@farmboy it might still default to something close to what we end up. Both players have to be thinking both that they don’t want to give anything to their opponent and they want to a good position if htey end up with allies. I think that might lead to well placed but low cost units (which along with a fig or two makes the most sense in a standard bid game.

Hmm…
What is that stack of Japanese Mechanized/Armor units doing in Central China… up to no good.
Is it a blitz for Hong Kong? A reinforcement of India?
A push for MOSCOW? Lots of possibilities…
If Moscow were to fall, that would tip the scales back into your favour… Germany is STRONG.

Hay today is the deadline for one of us to concede if it is to count as a 2014 game. Would you prefer your victory to be a 2014 game or a 215 game? I still want to make one more Japan move but I don’t think the math is on Germany’s side now.

I think you are going to scramble India, as it’s 50/50.
If I am wrong, be my guest and redo the battle or edit/as-required on your turn.
