I was a bit frustrated by the way this game played in the Med but I think I mostly did it right. I can only really identify one major mistake. That was continuing the attack on Iraq UK2 when I could have just retreated to Trans-Jordan and kept the Suez closed. There was no need to take it UK2 when UK3 (or ANZ2) would have been good enough.

I guess I should have positioned the UK bomber in Gibraltar UK1 too. Would have been much more useful than a strat bomb on W Germany. I wasn’t really anticipating the loss of the SZ92 stack though - perhaps that was a pretty major mistake. With Germany holding Sth France, the 2 Italian fighters can be brought in. Still, it was only 36% and only that good because I lost a plane in SZ96.

If the I5 amphibious assault on Persia had gotten average dice, this would have been a pretty short game. The Axis got a lot of momentum, including Italian income, when they could pass the Suez. I guess I should have been able to put in another plane.

Scramble in UK?

@simon33

My great issue is winning in the Pacific… I just don’t know how to close. Why didn’t I press India harder? No idea. Taking Hawaii round 7 is nice and all but taking India round 9 would have paid off better.

[simon33]

No intercept.

I have a similar problem in the Pacific, so I’m not the person to ask. You came pretty close but I don’t think holding off Hawaii was a winning move for the Pacific, although it did tie up USA really well. I was also pretty surprised you threw all your ships and planes at that mini fleet I had.

Yeah, sacrificing the air might have been a great move IF I had been able to follow it up…

Did a bunch of edits at the end of Germany’s turn, moving planes around to land on carriers, realizing they can scramble out of Scotland, etc.

[simon33]

Hmm, if I’d have put the Caucasus bomber on Gibraltar like I planned, I could attack the SZ111 fleet, but then I guess you would have positioned slightly differently.

I still see a point in playing on.
