Japan:
Kwangtung: +0.68 swing
Sea zone 37: +0.88 swing
Sea zone 35: +0.07 swing
Hunan: +0.69 swing
Yunnan: +0.07 swing
Philippines: -0.36 swing
Total for round 1: +1.69 in favor of the Allies
Two more to assign.
Unfortunately I count 7 units to start with which took 5 hits, one on the battleship, leaving only 3 remaining units. 4 dice were rolled. Is it convention to drop the right-most hit? I think my return fire also wipes the attacking force then.
Hit to the destoryer.
Yup, worse than I thought…that was just pathetic.
Collect 11 + 5 NO - 1 convoy = 15.
Go France.
Wow, rough turn for Italy. Worse than UK2 by a lot.
France
The Algerian Resistance gives you the bum’s rush. On average they should hit you once in 6 rounds. On average they should be dead 3 rounds before they do.

France is done, to hopefully make things just a little more difficult for G3.
Swell. Dice will turn for me. You’ll see.

Let me know where you want those hits.
Crap, I forgot what I was doing with my buy. If it’s okay I was supposed to buy an airbase instead.
Eh, I guess it hardly matters. I’ll just keep it. Killing those transports for free will just be a little extra salt in Italy’s wounds.
Both destroyers, 1 on carrier, 1 cruiser.
Sorry for the delay, real life and stuff. You can change your buy if you want, or keep it. It’s a friendly game. :-D
No worries on the delays. I lose 2 ftrs and a tac. We press on.

Phooey. Have to ask you again here. Keep planes?
Yeah, I will keep the planes. I can always buy another carrier right where that one blew up and I want to shoot down as many of you’s as I can.
I keep a fighter and the bomber. In for a penny…

What a freaking disaster. Over those two turns I should have had the majority of my planes left. That may have cost me the game right there.
Collect 56 again.
Can’t disagree with you there. Fortune was forgiving towards my aggressive placements. Mutual annihilation was better than I could have hoped for.
Russia 3:
We declare a peacekeeping action in China… though surely the bellicose government of Japan will consider this a declaration of war. I have adjusted your IPC total on the board.
Buys: 6 armor, spend 36.
Manchuria is liberated in combat moves.
Collect 37 + 1 saved (+1 from same purchase order last turn that I marked on the board, total 39)
Actually I have one addition since it kept eating my NCMs. Fortunately you have not moved yet, so I will post the update. My sub is supposed to be with the battleship in z113.
Japan buys

11 inf = 33
