Well, at that rate, I’ll never conquer China.  Also, dang it, I won’t have an attack on your remaining China stack.  :|

NCM

(note:  I miss typed a CM,  the plane that moved from z20 to z41 to sink your Anzac DD, it was a tactical bomber, not a fighter as I typed it.  I noticed that as I was trying to type out my NCMs a litter farther down.)

In some of our earlier discussions you were wondering why I didn’t conquer China yet, well I point to the bloody battles you keep inflicting on me!!! :-D  Since I am away from Japan and I have limited unit placement, you are slaughtering my ground units which is crimping my style in the Pacific.  That original J1 Phi battle along with the Sum and Kwe battle this round is keeping me whittled down pretty good.  Combine that with my Italian attack on Sfa and my attempted strategic bombing raid on Moscow and you are doing a good job of making this guy a pretty gun shy player for the remainder of this game.  :-)

Well good friend, I await the Allied response.

@Axisplaya:

Those 6 dudes in Kwe have been fantastic.
Their sacrifice will be remembered as they may have bought one more turn for India !

:-D

Ugh!  Yeah, and just getting to the point of clearing and holding Yunnan was no walk in the park for me in this game either.  I’ll be drinking a cold frosty one once I send the final Chinese unit six feet under in this game! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I also messed up an NCM move (my head is still spinning from that Japanese turn….).  The tac that participated in the Kwe battle only had 2 movement remaining.  It needs to land in FIC.    And while I’m at it, the infantry in FIC will move to Kwa.  Use this map.

It looks like we are both getting pretty good attrition as defenders in the last few rounds….

Hmm, I must have not scored Italy’s income on the chart correctly.  I looked back in the threads and Italy actually has 40 ipc to spend, not 37.  I also didn’t update the Italian round indicator for a while either.
