Changed my mind about ship blocking the US fleet.  Too expensive for so little gain.  Next turn will be rough for Japan as I get my troops back in position.

Yeah, back to the Philippines.

You must have miscalculated everything that I could throw into Southern France.  I was rated to have 8.5 casualties.  Instead I had 7.  That is pretty close to expectations.
