Why the Jags? Is it because they played in London? They're easily the worst football team in several years.

I am indeed - but once net play is fixed I hope to play others - and they are not going to be forgiving of such schoolboy errors. I am therefore learning the hard way. Such a stupid thing to do makes me look stupid - and really cheeses me off, but I suspect I won't now do it again.

Re the Jags. I know nothing of the sport but I chose the Jags because of the ROAR video - very nice. The owner has recently bought Fulham Football Club too.

The fact that they are the worst team is irrelevant. I did not know that when choosing them, but once you have chosen a team, you nail your colours to the mast and you can't change. I have no respect for people in this country that change their football (soccer) teams - its just plain wrong on every level.

So now, for better or worse, I support the Jacksonville Jaguars

The hour destined by fate is sounding for us. This is the hour of irrevocable decisions. A declaration of war has been handed to the ambassadors of Great Britain and France.

Italian people, rush to arms and show your tenacity, your courage, your valour!

The plan is to try and finish off Billotte and then head for Paris, while in northern China, the Japanese have backed up in order to rid themselves of the pesky partisan unit, before resuming their advance.

The Germans cross the now partially undefended Maginot Line and target the hex east of Paris. Barring disruption, this should give them a crack at Paris next turn.

I would demand that we reloaded the game if my opponent forgot to make his land moves with Germany during such active part of the war.

I beg to differ. You are allowed to change your colours after you have selected a team but for me it has to be because of other reasons than how they perform on the pitch. This is especially true when it is a team in a sport that is new to you. One can not said to have made a informed selection by looking at a couple of cheerleaders. You can select the team because of that but if you later encounter things you dislike about that team then you are free to move on. There is, of course, a time factor to this. The longer you supported a team then the reason to switch team must be stronger.

I now want to mention Wimbledon Football Club. It was a shame how the team was handled by their owner and I understand any and all supporters who changed their allegiance from the team. I admire the ones who changed their allegiance to AFC Wimbledon but in my book it is ok for the supporters who moved on.

The Chinese also get another one - and this too cuts off a resource in Haichow,

Italy might not recover from this disaster. Almost their entire strike force has been annihilated.

Remember that you need a certain tension level as well in order to select some US entry options.
