Yeah I’m a solicitor (broadly equivalent to an attorney over there). I work in negligence litigation so the work is either relatively laid back or full on depending on the court timetable. What do you do? :-)
I’d be up for trying out as the Axis. I can set the game up tomorrow after work - what do you want to spend your bid on?
I agree - I don’t see the Allies winning this one - UK messed up early and USA has been pretty ineffectual all game!
I’ve done my turn in case you want to continue but I’m happy to concede this one :-D
