@captainwalker I was actually on the fence wether to attack or rather wait a turn before Japans move.
You could have prolonged it a bit by sending more yama and Hisa troops to Bangkok, but the supply line India to Malaya was just too effective.

Japan is doing okay it seems. :-) Meanwhile the turn order means that G now can-opens for Italy against R! :cry:
:cry:
I say Germany could need more units (from the start)… Russia is too much offensive for my taste… is kinda ridiculous
Yes - Europe looks like a sure loser from the off! My task may be to hang on while you rip the allies to shreds Seb.
Do get on with it, there’s a good chap!
Japans position looks good on paper, but with all the allied forces around I see a bleak future ahead of me…
Good to see your getting the excuses in early…… :-D
We love Seb!
Were you too busy to do America and mess up our chances of victory, Cred? I was looking forward to having a moan.
I hope you enjoyed your game of 1914. You are welcome to come and play at mine in January, when Adam comes.
Was at badminton last night. Will take tonight.
What’s going on in Jan?
M
Adam misses me so much, that he would consider driving the 100
miles to Hereford to play me. I suggested January at the earliest. Could do November, but December impossible for me.
Happy to have you both, if you wanted to come for the day. I said Sunday, but he could come on a Monday, while M was at school. (I realise that is harder for you.) Saves me being away from the children the 4 hours to travel il to Derbyshire.
