Archangel, Tambov, Bryansk, Kazakhstan

He’s a real gold digger  :-)

Uh, no
Germany is very strong, despite losing more bombers to 1’s again, as happened early in the game

@axis-dominion:

it only took, oh, 17 rounds for japan to finally get around to it…

Yes, I have a totally different strategy than most players.  I have no interest in going after India early or quickly.  I do prefer to take it late and easily.

You’re trolling Me1945, you’re trolling me, it’s not appreciated.

Now that’s a fairer post

You can’t take credit for the dice making it difficult to take out the India stack…. it could have gone the other way

In case you hadn’t noticed… the European map could be completely irrelevant.  Of COURSE I took out the Indian stack with the Germans.  I’m just thrilled Ghost didn’t make me do it with the Japanese

You also put too much value on the middle east.  We’ve both convoyed 80 significantly during this game, nullifying much of the IPC value

Too much discussion at this point - let’s see what Ghost does with R18

And by the way, if you were playing Ghost you would be dead by now, so… a little respect please

@Gamerman01:

Now that’s a fairer post

This is for axis-dominion, to be perfectly clear (since blighter squeezed a post in before mine)
