2015 Championship Game: JDOW Axis vs Zhukov44 Allies+40

[JDOW]

In case General Zhukov didn’t realize during his hesitation phase: Montgomery meanwhile deceased, the endless stay in the African desert and lately jungle made him fragile, yellow fever did the rest.
Also, I guess you should look for a replacement for MacArthur, looks like he became mad. He is meanwhile talking about invading Nord Korea, but not to fight Japan but to remove the Russian influence!!!? Looks like he is ahead in time already. Also he is constantly calls the Chinese “traitors and backstabbers” and “dirty communists”. He developed a crazy plan to drop an A-bomb on the Chinese army in Shensi.

Stalin is doing fine though, at least the doctors don’t report any different except that they mention is advanced age.

Stalin should enjoy is transient wealth, it will decline for sure. Russians will experience a second Barbarossa by a massive German Juggernaut that will be more powerful than the first one  :evil:

However, the massacre at Java will come first. I wish I could just roll the battle and decide after it, but I have to do the stupid buy before which is kind of complicated I guess. If my stupid German Bomber would have hit :( In this case I could at least carefully blame the dice if I’d lose. Now, it is a 52% coinflip which only gamblers would call bad luck if it goes wrong.

I will procrastinate the battle until I return from holidays. So you have some time to think about replacements for Montgomery and MacArthur ;)

What a nerve wrecking battle. After the second round I had some hopes I could achieve a devastating victory but then the US nave struck back. I of course can’t complain to win this battle and 5 survivors is better than 1. So if I had lost I would have certainly resigned, now the situation in the Pacific is simpler, but it is not clear yet whether this has been a Pyrrhus victory or not.

Although I understand that this does not make the situation simpler I would ask you to continue in a reasonable time frame. Usually I asked for 7 days per US/CHI/UK turn, as this might have changed plans, 10 days, is fine, too.

Oh, what a blunder, I did not realize my stack at caucasus is vulnerable :-/

[JDOW]

and what annoying dice this turn :( Queensland :/

[JDOW]

Also, I did not realize you have a shot at egypt if you like, but that was only due to the annoying fact that the tank survived my attack.
Bud I cannot complain about dice overall, they won’t have been the factor in the end.
