That makes sense.
I just think this way because the first two times I played this game I found the Axis at a huge disadvantage with almost no plausible way to win.
Your play is making me rethink that.

Interesting move, Jim.
@Cromwell:
Interesting move, Jim.
Maybe so, but I screwed up something fundamental back in the first and second turn.

I’m interested in learning, as I think you have more experience than I. What do you consider to be the error in those turns?

I appreciate the compliment, but I was trying a weird tactic that will likely not work. As for how I screwed it up, well, I’ll keep that to myself incase I want to try it out again.
