Satinpurpledefender trial by fire (A Marine's attempt, to escape from HELL!)

First of all, thanks for the advice. I think I can adapt the American strategy a bit. There is still plenty of fight in my heart, so don’t worry about that. Good Marines don’t doe. They just go to Hell and regroup.
I’d be willing to sit in on your tournament team, and I feel I would actually do better in a situation where I am given some general orders.
I am sorry for slow responses and turns today. I had an interview this morning, and I am hoping to hear something more about it soon.
Just let me know what I need to do for the tournament game. I, like Journo, have never played Global. I’ll have to do some reading this weekend. If I understand the little that I have read so far, Global uses the Europe base rules and the Pacific special rules plus the A+3.9 errata. Is that correct?

Take your time, there is no rush here.

Sort of… If you went out and bought, Europe, and Pacific, you could play Global (At the back of the Europe rules, is the rules for global).
The Alpha 3.9+ stuff, is changes made by larry, to the rulebook, and the setup cards, to make the game better, more balanced, and fun.

You will have noticed two different sets of dice rolls for the same battle in Archangel in your inbox. Shortly (within seconds) of making my non-combat move with the British, I decided against my option, and I wanted to change it. I rebooted the game and replayed the battle. The second time around my fighters stayed alive, but I removed them from the board since they didn’t live through the initial skirmish. Typically this is not something I would do since it can lead to integrity violations and borders on cheating, but this is a learning game. I have no problems conceding victory to the Axis. I just wanted to see if my idea was correct, and how it would play out.

I played the japanese turn, and it errored out, and wouldn’t let me post… I saved the file, and it’s goofed.
I could fix it… but… would you prefer we just start a new game?

I debated taking West Russia, but I figured it best to put some space between the Nazi advance and the Motherland. I still don’t feel completely confident on my stack sizes, but I think that I am doing better than last time.
What do you define as a medium stack? Is it a stack that approaches the size of the stacks bordering it, yet not clearly larger?
