I made the edit. You will see that I split the Chinese units though and I also edited the UK cruiser since its initial move was tied to the stacking of Yunnan.

I have more confidence now in the move I made (in Yunnan). I thought it would be a bit cheap though to change my mind again given that I could see your Italy turn which in this case could effect  my Pacific choices (you took some pressure off of Egypt and so the air there could more safely move east if I needed them too).

I liked the Yunnan stack move because while you were likely to take it back, it should have wiped out at least half your air. But I hesitated because I thought you were still probably in a position to take it back and follow up by taking India. Once it no longer matters, I’m curious what you think I should have done there and hypothetically what your response would have been.

I saw the Kweichow attack as useful regardless of what I did in Yunnan. My thinking was that unless I had terrible luck I should be able to at least trade Chinese inf for Japanese land units that won’t be able to threaten India later. You can rebuild but it will take a couple of turns. Of course winning that made stacking Yunnan an option too.

Anyway, thanks for the opportunity to edit. Feel free to edit back if you think I should be stuck with my previous choices.

Also, as a side note, this is actually our game 2, not 3.

Just saw your comment JDOW after I made my moves.

I agree that my odds in the game are better if I stuck it out in Yunnan. It could go disastrously wrong but there is a lot of risk for Adam there too.  But I’m now making that judgement with a clearer sense of what Adam did on his Italy turn which has consequences for me in the pacific. Felt I’d be more of a cheat if I stuck with my original move (with all the new info I now have) than if I went with the edit (when I still hadn’t seen his move).
