Combat
1 inf fr Hawaii to Marshall Islands (takes away the bmbs landing spot)
Attack sz 25 with dst fr 26 plus 5 ftrs fr 26, Hawaii and WUSA
All 6 shots missing, you get used to this kind of thing when you get the kind of dice that I do.

Sometimes bringing 5 ftrs and 1 destroyer to kill one destroyer is just not enough
Ok the odds were 1 in 144, so I should have figured that would happen.
The worse thing is that I have no doubt that your destroyer will hit a plane next round, but I have no choice.

You always have a choice, dear. You could very well have allowed the destroyer not to be sent to Davey Jones’ Locker. What did it do to you?

Wait, he was supposed to expect you crazy Americans to continue dive bombing him after that spectacular display of missing the broadside of a destroyer at 30 yards??? He figured you were done!

LOL. Yeh, we’re definitely in need of some target practice. yeesh.
And yes, I like to preserve my air force and that reminds me. Despite the loss of India, I still think I am better off because of the 2nd round Japanese attack. You might need to re configure that for a 3rd round attack, but then, India has a chance to build up more, and you lose the shock and awe effect of strafing an infantry stack which sends the clear statement, “I’ve got so much more frackin’ air force than any other country that I can use them as cannon fodder”
-
Yes. You surrendering the Pacific to me was a surprise. Without that, you would not be in the position you are now in Europe, and that would not have been possible if I had not attacked on Japan 2, if I had waited for Japan 3. I will have to look into it.
It also helped that you were willing to put all those pretty targets in Burma for me to smack around. Still, 20 aircraft and 12 ground units that Japan can bring is quite a bit for little India to whether…
Anyway, I got Egg Nog in Berlin, ya all coming or can we start drinking now?

I didn’t exactly abandon the Pacific. I eventually got around to replacing most of what was pulled into the Atlantic.

Berlin? Rome? . . . all in good time comrade, all in good time.

Remember, had my defenders in London had average dice, they would be free citizens right now, and this would be a totally different game. Coming out of sea lion with all tanks surviving (albeit stranded now) plus the luftwaffe in tact, almost unheard of.

Yes, I got lucky in England - I don’t know if that would have really helped though. I was going to win that fight, it’s just a matter of degree…if I had gotten almost wiped out, you would have liberated, but I would have had my fleet.
