Let’s try again, this time with Marianas instead of Guam :grin: .

[farmboy]

@Adam514 Don’t think I will be looking for a repeat of Guam. That naval base makes all the difference.

And yes I am a bit afraid of the AA ( I assume you were referring to Holland and or Volgograd). I know I am due for some AA payback and figured those weren’t worth the risk this turn.

I sent a tac by mistake at Gib when I meant it for 92. I redid, but dice were initially rolled on the tac alone so it is up to you.

Also note that I assumed no scramble off of Gib.

What a game. And what kind of income shifts several powers have.

[farmboy]

@JDOW Its been a very fun (and stressful!) one. I’m very happy to have pushed this to round 38 and still have a shot at winning.

I think I’ve benefited from a bit of dice luck, and the axis advantage which has compensated for Adam’s better play.

Japan coming up soon.

[Adam514]

You have more than just a shot at winning.

[farmboy]

@Adam514 I would think so too, but I’d feel more certain about my chances if I wasn’t playing against you. :)

I’m trying to sort out what to do with the US fleet at Marianas. I can’t attack it. I think I can hold Tokyo and still keep Philippines for at least another turn (with blockers). Or maybe its worth just retreating back to Tokyo and then try to chase you back down. That saves me the blockers which I know I am a little too free with. And probably there are other options that I am not seeing.

Should make my decision in a few minutes but when this game is done, I’ll be curious what you would have done here.
