Allied bombing is causing massive starvation and death throughout Italy. Besides the city destruction, the disruption of rail travel means foodstuffs and coal cannot reach the populace...by winter the death rate will be catastrophic.

Eric could you post how points are accumulated? I looked in the HoF txt file but I couldn't find anything? And what amount of points produces an "automatic" win? Thanks!

 

[AnthonyBoscia]

Don't sweat the details, Sully. All you need know is that 162340 + 97655 > 140165 + 40145. Better get those Brazilian tanks a-chuggin'.
