Question: When London falls, does the rest of the UK stay sovereign? Could you take Canada with the US?
While London is under Axis control: if the Axis takes a Canadian territory and then the US takes it back, the US will gain control of the territory, it’s facilities (if any), and the IPC. But if the Axis never invade Canada, the US can never take control of Canada.
It’s no different than how French territory works after the fall of Paris.

With Calcutta doomed, and Japan soon to be stronger than the United States, I think I should concede the game.
I should have kept investing in the Pacific. The German bomber fleet made it too risky to leave SZ91 and I didn’t make a dent against Italy.
This was a fantastic game and I’d love a rematch, Axis or Allies, anytime you’d like.
I would say, overall, the luck was on my side, not in any major way, but it just seemed like I always got a little more than I needed (hitting on single 2’s, consistently successful BR’s, etc.)
Also, if you want to play again switching sides, I’m game :-) You definitely made this game a challenge.
I would say the SBR strategy paid off big time, both against the UK and Russia. And even while just parked, they deterred a lot of Allied activity.
I’m going to try something different to try as Axis, so I’ll think about it and post a G1 tomorrow sometime.
