Russia done.
Japan on the move…
I think our last game was interesting and that this one will be too:)

I concede. Every faction is more or less defeated. Have to have a look where this went wrong.
Personally, it’s in UK I believe - though I’ve just lost another game where Sealion was a huge success. That’s because he went all out with 24 units attacking at once.
Let me know if you want another?
Cheers!
I guess your right. Pretty big investment to fail at Sea Lion.
That enormous investment of 12TTs though. Didn’t that cripple the German advance on Moscow?
Same sides or swap for the rematch?
Japan made a few big mistakes too. Not least being not buying a TT J3. If China can hold Manchuria, the 3IPC per turn is hard to stop.
You choose which side. And by the way, I thought you had me in UK anyway since I left it too undefended…
I’d say same sides. Same placements for you?
yup. let’s give it a go!
