I assumed your sub did not want to fight in sz 35.  Let me know if you did and I can roll it on the forum.

Looks like the Allies were fierce but seems early for the Axis to throw the towel, Germany and Japan income is healthy.

@oysteilo:

I just posted your win here. I have next to nothing here long term. Well done with your very aggressive approach!

Thanks!  I must admit I am quite shocked at your decision.  Your axis income is still high and giving me fits.  I can’t seem to crumble Japan below 60 IPC’s.  Russia can stall out Germany a couple more turns but the middle east is not solidified yet.  I am happy to take the win but I feel if you need to rethink your decision I am totally okay with continuing this game.  Maybe take a week or so and see if you want to continue,  let me know I’ll be here.  Cheers!
