In our game…it’s looking like there might be a stalemate on the eastern front for a turn or 2…but Japan looks like it’s going to become stronger than the US fairly soon (or already is stronger). I’d like to play it out a little longer even though you demonstrated how a 30 IPC bid could easily be mitigated. When I played a table top game with siparo, (he plays at GenCon), he said at those table top games they didn’t have the restriction of 1 unit per territory…ect (whether G40 or G42 setup). Playing against him, I just asked for a house rule agreement for his 24 IPC bid to be split up between at least 2 countries. Those 24 IPCs were enough for him to hold Germany back while his team executed a KJF.

I’m not very good at this game period…and I mostly play Axis. Not many games as the allies. But I made some newb moves, last roll in China 1 against 2 Jap infantry vs 1 Chinese infantry/fighter. Lost the fighter. China was still going to go down real quick, but that was annoying. You probably could see some of my lack of skills in doing an early landing on Norway. From my Axis perspective, any attack like that which diverts some resources away from Moscow is usually just enough to slow my momentum down (to where Moscow doesn’t fall on Round 6 or 7). But the flip side is that Japan maybe slipping away because I didn’t do the right combo.

I used to buy a bunch of bombers, similar to the amount your spending, but another player better than me said, “why are spending all that $ on bombers if your not going to strat bomb, 2 tanks have a better chance of getting a hit than 1 @4 dice plus they can help defend important positions like Bryansk.” That sunk into me. But in our game, I see the versatility in the air power purchases made as it was easier for you to have the power to easily smash the fleet at SZ112 with limited loss and get Norway back real quick. When I buy planes for Germany, I often buy 2 tacs. : 1 fighter ratio. But for attacking, it’s probably much cheaper to just buy bombers overall.

yes, max defense and scrambles

I want to attack SZ54…any particular order you want hits taken?

My goal here is to lower the amount of Jap planes next to Sydney.

You got diced real bad at SZ54.

Please review that critical battle to determine if I took the hits off in the correct order. I had a near perfect 1st roll…so it was hard to tell the best order going forward whether to tip or sink more carriers vs the destroyer being a casualty right away.
