Re: [eia] British naval phase, 12/06 (part II)

["J.J. Young" <jjy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry to be a hardnose, but in my opinion Joel already passed on
intercepting the first two fleets, and it was only when he saw how my orders
continued that he changed his mind.  Of course, when the Portugal fleet
moves into the blockade box Russia can intercept then, before any more
fleets would join the battle (and they would).

Sorry, Joel.  I'd like to be generous, but if I lost the battle because of
it I'd be kicking myself too much.

What do the rest of you think ?  Am I way off base ?
