[gamerman01]

I need you to declare what units are on what transports in Z13 (You have 2 that must have infantry and tank from GBr, but the other two could have one infantry each, or 2 on one)

This could affect whether you could pick up one tank or two from Algeria, and what you could pick up elsewhere……
Need you to declare before I do anything with Italy, because you are threatening various Italian holdings and it makes a difference how much you can pick up.

[LuckyLindy]

Two transports have one infantry each.

By my estimation I lost a few too many aircraft…  :-(

[gamerman01]

Sumatra taken, but at maximum cost!  UK income is up by 4, but she can ill afford to build much down there….
Jap fleet can now start to be assertive again with all that American air gone…

4/11 AA is really terrible, but you did get decent offense after that, and the Jap fighters under-performed…
But, of course, you needed a much better result than you got to stay in the game…

[gamerman01]

@LuckyLindy:

By my estimation I lost a few too many aircraft…   :-(

Actually, you still ended up in the 60th percentile, a little below average.  Your good offense and my mediocre defense helped make up for the AA disaster.

But I think you needed an above average result there to stay in the game.  Are you going to continue?

[gamerman01]

Could have been worse, too, though.  28% chance that you fail to take the islands at all.

[LuckyLindy]

That’s what I meant, needed it to turn out much better than that.  Yes, working on the noncombat moves.

[gamerman01]

Yeah, it did succeed so you have a build option in the Pacific with the UK, income is up by 4, and Jap income is down by 9.  Allies still making some noise.  Looking forward to seeing what you do with all that American fleet.
