If I do win this game. Of course I acknowledge that I got some good dice at very important moments in the game.

Also, you’re not taking a bid which is generally acknowledged as an entitlement for the Allies side.

I don’t think you’ll try to attack Moscow, but if you do, for the OOL, Jap bombers are the last casualties please.

Whatever else you might attack during your turn, best OOL. But if it’s say the case where a tac. bomber could be the casualty (like at Ukraine), best OOL. However, if the situation looks like the Allies have a very near probability of losing the rest of their stuff, than please select a defending fighter as a hit instead of a tac. bomber. I’ll trust your judgment of course.

For my play style, I generally like to replenish my German air force with fighters.

I think Hawaii is going to get snatched up. Be the end of the game here quicker than I thought. I was thinking that the US was going to be able to defend Hawaii indefinitely.
