It’s a coinflip on the US cruiser so I don’t expect it to go my way, but that is a big swing if it works. The French fleet was one battle, and I lost 3 units in Yugo which ended up being significant.

@surfer Well your AA gunners are fighting hard until the very end

I’ll finish China and UK later, I was surprised at how good SZ 40 felt despite the dice being almost totally even. thought I would lose more. Then SZ 112 I did better than I expected as well. The writing is on the wall for the Axis powers I feel (despite losing India)
