1. Please update the treasure Chart, because india only had : 17 Original terretories +4 Sumatra -1Shan State -3 convoy raid Malaya +5 bonus = 22IPC and NOT 26 as you collected.
2. Pleas type all of your combat moves. The attack on the Philippines is ok this time.
(even tough I think you wanted to move your fleet elsewhere in non-combat. You even send only 2 planes instead of 4 possible. So in upcomminge turns, there will be no combat with forces not mentioned in the combat move phase.)

Go Italy

There have been tons of changes to Alpha-3 in the last few days.  I’m inclined to cancel this game, sift through the changes, and begin a new game - I’d like to spend my time testing and playing the most up-to-date rules.

[cenator01]

Its ok to me.
I just want to ask about your plans with Germany/Italy/Japan. You saved a lot of money, probably to put pressure on the UK, but you can only attack it in at least 2 turns. The US is out of reach for Germany, no way to ever get it.

Japan is in a harsh position. Running out of ground forces, split up sea forces, with almoust no chance to unite these forces without major losses all over the place.

Have a nice day.

If You want, we can start a new game with the latest setup changes. I am in, but probably on the weekend I’m not in the position to post any moves.

Thx for the game!

[shadowguidex]

Yeah lets start another game soon with the current ruleset.  I believe the Axis will be better matched than before.

I saved money for Germany just to test out your response.  It makes Allied players paranoid when Germany or Japan saves money, and they tend to get very conservative quickly, building INF and whatnot for their capitals.  In this case I was about to Sealion UK and capture it in 2 rounds with 13 Air Units and 22 Land Units if you didn’t go total defense for UK.

Japan would have captured India again, and the Dutch East Indies.  Sure, USA is at sea zone 6, but Japan can make Minor ICs elsewhere and force you to invest heavily in land units and transports.  Japan was well situated for taking Sydney too in 2 rounds.  China was the problem but not too bad just yet.

USA was quickly facing the problem of a conquered UK, India, and Sydney…

Anyway, lets start a new game soon…you can be Axis or Allies, either way I’m not fussy.  Send me a PM when you’re ready to begin.
