I think that does it for me.  I should have done my previous round a bit different and I would have had it.  Anyway, that was a fun rerematch.

good game!!! what do you mean, like what would you have done differently?

[axis-dominion]

also, odds weren’t great and avg tuv was bad for that normandy battle, you don’t think trying to play for a japan VC win perhaps would’ve been better, since you got china and india? maybe play defensively in europe and then send your german fast to protect china, and german air to help beat down the allies in the pac? or get some german navy out of india so you could transport troops to help conquer anzac? idk i felt like you still had possibilities…

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

I should have softened up the stack a bit by hitting it first with Italians.  I felt that I was losing Russia back to that advancing hoard of Allied forces.  My German income was going to rapidly shrink.  That would give you more spending on the Pacific side of the board to contain Japan.  I just haven’t made it to such late stages to come up with good strategy.
