The attack was closer than it should have been for a while there.
Good game. Want to flip sides and go again?
-
@weddingsinger I accept the surrender; I thought we had a good chess match in the Pacific. Since the allies was doing well in the Pacific; I was able to spent almost 100% with USA in Europe which really helped me!
-
@Sovietishcat I really needed to do something more bold. Japan spent too long holding the line that the result was losing territory.
Ditto with Germany… its fine to spend to hold British Isles but to FAIL to keep them means I missed my chance to take Moscow.
Hell of a good game, though.

@weddingsinger Ya I am up for a rematch, I’ll take the Axis, you take the allies+16; what’s your email address? Where do you want your bid?

(no spaces, of course)
For the bid… I’m thinking something different…I’ve wondered what adding a destroyer to each UK sea zone would do at the opening, but…
Let’s do 4 Russian artillery, one each in Novgorod, Archangel, Belarus, and Baltic States.
