[Eqqman]

You may have been precipitous assuming I would allow my entire Submarine force to be wiped out in SZ6, I will have to review the first round of rolls later.  Since it looks like you didn’t want to use any Kamikaze shots, I get a huge advantage from keeping Submarines around.

[Whackamatt]

You can only kamikaze for defensive purposes on another persons turn during CM.  So I can never Kamikaze on my own turn.

[Eqqman]

Well, either way, there’s no way I would take all Sub losses before losing any Destroyers.

[Eqqman]

I just checked the rules and you’re right of course about it being defense only.  Seems like an odd restriction from a realism standpoint: if you’re willing to crash a plane into a ship, you’d be just as willing on offense or defense.

Enemies saving money is never a good sign…

It’s amazing that even with keeping Japan down and central Asia swarming with British troops, I still don’t have a good feeling about this game.  Part of the problem is that it just takes too long for the Allies to set things up, during that time anything can happen.
