First off, congrats to MichiganMan on a well played game.

And Santosh, I really dont understand those disbands. Essentially just ceding your home centers while trying to take mine? I am pretty confused.

Yeah, I played that very badly, thrown off balance by your first move NMR and never quite recovered. Bad news on the Russian NMR, but I deserved to lose it anyway.

I made a really bad mistake in S02, moving to GOL and Marseilles. Completely sending the wrong impression to Italy and putting myself in a bind.

@TheJok3r Yes, I was just trying to stay alive. I needed England to recover to move on Russia, and I wanted Turkey to be done with Italy and stab Russia so I could recover. That meant tying you down, there was nothing else I could do. If I'd let you off the hook, you'd have collected Belgium and Holland, and that would be the end of me.

He put up a pause, so I assume some emergency came up. And he resigned on the move where he could have possibly secured himself a solo. But a well-played game by MichiganMan. I saw the open and thought I might stand a chance with an Anti-Russian opening, but the serbia play was well timed. I dislike Austria in gunboat--if Italy turns on you you are generally up a creek.

Surviving in WTA might as well be defeat. Seeing how Russia was getting close to a solo, it seems much better had you just gone and held the stalemate line as opposed to taking my centers and letting him walk through you. And had I been able to attack England, I could have prevented Turkey from owning my ass in the South.

Meh....Well played game by Turkey and Russia. I screwed up bad in S02. Screwed over Italy...I'm still a noob in training...Learning every game.

@viruslatin: True, that's possible. Tough, if so.
