Did you calculate Berlin defense for an air attack like this? It was strange for me to see only 17 defenders vs 18 air attackers.

This turns the game into advantage for me I think.

Yes. If all your ground in Bri, I would had splitted my air from Norway, some to eliminate Baltic Fleet and the rest to Moscow defense. But I think with the same move you did and just 3 mech from Baltic States to Berlin I would have not attacked either.

I don’t think I have ever beat you……is that right? I need work on my mid and end game w/axis…you really didn’t have a large atlantic navy either…

Not yet, the first times we played, dice helped me as fas as I remember, then I improved a bit. On this game, as I expected it is being really hard for me and much more fun, your strong initial strategy + dice putted high pressure on me. Your Japan have been superb, but somehow I could survive, and after that, some Europe unconsistencies have given me a chance to balance this. Still not finished, this could still be your first win.
Yeah, superb blockage now, average was 6/10, but I have invested a lot on that sea and instead of having strong blockages since round 5 or so I start getting them in round 13…
