However I think a similar fate would have befallen the Soviet Union if they were to lose the Caucasus. I'll have to double check when I get home, but I am fairly certain that 80% or ...

Play to the Bitter End…Rant Warning!

<r> When you enter into a PBEM or server GC41-45 with someone or some ones’, how do we all interpret the promise of “we intend to play to the bitter end”? Apparently it means we expect our opponents to play to the bitter end as long we are thrashing them. However, if the hobnailed boot gets thrust ...

RE: OIL

<t> Several months ago, I had play tested the impact the loss of the Caucasus oil field had on Soviet production and movement for aircraft and mechanized units.
