@johnnycat Interesting strategy. Planes will not scramble

@beelee Wow! You bamboozled me ….. again:(. Well you were a man about it last game so I will play on! Good chance that your perfect record against me except when I Sea Lion you will stay intact. Probably be tomorrow before I post next turn as I need to think about how to counter this unfortunate situation plus there’s a Pizza sighting as he requested to start another HRE game via board today so need to spend some time with that
