@AAGamer:

I forgot to unload the Anzac transport into the Irian Jaya and the fighters killed the Japanese without any loss so I just went with it. I hope that is ok. I was able to edit it to get the color changed to Anzac and get the NO.

Hey I thought I responded but I guess I didnt. I looked at those dice from earlier and you were right. I have that Hotmail account opened and it normally shows only 1 dice roll per line and for some reason in Hotmail it put both of them from that US battle into one. Not sure why it did that but it doesnt matter.

Also on another note I was trying to play the AI in a game and it is bugged that all the aircraft carriers end up damaged no matter what. Ever have that happen before or know how to fix it. Every turn all of them end up damaged again. Strange. Not happening in our game though.

I’ll try a game vs AI - not familiar with this kind of issue.

Let’s see what you’ve got planned Russia!

I need to finish this game before Christmas.  Need the troops to come home. :) See if you can help me keep the game moving haha!

I don’t believe they are.  Mongolia is a whole separate exclusion since 2nd edition.  But for the purposes of our game, I’ll allow you to activate them using the EDIT command if it so please you!

I am assuming FULL Scramble.  As it appears that was the intent of the Australians bailing out the Carolines!

If I am wrong - please let me know :P and we can address.

My Navy scored 11 hits.  I will give you maximum defense.

That was below average!  I don’t think you realized my bombers were in range.

The Pacific fleet is all but destroyed!  2 Destroyers remain, tasked with holding off the IJN!

But the Atlantic is equally troubled!  What are you going to do?!!? :) :) :)

Build planes?  Stack the hell out of Hawaii with what forces you can get there to keep Japan away.

Your bomber force is formiddable.  But I dont know that it really has any decent targets.  Could go for queensland, or could go to Haw,

You could probably get away with minimal investment in the atlantic, but London is also under threat…  Bombers in West Usa can hit LONDON/HAWAII/QUEENSLAND, maybe thats the best place to put them?

Get well soon!  Need to finish this game next weekish if possible! or I won’t make playoffs lol.
