It was a good move from you to make bold moves and invite attacks at Burma or Caro.

I think, with all the money that goes almost exclusively in the Pacific by the USA I guess Japan should better not throw her units into battle but rather play carefully. Let the Germans do the work and just make sure to stay safe is Japans motto.

ok! I just defeated Axis Dominion! Now I defeat you!

Ha… not really. I think given my time constraints I can really only play 1 top tier player at a time… partially explaining my dismal showing here… should I just surrender?

Probably but you haven’t really knocked me out yet.

Karl7

Wait> didn’t russia declare war on Japan?

I guess I forgot to do that… would that make any difference to Japan?

You want to allow me to DOW w/USSR and you then adjust Japan?

I screwed up…

JDOW

Allies chances are very slim. But I do not like to tell my opponents to surrender. Totally up to you.

JDOW

@Karl7:

Wait> didn’t russia declare war on Japan?

I guess I forgot to do that… would that make any difference to Japan?

You want to allow me to DOW w/USSR and you then adjust Japan?

I screwed up…

Oh, now I saw that post. I admit. Now as you say it I realize I did not consider that the bombers can reach Korea.
However, I am not even sure if Russia needs to declare war at Russia in order to allow Allied planes to land there. Do they?

Karl7

yes, USSR needs to be at war in the PAC for the US to land there….

If you deny me (within your rights) then I think I am done… taking Korea is really my only hope, like charging the Death Star.

JDOW

Fun situation. First of all. I do not have to deny you, I can simply block you from Korea and maybe reposition my fleet and then Korea is safe.

But the simple truth is: I overlooked that your bombers can reach Korea and I did not consider that they can’t land in Russia.

So honestly speaking, I would deserve the “punishment” as the requirement that the Russians need to DOW to allow Allies plane to land was not part of my plans.

So declare war on Russia and take Korea. It will hurt Japan but they will not immediately collapse and the German juggernaut should deal sufficient damage in the next turns to destroy any allies hopes :)

JDOW

Declare war WITH Russia ON japan and…

Karl7

Yay!

My chances of winning just went from 10% to 11%!
