China, India, Anzac, Russia and the US are like ants trying to topple the Japanese monster who’s air force is immune to ground fire! :)
Man Japan is tough to slow down!

France vows to fight to the end!
60 bid. And the Allies player is not a rookie but a strong player. That is certainly ambitious.
I am surprised, Allies to not use 23 of the bid to shut Yunnan down for J1 as this would also bring 3 additional artillery for the Chinese.
Uh, I looked at the map. 4 turns played and the Axis position already hopeless.
I guess that 60 bid was a bit too ambitious.
Boy, you cannot skip Yunnan and Hunnan J1 just to attack Amur. That is suicide for Japan.
Hi JDOW,
[Commenting in retrospective manner only as you did here]
The economic, TUV and capital numbers certainly look good for the Allies, but margins of safety aren’t wide by any means. Japan losing only 1 plane on the Shan State stack consumed a big part of any margin I had.
For equally matched players, it doesn’t take much more for the Axis (in terms of economics and logistics) to cause considerable trouble even in their current position.
Sinking of two Japanese transports on R2 (even vs. a Soviet Fighter), not contesting China and exposing the German fleet in 112 (making Norway naked and giving Soviets their NOs) are all big contributors.
I’m not sure how much AndrewAAGamer appreciated the potential for the Soviets to pull back and for Moscow/India to be reinforced quickly even with a late US entry in the war. My aggressive multinational “Rocky Balboa” tactics against Japan (paired up with relatively heavy Atlantic investment by the US) and versatile use of planes can throw things off.
While I will admit this is the first time I have seen Amur stacked and attacked it the big issue is my poor decision and dice in Karelia. I gave the defender a 4% chance of holding and that came up and I should have brought more air power. I didn’t realize the consequences of not taking Karelia that allowed the US to kill my Finland defenders. Otherwise I think it is a fairly even game.

@AndrewAAGamer said in L20 AndrewAAGamer (Axis) vs Omega1759 (Allies +60) OOB:
While I will admit this is the first time I have seen Amur stacked and attacked it the big issue is my poor decision and dice in Karelia. I gave the defender a 4% chance of holding and that came up and I should have brought more air power. I didn’t realize the consequences of not taking Karelia that allowed the US to kill my Finland defenders. Otherwise I think it is a fairly even game.
Agree with that, this was an opportunity I couldn’t pass up. Germany and Japan still very strong, and Italy still has an air force.
