Agreed, you’ve certainly got a right to complain. :oops:

Yeah, it’s crazy that Germany is even still relevant at this point. You did a good job shutting down Italy and threatening European landings quickly.

I’ll very likely be launching every possible unit at Hawaii with Japan, but will need to study the move later tonight to confirm that. In case you don’t see my post in time, may I assume no scramble if I all-in Hawaii? I suppose you don’t need to answer now if you think it disadvantages you, but I’d much rather get the dice rolled before I go to bed.
