[WarInEur] RE: limitations of Gaming

[Don Lazov]

As an aside, in Steve in my game with Attrition. It's late 40 (10th 
cycle) I overran France in 5 turns and Yugo in 3. However, with 
attrition the lateness of the season Greece, Norway, England and Spain 
seem out of the question. In North Africa Steve knocked out Tobruck and 
crunched some Italian Infantry. I managed to sail in a couple of 2-4's 
and desperation caused me to sail in 3x 2-8 Pz KG and 1x 2-8 PzG KG and 
now I just got 2x 10-8 in and am barely holding Bardia. I had a 7-10 in 
but Steve crunched him. Rough going in NA with no bad weather and 
supplies looking slim attrition is a bitch, but a sweet bitch she is.

If this was a normal SPI WIE game, then the usual suspects of the 
Norwegian, Greece ans Spanish gambits would have applied. With attrition 
not so.

Steve it's your move...
