Having nothing to attack has never stopped you before from trying   :-P  You are playing a much better game this time, being aggressive without being over aggressive.  This has been an exciting game.

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.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

Yeah, back to the Philippines.

I was so worried that you would be attacking one of my Japanese fleets this last round.  I have been out of position after going into Amur.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

Yeah, I thought though that you would gladly trade fleet for fleet.  I needed that Malaya fleet to retake the money islands.

There are too many factors to really do an OOL since early dice rolling affects later choices.  I trust your decisions in taking my casualties.  With your follow-up ANZAC forces, saving planes at the end is more important than saving battleships.

If my battle calc is correct, you should have a 29% chance of winning and an average of 7 Japanese units left.  TUV swing = -27.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

No thanks.
