I see you don’t want to scramble.

I just realized I forgot to include the attack on Burma too.  2 Inf, 1 Ftr vs 1 Inf

all right, I am calling it a game. I have nothing here long term. I couldn’t really figure out a good plan for Germany after the dicing in round 1. I guess the game was pretty much over at that point. I believe it is more or less a 65 “bid” for uk. The battle should be +20, was -27 and combined with your scramble you could just buy usefull stuff for the British, Carrier etc

Anyway, I think I was also too passive with Japan, at least in round 3 and 4 maybe already in round 2. Should have bought trannies and taken down anzac or India probably……

Ohh well, Never really played this scenario before. Anyway, good game an good luck in the final!

[Shin-Ji]

Thanks very much for a thrilling game, Oysteilo!
