One other thing I should have mentioned: I redid the strategic bombing raid, and achieved exactly the same result as before. This was good, because I don’t know if it’s possible to use edit to increase or decrease the damage to a factory.

Italy is up.

The entire Axis fleet had been massed in a single sea zone. A zone into which other Allied units were unwilling or unable to enter. “What is too difficult for our allies is child’s play for us,” said the captain of a lone French destroyer. A destroyer which, acting without orders, ventured into that sea zone to take on the entire enemy fleet.

In such a battle, there could be only one outcome.

Le triomphe de la France!

@allweneedislove:

if you happen to be around and want to finish this real time, log into triplea online.

For those watching this game: I’m logged in right now, and we are playing. The U.S. just lost its West Med fleet to an Italian attack. I was careless. :(

Further update: Germany delayed its Iraq attaq by a turn. It elected to build exclusively air units, presumptively in preparation for an attaq next turn.

ANZAC liberated India. Japan collected zero IPCs after blockades. But the loss of the U.S. West Med fleet hurts. A lot!

Italy attacked the West Med again, after it had been heavily reinforced. Italy sacrificed its fleet and airforce, but took out most of my ships there. Let’s see what Germany decides to do on its turn. Will it take out the rest of the fleet and the transports? Or will it throw everything it has against Iraq? . . .

In other news, there are now five ANZAC subs in the east Mediterranean.
