Ill confirm tonight but I think that will do it. Thought you gave me a chance by not taking a transport to z26 but you can use Anzac to take hawaii after clearing it with US.
I am surprised I couldn’t eke out a win in pacific with how little you put into that theater. I will have to look back at things to see what I should have done differently. I think I messed myself up pretty good everywhere when I sold out for India and then decided not to follow though. Sacrificed my Med fleet to draw away UK air and gave up Sum for nothing after I decided not to sell out for India.
I also underestimated Russia. I thought your buys were too aggressive and that I would be able to punch into Middle east but I could never spare enough air on that front to really threaten anything. The G1 air losses really hurt. I guess I have been lucky since I started playing again as I haven’t had to deal with a G1 like that yet and it really added up.
Ill double check things tonight but I dont think I can defend Hawaii, Kiangsu, and win a 50/50 battle for India even with a bit of luck. Well played.

It has been a rough axis game from the start. In Denmark we have a saying “mange bække små gør en stor å”. Roughly translate into Many small creeks make a big river". All the small dice thing adds up in this game.

ha. wouldnt have worked out anyway but +16 hits in India removed all doubt :)

Good game. Feels like I should have been able to do better in the Pacific. Kept looking for an opportunity to take Australia but was always just a tad short. Getting trapped in the Med early on was also an issue. Wanted to keep you back for another turn but you had enough to move to z91 on US4 which really hurt.
Anyways, learned a lot, good game.
-
yeah if those dice haven’t made their point about bashing the axis before, that India battle sure made their point clear.
The other game I’m running at the moment just took a major dice swing against me today that might end that game early so write if you have room for a new game.
