The allies are healthy but making less money. They have preserved their units but lost all center control. They are doomed without decisive action and a lot of luck.

Well I enjoy fielding questions like that.

I would never do the Yunnan bid myself, because my personal opinion is that Japan is designed to take Yunnan J1. A bid against Germany (of limit 1 per territory) doesn’t stop Germany from attacking any particular normal G1 target. In contrast, the Yunnan bid allows 3 or more extra units on Yunnan and that is a lot more disruptive and I think actually goes against the intent of 1 bid unit per territory.

Not only that, but I really like having UK bid units on Europe board. After that, I like Russian infantry on Germany’s eastern front, which happens to reflect historical reality more than Russian planes stopping Japan cold, deep in China. But I’m still not a big fan of making A&A more like history all the time. But some is good.

OOB question later
