Can’t believe how much trouble this game is giving me. Guess Japan is really suffering after losing that fleet in sz21. Has a better fleet now but has lost a lot of momentum it seems and is somehow struggling to clear Yunnan, perhaps because of the distraction of having to fight USSR.

@Stucifer Ugh…sub captains everywhere have read the book the Japanese sub captain put out…Can’t kill em and they convoy well.
