Also just to verify: I believe japan has no transports with the fleet off of z36. Looks like you left it in sz6 with new ones. Hard to tell them apart from DD’s at times. Just checking to make sure that Burma cannot be Amphibious assaulted, if needed I will block with a DD at 37 from India.

I’ll be going to bed, sorry I can’t complete the full allied turn at this time.

I’ll try to post when I get home tomorrow evening.

Definitely giving me something to consider: declare war with India/Anzac or not.

[Kobu]

If only China had an AA gun, eh? Good night. I’m looking forward to see what you come up with.

[JamesAleman]

@Kobu:

If only China had an AA gun, eh? Good night. I’m looking forward to see what you come up with.

2 things are making me respond to in game situations. Therefor, I will adjust and deviate slightly from my game plan:
London is still in the game, and Japan’s 2 extra carriers.

I believe I still want India to DOW in order to secure 3 NO’s between the two I will not likely recieve. I’ll use my time at work to run through the other options in Asia in my head.
I’ll probably use London production and an additional US carrier in the Pacific to address the 2 Jap carriers, this will permit India to capitalize in Asia by building land. Japan’s turn 4 potential is great enough to force this adjustment in the Pacific. At question is the Spain strategy, which is still in tact, I am not married to the Pacific approach I outlined

Moves to follow, this evening.

Great game
