War has been declared

[Gargantua]

@FMErwinRommel:

Looks like may be peace in Africa also, as there are no ground troops, except the token, peaceful Soviet mech.

Peaceful coexistence indeed!

Lol!

Italy had 15 turns to declare war and didn’t! And then had the dice to blown away the Russian offensive into Romania!

16 turns deep into an epic game!

[FMErwinRommel]

Don’t worry Dawg, we’re sharpening our Banzai swords waiting for more favorable odds and shifting our focus constantly, to keep the blue eyed devils, well excluding our German allies of course, off guard.  Who knows, we may send mini subs up the Hudson River or the St Lawrence Seaway and pay you a visit. 😀.

[Gargantua]

The Japanese submarine control of the Southern Hemisphere does keep my allies up at night…

[FMErwinRommel]

As it should.  We’ll be silently sneaking up the Thames someday.  Watch out, was that a periscope I just saw sticking up from the water.  Just to clarify, we are sharpening our Banzai swords but trimming and shaping Bonsai shrubs and trees.

Ha!  Brits turn to be hit by AA in the Indian Theatre.  The Americans continued the peace trend but Brit broke the peace with the bombing raid and a suicide sub attack off of India and paid the price.  My peaceful tt was just taking troops on R&R cruises to Ceylon.  And Brit continues the arms race in the middle east.

Yes, the Brits paid the price.

The Brits are just trying to maintain the peace.  The Japanese want to invade the entire world, except for Russia of course.  The own China, good chunk of the Pacific, India, trying to invade the Middle East, and heck even have some Japanese African territories!!!

Russian Brits were enjoying too much Vodka and almost forgot to move!

Here’s an idea… Let’s all enter into a truce with the Japanese.  Then they can figure out which country they will break it with and then take over the entire world!!!

D.A.- The British attack on the sightseeing cruise to Ceylon has already determined whom the Japanese will attack.  The future British Beatles have it right when they sang “We all live in a yellow submarine”.  All together now: we all live in a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine.  Advertising announcer: There’s a yellow submarine coming to your neighborhood soon.

[FMErwinRommel]

Dawg!  You’re supposed to leave the kamikaze charges to me.  Those infantry would have been better served defensively in Slo-Hung, combined with the Germans to make the Russian advance slow and costly.  Try to hang on as long as possible.
