So when i attacked Russia I was planning on strafing depending on the outcome of the first round.  So i kept your AA guns alive after the first round since I figured you’d want them alive if I retreated.  Then the second round attack went so well for me that I decided to keep going and I took your AA guns as losses to give you a better defense.  I don’t think the two infantry would have mattered considering the planes I still have alive.

I’m not really sure of the protocol for that, but I figure I’d take your losses as if I was defending.

We can maybe take one of my fighters as an extra loss or something if you would have taken your AA’s out on the first round…I’m not sure…

Yes, it was a creative approach, and slowed down the Japanese advance, but just a round or two too late to start supporting Russia…without a bid at least.  I’m down to play another game with some sort of standard bid, but I’m going to be busy for most of the night tonight.  As far as which side, I don’t mind either way.  If you also don’t mind, then maybe I’ll do Allies this time.  I can set the game up later tonight or tomorrow

Yeah, I was thinking of that bomber bid. I think I’ll do that.  This will be my first game ever playing a human as Allies, so we’ll see how this works out… :|
