So it’s post 1945…. :lol:  Good play!  I think if it were not the submarine attack the fight would have last a lot longer.

Would you like to try another game using Axis or Allies?

[JEB]

Indeed it is. But in this game Japan was beaten first :) Well played! I think you have grown as a player! It’s been a much tougher fight these two last games. And next time I have to pay more attention to your sneaky air plane attacks!

The turning point as I see it was your attack on my japanease fleet, up until then the game was progressing as I wanted. Maybe if I wouldn’t have wasted all that IPC to your sub the game would have lasted longer, but only if I could have spared reinforcement to Germany from Japan.

I’m up for another game, sure. I think I would like a revenge on this map (again!), maybe this time I will start to get a grip of it. Just so you know, I will go on vacation on friday, and have quite irregular internet access for the coming month. If you’re fine with that, we could start one now. Otherwise after I’m back.

[innohub]

Certainly! I hope you will have a good vacation.  Where do you plan to visit?

And I know it will get tougher and tougher fighting against you.  Would you like to be Axis or Allies this time?

[JEB]

Thanks! I will go to Sweden and to the US.

I think I have to win with Axis on this map before I can try the allies :) Let’s see how long that will take!

[innohub]

Very nice!  I have never been in Sweden.  Would love to check out some day.

Let me start one in minute…
