that round went along way towards evening out the dice. I was very lucky there.

@gamerman01 I believe JDow realizes that and was just making a little joke

@gamerman01 All good. And glad I’m making this more of a challenge than our first game.

@gamerman01 all good. Looking forward to the turn of course, but not in a rush. I probably will only have time to do Italy and maybe Germany before next week in any case.
