Edit: What-if UK did not go for aggressive Medi fgt buy in UK1, and instead focus on sea mine in sz 12 and 15, and buy inf art atg at ratio of 4:2:1 and occasional tnk bmb for Cairo.

that is all.
This is the first game I have ever played where the game was not over after the fall of Moscow. I don’t think I will ever see this again. Very interesting game. We’ll have to do a rematch.
Thank you Jim. That’s a great compliment coming from someone at your level.
@Vance:
Thank you Jim. That’s a great compliment coming from someone at your level.
That’s more of a compliment. My post count really isn’t reflective of my playing ability. I’m probably midgrade.
If I had to point to something, your Alaska Shuffle, (while I was aware of it, I have never played against it), has screwed up my planned Japanese advances. That and your successful plays against Italy really confounded me.
All being said, I have no clue how this will turn out. How has your shuffle worked out in the league?
This is the first time I’ve tried it.
Japan coming.
