Do you want to reconsider the American move to Carolines since that seriously ruins the game for the Allies when that fleet gets crushed on J3?

If you want to move your US fleet to some place safer than Carolines, feel free to make edits during ANZAC’s turn.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

I could have done it even without those additional units since I could get a couple bombers along with another couple of planes to hit the SZ and land on the unconquered island.  It would be a very rough game without those US ships.

That US transport has to either stay in the Carolines, or alternatively undo that combat completely.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

Undoing it completely makes sense, keeping our ground units alive.

[oysteilo]

I guess a Manchuria minor is a sure thing after seeing all the trouble I got into!! I guess Italy will die a slow and painfull death in this game too. Obviously it is much easier whith the bid

It is not obvious to me why the German fleet should stage in 113 at end of G1? If UK goes for the fleet it is OK I think, Now you just let him of the hook and he has a great backbone to build a fleet around. Staging at 112 you can take him out G2?
