this game’s looking pretty much over

yeah its a really clever strategy.  you practically beg for sealion but screw with Japan by sending sending the far east Russians to Amur then Manchuria.  That saves UK pacific so axis really can’t win on the pacific map and Russia is always pretty much unstoppable after sealion.  The beauty of it is that if the allies player doesn’t go for sealion, UK basically got to do a lot of things it couldn’t otherwise do (scramble, build in south africa, Taranto, maybe Tobruk too).

I think we’ve pretty much shown that you can beat me twice and that’s enough for me.  If you still want me as a partner in the tournament I will basically take your orders and offer what i can.

OK shin ji, take care.
