I think this game is over. India is toast. That stand and fight decision in Yunnan was utterly woeful. Poor timing on the Neutral crush. I’d just passed up the opportunity to take out Sweden. Turkey was a problem too but I thought it a price worth paying - the Greece move was a disaster. I did it to block Turkey’s activation but you got it anyway amphibiously - and destroyed 14IPC on the way. The intended 1-2-3 punch in SZ20 was incredibly misguided.

You’ll also take Africa.

I’ll post the result.

Well, it was a good game nevertheless. Interesting Allied strategy that kept me quite stressed-out.  You definitely had some bad rolls in the Pacific. Could’ve been a different game after I messed up and left Japan vulnerable, but the dice gods bailed me out.

Let me know if you’re up for a re-match.

[simon33]

I think that battle was a boo boo too. I could have avoided the amphibious assault which was only 42% and strengthened the naval battle. You’d have had to sail back to Japan rather than support amphibious assaults on the Asian coast.

What side do you want?

[StuckTojo]

I’ll bid 21 for the Allies.

[simon33]

I’ll let you have the allies at that.

[StuckTojo]

OK, do want me to set it up or shall you?

[simon33]

@StuckTojo:

I can but I’ll need your placements.

I’ll attack:
2subs + BB + ftr + tac to SZ111
3ftr+3tacs+2SBs to SZ110
2subs to SZ91
1sub to SZ106

Scramble?

Well all that is assuming you don’t place in any of those places.

[simon33]

Actually, might make it 2subs to 106 + 1sub to 91.

[StuckTojo]

OK, let’s go:

1 sub sz 98
1 art. Alexandria
1 art. Anglo-Egypt-Sudan
and
1 infantry in Amur
