Did you? Yeah, that was pretty easy then. I royally screwed up sending F IRI to Nao instead of Mao and it made all of the difference in the world. My eyes must have been crossing at that time. And then that screw up over Mos. I saw the error with about 8 seconds left and couldn't make the change. 5 minute phases are great until you get 15 or 16 units. Then it is a very tight window with which to operate in.

Yep, good game. Long one and exciting, much fun. Fair end of game.

Why don't you post the link.

I didn't post the link so that I wouldn't have to face the ridicule of my last few years' moves. Or I just forgot. Either way.

Especially don't look at Autumn of 1911. It is ugly.

At the beginning, I was pissed of, because I get once again Italy. The pre-game end as a quick cancel, with Germany for me. Get Italia too much last time, even though this nation is very popular by my side, a certain isolation of Mediterranean influence and well for a Gunboat-Challenge. But somehow you will also varied, so I wasn't thrilled with Italia. Then I stood for years in a little stalemate against Russia, couldn't really occupie the important fifth SC in Triest for more military pressure. For a long time a boring situation. When the other nations were stronger, especially Germany, Russia could forced to the defensive, so I got more space for initiatives against him and Ö. So I could managed a small lucky coup that brought me the much needed reinforcements to turn a poor midgame in a comfortably endgame. Nevertheless, it was a tricky situation to stop the strong Germany with 16 SCs. I knew, I had to win a smart player in Russia as an ally against his run for a solo victory, or I'll get a worst survived achieved and no points.

Dependent for a draw...
