for convoy which I still need to adjust (I lost one more the second time around). I believe I have all the victory cities in Europe but you can retake London. I think I am in a position though to hold it once I take it again.

@simon33 I could have set myself for odds on London in the high 90s (if you maxed the defense)a couple of turns earlier. But I was fairly sure I could get better odds and so decided to wait. I misjudged that I think but then I had the opening here. And you are right. If I wasn’t able to take London, you were well set up to come back. I wasn’t expecting you to leave London open here, and thought my best chance at a win was to just get the economic upper hand and grind out a win. Good game! That was some creative allied play and you really stalled the Germans after Moscow.

I’ll be up for a rematch but maybe not quite yet. I’m about to start another with Andrew and I offered a game to Adam once I finished the two I was playing. So if he is still available it will have to wait until after. I’m trying to stick to a limit of two games.
