What, no invasion of Norway? Did our welcoming committee scare you away? I see you transferred ftrs from W.C. to E.C. and built 2 more in E.C.

Back to building inf in Gre instead of tanks? I was counting on you permanently diverting more funds there.

When the empty Brit tt’s moved to the idle Brit inf in the homeland and joined up with the American tt’s, what was a minor threat is now a major threat from Norway to NorBor. Here’s where a modest Ger bomber squad on sentry in W.Ger, could have threatened the movement from the Med. The Italians could have moved 11 troops into Bulg this turn. But by the time they could attack Gre, the U.S. would have added more defenders and my chances were slim. Frustrating, since most are not mobile and can’t be in position this turn in Ger or Fra to repel any invasion. I couldn’t help but look at the 2 decisive, climatic battles looming for Japan: the fleet battle in the Pacific; and the land/air battle around Persia.

Oh no, not the Fre joining the expeditionary force. Now I have to increase my counterattack strength. And you will have no one left in Brit. This game needs paratroopers to take out London. And paratroopers would really help the Axis in the Med to take the islands. ANZ with 2 CVs! I heard that New Zealand has more sheep than people, but now Australia has more CVs and more ftrs than people. And its only person is walking about New Guinea looking for cannibals and orchids.

Just playing the rules we have! Also in other versions USSR gets quite a bit more NO’s which helps the Allies…

Intercept 3 Japanese bombers in Moscow with 1 Brit fighter?
I’ve been waiting for a long time to do this. Just wish it was 6 bombers. -
I’m adding a combat move: 1 armor from E. Persia taking empty Turkmenistan and returning back to E. Persia. Since its uncontested, will edit rather than post another save game.

Sweet dice. No losses in the battles that mattered, but only where it wasn’t as costly. Bombing raid killed interceptor without loss and no loss to AA. Caused 14 damage. Air attack on Rus tank succeeded without loss of planes. I lost the one 50/50 gamble sub vs DD in Hawaii.
