Ha, well, alas, if I fail to take Hawaii, I think you will win the game.  Pushing out the Japanese fleet like this has made me pretty vulnerable.  If we were playing by total conquest, I would have kept the fleet back, built more land units to push into middle east, invaded Africa and started harassing Australia.

ok Japan

We don’t have a complete game until R12, I’m afraid.

Z46 was totally against the numbers, and made it nearly impossible for me to defend.  Not to mention the very weird roll that caused me to lose an extra carrier in Z20  :x

You wrote this immediately after getting an extra hit from <neutered>heavy bombers.</neutered>

Well that game was maddeningly close.  Not bad for being my first real global game, though…
