I remember we all did the math on SBR’s like 20 years ago. Honestly, I don’t SBR unless it is a critical component of my attack (reducing defense) or if I have heavies (duh). Think about those US bombers for a sec. Had I sent them on SBR’s then eventually they would be whittled down (for 3.5 ipc’s per turn with a chance at losing 15 ipc’s.). If that were the case, I couldn’t have hit your Japanese fleet.
Just some thoughts. :)

Combat Hit Differential Summary :
Russians : 1.00
Japanese : 0.50
With Japan not able to conquer anything I think this is over, but if you don’t mind let’s play it through another couple rounds. You’ve been showing me things I hadn’t seen before and I’m interested in seeing you follow through. But if you would rather move on to other or new games I’d be willing to concede here.
Outside of that, I’d probably be interested in learning one of the newer A&A editions that seems to be more popular today; what would you recommend?
That sounds great, we can play as long as you like! Global 40 is all the rage currently of course, and it is a fun game. I haven’t played anniversary in several years, but that was always one of my favorites as well.
Some of it depends on how large of a game you want to play. I’m surprised how many people don’t play Europe or Pacific separately (versus “global”). I own the physical copy of that game, and on human terms it’s a lot less intimidating to only get half of it out when playing with friends lol.
