Got it, I didn’t see that I also had a FAQ, was thinking I only had the CLASSIFIED clarification
Now I see my specific question is answered, the carriers could not even split up during a combat move that ends in the same place

Russians defending brilliantly as always. Germans failed to take Karelia.
To shocked and demoralized to move the African units on non com, I edited them into place.
Back to UK -
I should go and get lottery. Never felt so lucky! It’s already midnight here. Time for bed. Will try to do UK if not woozy but not sure.

Neah don’t worry about it dude. Get some rest, maybe it’ll give those dice a chance to cool down heheh.
:-DThe fighters in Anwhei are already making my head spin as is. I don’t know that I’ve seen an fighter stack that deep in China this late in a game. The Japanese are hopelessly stalled. Serves them right for thinking they could push early. The flying tigers are clearly balking at the Manchuria move.
Catch you tomorrow

Man I can’t even believe how poorly Japan has played. Just terrible, truly terrible. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they’ve lost every single important combat/trade/roll since the game began. Its a personal record for mismanagement, botched plans, and battlefield ineptitude. Worthless tank, curse you to a shallow grave! hehe
:-DBack to USA
-
I have to say anything can happen in dice. So no point get upset by that.
-
Yeah I’m not really upset by the dice. I have nobody to blame but myself hehe. The truth is that I made some rather regrettable assumptions about your level of experience based on the bid and the way UK opened. You’re playing an excellent game, whereas I set myself up for dissapointment with decisions I made on J1. And then really screwed myself with lackluster positioning by both Axis powers the following round. Basically I backed myself into a corner, into a situation where now I actually need the rolls to have any chance of recovery, and of course that’s never where Axis want to be lol.
Don’t worry, I’ll play to the last. Hurling bodies at the problem until the final defeat.

The exact move I was afraid of hehe! Nicely done man!
Honestly don’t let my early morning grumbling about combat rolls diminish the brilliant plays you’ve been making. China has rocked it this game. I know all too well that any bad luck I may have suffered along the way was due to gambles I made and then lost. I could have chosen not to bomb for example, or I could have chosen not make some of those early move outs inti Burma and Ukraine, hanging my hopes on narrow attacks and defenses. But I made my bed, and I’ve got to sleep in it now haha.
I’m off to work, but I’ll be back later tonight with the German response. Catch you then dude!

Hehe one can hope, but unfortunately the Axis have completely lost the initiative at the center. It will be enough at this point just to try and hold Berlin and one other VC to prevent your 10 VC win for a few more rounds. My German armor will be needed to defend the fatherland soon, so playing chicken with the Russians in Belo is just a formality. In an alternate universe Japan might have been in a position to take over as the Germans withdrew, but that’s unlikely to happen here, since I can already see the Allies slowly creeping back into the Pacific. It’s like watching a trainwreck in slow motion. Still, I enjoy the game, and will play on to see how long we can draw it out. Who knows, I might catch a break somewhere and bloody the Allies on defense at the very end. Just to close with a bang hehe
