I didn’t say it’s a concern, actually I like it. The UK player keeps London safe, but their forces aren’t enough to threat europe. That’s like ww2, works great!
Maybe some more resistance in the medi would be cool, but that’s a map problem rather than balance problem. (If it was me, Egypt seazone would have been 4seazones from Italy and 2sea zones from Greece, making Greece an important base to launch assault against Egypt. With 4 seazones between Egypt and Italy you would see a more caution naval campaign)

Actually there’s a concern I have and it’s about Japan.
If Japan keeps the +10IPCs NO for too long (say 8 turns) and he doesn’t attack the Allies, he gets 48 IPCS/turn + any IPC taken from Russia. This means USA won’t be a big deal with 52IPCS/round in say, turn9, what do you think?

the allies are still out producing the axis at this point even without the extra US war income.
the usa will get the war income on round 8.
yes, japan can attack russia (and that’s what hitler wanted them to do), however, it could come at the cost of a weakened navy. Â
eventually japan will be spending much if not more time on sea than land.
looks to me like the usa is war mongering against japan!

a blitz moscow strategy might be tough to beat, it would be up to the UK to save Moscow.
Can you adjust one thing for me during your Italy turn?
Just put 1 UK fighter from sz110 to London. Thank you
1 ftr to London as requested.

england is ineligible for its NO. please be sure that you have not collected on that no on past turns when it was inappropriate.
I collected it only during round1 when I had all my original territories?
ok, yes I see that you didn’t collect it. i was thrown off by the fact that its NO was still indicated on the map. no problem. china is the same way but clearly you did not collect chinas NO either.
