Oh I am wondering if I am doomed in this game already.
Certainly anything can happen with the dice, but the odds are looking a bit long.

mean dice there

I’ve been on the wrong end so many times but the misfortune for the Allies on the US attack of Midway was a key time for the luck to reverse.
The dice hold up well on the Japanese counter that was then possible, and we have a reverse Midway. And an awful lot of fighting to go
The Japs now have but 5 warships on the board, and there are 3 Allied warships in the Pacific. The US also has 5 planes ready to take off from California, and while the Japs have 12, there are still 5 fronts, though each are fairly weak at the mo

It’s all about 6 cities now, and we have a very interesting scenario. A lot has to play out

You did realize the German bomber on
