Brutal, about 1% chance of me winning now. Sub hit, OOL? Feel free to finish the battle, if you keep subs I keep subs.

[boldfresh]

lose the sub - go ahead and roll the rest of your attack

[Adam514]

Buying 3 fighters with Germany and sending bombers to India?

ok - you have two “zero percent” battles to go.  course i’ve seen wheatbeer win a zero percent battle so it’s by no means over yet.

[boldfresh]

had you kept the russian airforce in kweichow you could have forked the two victory cities, giving me much more of a headache.  i recall my frantic calcs telling me you could have something like a 10-20% shot at each VC.  combine that with your ~20% shot at hawaii and you can see how i put you at roughly a coin flip back then.

[Adam514]

Yeah but Kweichow was in danger of air strikes from Japan and Germany.

Anyway good game, you expertly made use of my mistakes to steal the game away, kudos. A loss here should be better for me long term I think, I was pretty ambivalent in the end.
