  • You can’t place 4 Chinese infantry on Hong Kong because it is not an original Chinese territory.  Choose a different placement.


  • Zhukov, this game is over and I can demonstrate it.

    Triple A has me with 100% odds on Hong Kong with 16 out of 26 units remaining

    I will kill the guy in Kwangsi

    I will block off the USA fleet from Hawaii with 3 surface ships

    I will make sure Kiangsu is safe from take back.

    Do you resign?


  • You do have a 5% chance of sinking the fleet in Z33, which would make the block of Hawaii impossible

    However, that would only be prolonging the inevitable, wouldn’t it?

    I’ll play Italy when I get back, so you can certainly play ANZAC and try to get lucky again…

    May as well play it out.  There have already been a few moments in this game where a low-odds outcome has dramatically altered the game situation.  Besides, Hitler sent FDR a confidential cable that he wants the Chinese and the Japanese to destroy themselves to pave way for the 1000 year reich.

  • You still can’t place 4 Chinese in Hong Kong.  You need to place them somewhere else.  Could affect Germany’s turn, so I guess I have to wait.

    If you’re correct I’ll probably want to redo the Anzac turn.
