This was my first GOTM game and I thought I was doing ok, but now things don't look good. I controlled about 40% of the continent, as well as the island off to the North. Russia and England are gone, India is teeney, China is small, Japan is the third largest power.

I had the largest industrial base, and was trying for a space race victory when France decided to attack. They must have had nearly 100 units in a stack marching toward my major city of Leipzig. My only chance was to use tactical nukes. It did work and I wiped out at least 80% of the units outright and my panzers picked off the rest. Unfortunately he responded by nuking two of my cities. I responded by nuking one of his, and he nuked a third (this was obviously a blunder on my part). I think I will be able to hold off his army now, but his bombers are doing a number on my improvements.

On the plus side, I still control all my cities and have modern armor. He has three tactical nukes, but has chosen not to use them.

Exciting game, but I'm not sure I can survive.

I lured her stack of most of the extra mechs between 3 cities, 2 were filled with MA and MI's and armies and bombers, and one was empty. Fired a tacitacal which took out her stack but no damage to the cities themselves.

I also nuked most of her other cities as I conquered because those mechs were a pain to beat in size 20 cities. They get sooo many defensive bonuses.
