I must have put the wrong password in, because the game didn’t post the first time. I didn’t get marti dice. Did you?

I will gladly redo the combat if you didn’t get marti emails. Let me know. Marti emails come to me erratically, delayed.

Excuse the edit. When I didn’t take Burma, I put mech with my I.C.'s to defend against possible air attack, forgetting that my builds would suffice as defenders. I thought that I was cruising along in the Pacific, after sinking the Allied fleet and Germany’s success diverting your attention there. But the Allies still have slightly more income and while the U.S. hasn’t rebuilt its fleet to the size of Japan, it has built up its bomber force. I suddenly realized that Caroline with bombers and ANZ fighters for defense, was a potential threat that should be stopped before you reinforced it.

Stopping the UKPac N.O. for no subs in Indian Ocean is harder than it would seem. DD’s in Egypt and S. Africa with the help of land planes, can reach every sea space.
