[666]

now that I look at this I think I would have done things much differently.

[Jennifer]

@JWW:

I could be wrong but I feel the axis (ger & ita) have gotten a bit diced so far, no? Should I be stronger you think?

Yes, I think you were in some places.  Like the French fleet.

correct me if I am wrong. On J1 the Japs could have taken CELEBES isles w/out declaring war on anyone?

@JWW:

No. England and Australia can annex them before being at war.  Japan has to declare war.  Some special arrangement between the British Commonwealth and Holland.

Here’s the rule:

If the United States has war declared on it by an Axis power, an Axis power captures London or any territory in North America, or Japan makes an unprovoked declaration of war on the UK or ANZAC, the United States may declare war on any or all Axis powers. However, if it’s not yet at war by the Collect Income phase of its third turn, the United States may declare war on any or all Axis powers at the beginning of that phase.

You are declaring war on England, they did not provoke you into war by moving into China or declaring war on you.  So America can stop waiting and declare war immediately on Japan.  (Normally they declare on round 3 and can make attacks on round 4.)

ok thanks, I’ve put too much thought into this at this point. I am not turning back. Come and get me!  :-D

[666]

so you think attacking the UK on T2 is a bad idea?

[Jennifer]

Oh, and Russia can declare war on Japan whenever it wants too.  It only has to wait until round 4 to declare war on the Germans and Italians.

As for whether or not a round 2 attack of England is “good” or “bad” really depends on how the players react to the situation.  You are giving America, essentially, + 50 IPC from their Objectives.
