I am curious how you won as Axis if you never captured Moscow? Buying so many infantry really tempts me to buy another couple rounds of fleet in the Pacific since I know that Germany is not going anywhere quickly.

Just money and victory cities. I can never capture Moscow. I just starve them.
Well then I guess I am going to learn about a new strategy.
If the Americans go for the Philippines, order of my casualties (until ALL 10 or 11 of your subs are dead….) is as follows…
all 6 of my subs…
1 DD (I need one to find your subs)
the cruiser…
then start taking hits on the capital ships. If I kill ALL your subs before my DD dies, kill both DDs before you take hits on the 5 capital ships.
Scramble everything. I am hitting you with 6 zeros and 3 tactical bombers vs your 4 P-51 Mustangs and the 2 B-17s.
I was going to go for Malaya (to keep Singapore) this turn, but then I saw all the subs you could hit my fleet. I can’t afford to do it this turn. But if my calculations are correct, the two big islands I took, it is impossible for you to retake them for at least two turns, so it seems like the better strategy. I thought about this Japan turn all weekend. I had way too many options.

I know I promised that I would use the armor and go to strip the CCCP of all their IPCs out to Vladivostok, but you had too many infantry and too many planes to “suicide” into them before they could get free. I need to get up to like 20 armor to pull that off. So in the mean time (while I build up), I’ll try for the lower victory city and force the UK to stop them. You’ve got that massive stack, but it can’t go for “both” South and North.
I love that tactic you are using with the mech inf in Africa. That is like 3 IPCs a turn I can never take away from you, brilliant! I’ll remember that the next time I play.

Japan has a very small window, very tiny. The window is the US doesn’t really have any transports in the Pacific Ocean. Actually, the allies don’t really have any transports in the whole Pacific. So, my “wealth” isn’t really threatened on these coming turns. So with that tiny window I am going to take which ever you let me have, either most of Southeast Asia (and half the British economy) or you’ll let me take China out of the game. I can only get one and its whichever one YOU let me have.
This was a very interesting Japan turn. This game still has a lot of play. When you have a huge navy, you still have lots of options.
