@Tizkit:

Japanese roll dice for 11 fighters and 4 tactical_bombers in 44 Sea Zone, round 2 :  13/15 hits
                    Americans roll dice for 1 destroyer in 44 Sea Zone, round 2 :  1/1 hits

Ha 13/15… if only it mattered.

Lets keep him on the land and try to preserve 1 infantry for me.

Thought I considered all your possible shenanigans… but apparently not or I would have put planes on the land.  :p

I’m definitely learning a lot from playing you… I don’t think I’ve had a game go this long where I’m playing Japan.  At least not where it mattered.

I’m actually rethinking this.  If you haven’t done it yet I think I’d like to change my mind to scramble.  If you’ve already done it then no worries, I’d like to see how it plays out either way.

Yeah go for it if you want to do a video.

I had considered you doing that to wipe out anything built off of FIC but overlooked the land.

Still a costly IPC trade for you though… will be interesting to see how that plays out.

Gotta think for bit on the next turn… will hopefully get Italy done later today.
