I expected to end that round with roughly equal if not slightly more land force count than Germany. Didn’t work out that way. Very disapointed.
I sound like a broken record, I know, but the dice in this game have been CAAARAAAAAZY
Man, that was horrible luck for you!

Japan takes targeted areas, but at a VERY high cost.

oh yes, the dice have been very out of sync, for both sides. Makes it almost impossible to plan, and one of us is going to get average dice on a turn and die of shock.

Unbelievable.
Silly me, I was thinking the Italian fighter could land on the carrier before that bomber attack. But the bomber is not American!
Bold and I call that the “curse of the clever”, or in this case, the “blessing of the oblivious”.
I make a mistake and the dice bail me out.
But of course - I was on DEFENSE! :roll:
You snuck up on Iwo! I didn’t have to pick that guy up, and I probably shouldn’t have! Nice pickup for you.
