Oof. Very good dice for the Soviets this turn:
Net Allies dice swing: +4.31 swing
Net Axis dice swing: -4.31 swing
This means the Soviets ended up with 4.31 more units than they would’ve had otherwise.

Congrats on the win, well played game.
Thanks… I was not sure I got all the victory rules correctly as I did not understand why you moved your Indian forces back… and did not try to recapture India the last turn or in the following turn.
Lack of focus on my part
Toward the end, I thought you had the game won, so I was not as tenacious as I could/should have been
Still… I think I really screwed up European theater… I really need to figure out how to play there better… any feedback is welcome.
I don’t recall anything specific. It may have been a case of me putting more resources into that theater, with the resulting outcome being a loss in the Pacific theater. I would be game to try Allies again, since I certainly feel the same way about the Allies in total, as you feel about the Euro Theater. On the other hand I can also see you wanting to try your hand against a different opponent.
I would be up for a replay… you can take Allies again, just let me know how do you want to adjust the starting bid and how do you want to spend it.
We can stick with the 8 bid. Give me two artillery in Alexandria.
