@Elrood That’s somewhat true, but G is mostly a one-trick pony, take Paris. While the Centrals have won many, but not most of our games without G taking Paris, as the other players and their strategies and abilities took center stage.

I slipped up putting 3 Amer subs in sz91. Usually spread them out so an enemy dd only sinks one sub at a time. I was thinking I could hit the Ger fleet quicker with them by the naval base. But overlooked that if so, the Ger dd could likewise hit my subs first. Costly mistake.
Witt, skip Rus turn and take Jpn. I know you said you would be busy this weekend, so whenever. You are winning the war of dd’s vs subs. -

3 bombers to Egypt turned out okay for Ger. No AA hits despite increased odds. And 2 bombers rolled 1’s, for damage of 3, so 2 bombers ensured full damage, assuming no AA hit.
Yes Ed. The third bomber was to allow for you scoring a hit.

Anhwe was a killer for China this round. Japan took it without loss this round and when China retook it, all 3 Jpn units gave hits. But the noose is tightening around Japan. Borneo was captured and Cel will also be taken. 25 Amer planes annihilated 13 Ger ground troops in a single round in Cau. But the Ger DD by Gib took an Amer sub and bomber with it to the deep.

I was wondering whether you would ever try that in the Caucasus. I guess I will have to stage my units more carefully.

It took a long time to build up the Amer airforce to the size necessary to take out such a large ground force. Constantly attacking the Ita DD tied up bombers. I don’t see another way for your reinforcements to reach the frontline. Italy has been a major pain for the allies, who have expended major resources. Those many 5 point N.O.s allow Italy to pop right back up. Italy’s location near the 8th Victory City means I can’t ignore it. ANZ N.O.s give Japan a similar problem. I edited Rus inf to Persia on my turn, since Rus doesn’t take its own turn anymore.
