I’m getting a bit tired of these Allied superman… First Russia, then I lose 4 inf and 1 fig to take out 4 inf in China? And only manage to conquer one territory despite employing 5 inf and 6 air? This luck better start turning. I still think I have the game, but if every Allied unit keeps hitting it’ll be no contest.

I don’t agree with that analysis, specially after what’s been happening in Russia, but it doesn’t matter. I could’ve taken the re-roll but I prefer to save it ;-)

All intercept of course!

You lost 24, I lost 30, but I bet I’m happier :-)
