Alsch (Axis) vs Auswanderersland and JamesAleman (Allies) Alpha 2

If I don’t declare war turn 2, Japan must decide if they will turn 3. If they do an unprovoked attack on UK/Anzac, USA may declare war turn 3. Thus a relationship exists: attack UK/Anzac and USA will/may attack Japan  :-D cause and effect. Typically, Japan may not care if USA attacks, I intend to make things interesting if my plan works  :roll:

For Questions: Contact via wireless communications and I will consult during my face to face game. Strongly advise giving Japan 12 IPCs at this point, may reconsider pending further consultation.

z.AAM

I’m pretty sure a DOW by Japan against Anzac also triggers war with UK and a DOW by Japan against UK also triggers a war with Anzac so that you are effectively blocked by this plan. Is that correct? Or can Japan DOW against one and ignore the units of the other? If so, will reconsider this plan.

Andy, ignore putting units in Nte…too far from Australian capital in a pinch. The z55 maneuver is not worth it at this time.

Have them go to Sau instead.

z.AAM

If I didn’t know you, I’d think you are a weirdo.

You do think I’m a weird anyway.

Andy, open your personal message regarding this turn.

I promise never to use “beige” again.  /facepalm.

Does that include Cpr for Britains collection?  The map said 35, but I recognized there was no way I could be that high, but I didn’t have my maps handy to count it out.

And one more thing…I failed to move the units into Sau as requested by JJ.  So one more noncom move if you would allow this.

The 2 troops and artillery in Nte pls move to Sau.

I included new map if allowed.

JJ is having an interesting F2F game with 3 other players.  JJ is playing the allies again.  Japan did a turn 1 attack.  Its an entirely different scenario, and I am excited to hear about it.

Thanks for the correction btw

Britain collection stands at 28 IPC
