@simon33 thank you so much for the game, looking forward to this!
GLHF!
Again, the Soviets will do nothing so go ahead with Germany and Japan.
Cheers
Quick question, can you see a path to victory (getting to 14 VC) for either side?
I’ll be honest, I can’t. Â But I wanted to get your opinion, no need for strategy or details, just if you can ever see this game ending.
I even took a screen shot of the map to look at while I’m at work. Â lol!
I decided to do a unit count too.
Axis
Inf - 557
Rt - 34
Arm - 191
Ftr - 35
Bom - 5
Total - 821 (3162 IPC)
Allies
Inf - 418
Rt - 26
Arm - 81
Ftr - 50
Bom - 1
Total - 576 (2275 IPC)
Huge land unit lead for the Axis. Â But if you mix in the ships it gets closer:
Trn - 45
Sub - 5
DD - 8
CA - 1
AC - 12
BB - 4
Total 75 (669 IPC)
Overall:
Axis Units - 821 for 3162
Allied Units - 651 for 2944
Yes I see a path to victory. It may not be until 2013, 100 or so rounds from now. :lol:
Cheers

I’m hoping to get G up tonight, but if not, it probably won’t be till Sunday then.
