Tinydictator: First Blood (Axis)

And as with every monster, some good guys will come and kill it. Or, in this case, some bad guys. :evil:

Honestly, your stack in Bryansk is impressive, but I’ll still be able to take and hold Leningrad. All I need to do is retreat in the south and possibly send some reinforcements (you can’t pursue too far or you’ll leave Moscow undefended). And if you haven’t noted, there will be no US-invasion anywhere anytime soon. Btw unless I get very unlucky, your remaining forces in the Pacific will be crushed now.

The idea to place a factory in Iran is nice - I had the same idea for Egypt anyway.

But now, Japan!

Darn! That went not too bad for you: 3 hits out of 3 units in sz39, and the probably most annoying thing is that I actually got into Yunnan! That was supposed to be a hit-and-run operation…

I take the 2 Ftrs and the Tac from Sze as casualty.

You know, if you were Japanese your generals would consider harakiri now.

First Blood (Japan5).AAM

Actually, China gets a convoy raid on Kwa:

Rolls: 2@3; Total Hits: 22@3: (2, 2)

Also, the US is in no position to fight both Japan and Europe. And Russia is certainly not able to hold out against Germany and Italy for long (I may remind you that they get outproduced 3:1)
