I think your destroyers and subs should continue rolling 3’s  :-D

wake went slightly worse then I hoped for, but still it looks like Germany is about 2% to clear wake out. Lets hope that is true……

Most likely I will do an edit with the USA. Planes in midway sz will land on midway. Not on the carrier

i dont know what your plans for germany are, but in case you decide to attack with two bombers in the pacific OOL is

Midway sz: scramble both planes, first two hits to carrier, then both planes, destroyer stay to the end
wake sz: scramble all 3 planes. loose all planes before destroyer
johnston sz: hit to carrier, loose destroyer, then two planes and carrier as last causalty

in europe I want to see what you declare

[oysteilo]

and france is done btw

[majikforce]

Thanks for the heads up.  Im not sure what I am gonna do at this point.  I pretty much sold out like five turns ago to win in the pacific after i was very careless with my german stack in russia.  All that planning and i forgot to calulate for the air base in wake.  Excellent defense on your part!  I feel like it would be wicked cheap if my german bombers somehow won the sz.  But i might give it a shot.

I think I am going to concede. I don’t see anyway to dig out of my hole.  The Allies will just slowly choke me out economically.  Great game play!  Really nice pacific coordination.  I will never build the greece factory again.  Total waste!  And I learned my lesson with my German stack.  Great job.  Maybe I will see you in the playoffs.  We should play again in the next league year.  Good luck in your other games.  I will post the result.

Thank you for posting the win. It has been a lot of fun playing with you, and you REALLY have given me a hard challenge! I also think the allies will win this game. I also think if Germany somehow managed to can open for Japan I think the allies will take hawaii back the same turn. Potentially 8 japan units there. Counter: 3 American bomber and armor + inf. Anzac 3 art + 3 inf + 1 armor. With the americans in queensland and potentially 7 subs in the pacific I think (not calculated it in detail) that American clear the way, both for itself and for anzac. Then I think the Norway campaign has been VERY destructive for Germany. Down 8 ipc but also, must send units west instead of where they belong, east. I think Italy and Germany has given the british a really hard time in the med. Maybe you should have been more agressive here? I don’t think the German factory in greece is a total waist. It has been a struggle for UK. But I do agree it was destructive for Germany in Caucasus. Yeah in the initial battle you lost too many units but I would have continued to the bitter end in the counter. I am not sure how solid my pacific play is with staging at java. I dont have control and you are really close to snapping the win.

Not sure if I am signing up for the additional playoffs. But a new game in 2016 will be fun! Good luck to you!
