Well I almost fell into your trap of liberating the UK but saw you’d have a 92% chance of taking it againo - and all our honest taxpayers’ money!

Bombing run on Rome, scrambling?

[Omega1759]

Every turn, Japan has a distracting target to work on…

Well played for delaying Japan, but I think that sending the US fleet at the bottom of the Philippine sea was a big price to pay.

Paksos, I declare you expelled from Europe! :-D

The rebuilding of the Luftwaffe must continue!

[Gargantua]

I’ve been reviewing both games Paksos…

Do you want a formal debrief after the games?  Things to look for, things to try differently?

That said, I have to say that I learned something very interesting from watching your play.  Specifically how you have held Leningrad in our game, and probably will for another 2 turns… a very interesting ploy indeed!

[Omega1759]

I did like how Paksos made use of the Siberian troops in our game. I really did not want China to push forward while seeing the Russians come back in Amur. That was a good move and could work against a Japanese player with less experience.

Paksos needs to tweak his UK play a bit. If you play as aggressive with UK in face of a player that is ready for Sealion, Russia has gotta be more aggressive.

As America, don’t focus on transports and troops until you can adequately protect them.
