Twilight Struggle, Aftermath

A very strong initial hand has paved the way for the whole American strategy. Russian had made several concessions at the beginning by no fighting for Italy or Iran, key countries at Europe and Middle East.  Slowly, US position was dominating in the whole world and only a big mistake with the timing for playing the Asian Scoring card, together with some luck in the Indo-Pakistani War allowed Russian player to equals the score. But the feeling for Russian player was that he would need a lot of luck in events giving VPs to really fight for the game.

With the pause in play forced by Xmas and our lack of Internet connection at Holidays locations, the interest and concetration for the match was cooling down and Russian decide to gave it up. Nevertheless, TS is always a very funny and absorbing game that we can play really fast (some times, even a turn per day). It will come bck to our tables (screens) soon.
