You can’t place 4 Chinese infantry on Hong Kong because it is not an original Chinese territory.  Choose a different placement.

[gamerman01]

Zhukov, this game is over and I can demonstrate it.

Triple A has me with 100% odds on Hong Kong with 16 out of 26 units remaining

I will kill the guy in Kwangsi

I will block off the USA fleet from Hawaii with 3 surface ships

I will make sure Kiangsu is safe from take back.

Do you resign?

[gamerman01]

You do have a 5% chance of sinking the fleet in Z33, which would make the block of Hawaii impossible

However, that would only be prolonging the inevitable, wouldn’t it?

I’ll play Italy when I get back, so you can certainly play ANZAC and try to get lucky again…

@Gamerman01:

Triple A has me with 100% odds on Hong Kong with 16 out of 26 units remaining

I might have made a mistake.  Now I’m getting 98%

Whatever - play it out to the bitter end if you want - I’m not trying to offend you, just looking to let Ghost back in on the action.  Like you said, he’s waiting

@Gamerman01:

You do have a 5% chance of sinking the fleet in Z33, which would make the block of Hawaii impossible

However, that would only be prolonging the inevitable, wouldn’t it?

I’ll play Italy when I get back, so you can certainly play ANZAC and try to get lucky again…

May as well play it out.  There have already been a few moments in this game where a low-odds outcome has dramatically altered the game situation.  Besides, Hitler sent FDR a confidential cable that he wants the Chinese and the Japanese to destroy themselves to pave way for the 1000 year reich.

You still can’t place 4 Chinese in Hong Kong.  You need to place them somewhere else.  Could affect Germany’s turn, so I guess I have to wait.
