@ArtofWar1947 Both correct, and wow! Kuomintang proving quite thorny!

let’s call it. i can trap your retreating brits and crush them, but seems like no matter how many big battles i win, allies just keep coming back stronger. def that would not be the case with bm. i think axis are seriously disadvantaged by lack of can opening. i think that was the one huge advantage they had in prev editions, and without that, they are going to need help with ever higher bids.

i’m not sure what else i could’ve done… seems like soon as you swung over to pac japan was doomed… and without that threat allies had all the time in their favor.

i’m genuinely at a loss… won massive battles, italy and germany so powerful and japan was holding out well, yet everything collapsed in a matter of a few turns once you swung over and spammed subs. the sub spamming is def ridiculous as well.
