@Sovietishcat:

@Ichabod:

If it’s 5 fighters vs 2 bombers, then yes, Intercept all 5 please.

Thought I could pull out a rabbit from the hat… lesson learned!

I got lucky dice there. Did you think I might not intercept?

I thought 1 bomber would have made it through and therefore understood your reasoning to attack. At this point in the game, if ANZAC is mainly just hurting Japan, of course it can afford to throw away bombers.

I took the liberty of assuming that you were not going to scramble against the entire Italian navy plus airplanes.

@Sovietishcat:

Even if the toasts are getting burnt for the allies, I am proud to have contain Japan!

You shut down Japan pretty quick! If I couldn’t get Moscow so quick, I’d have thought this game lost.

Germany has a shot at Iraq and Cairo next turn. I’m going to assume best defenses both spots of course and no scramble. Japan airforce to follow where ever / or what ever way makes the most sense to complete this game.

@Ichabod:

I took the liberty of assuming that you were not going to scramble against the entire Italian navy plus airplanes.

And if you would have wanted to scramble, of course we could still roll the dice for that.
