Scramble to Holland?
Intercept in Moscow?
I don’t really like this scramble to land idea.

@FMErwinRommel Well that was better than the US turn! If I’d had had average US dice the whole jap fleet would have been sunk. Hey ho thats a dice game for you!
-
Glad that I sank the rest of your subs before losing more capital ships. Even tho the TUV wasn’t great, I lost 2 CVs, my planes had to land in Java and my ships will have to repair.
-
@FMErwinRommel Was tempted to throw all the air and surface ships in as well but thought they would just be targets for your air.
-
Yes, without my DD, didn’t make sense. WIll post Germ combat turn shortly

@FMErwinRommel no probs…getting late here so no urgency

Got called away. Germans missed, your DD hit, so I took my sub. I only had planes left, so your sub submerged.

Instead of my usual build factory in Kiangsu on J1 or J2; I decided to try building extra tt & marine. Despite Russia massing on border on R1. Perhaps should have waited to try this out in a game when Rus goes West. Also did this in my newest game, despite ArtofWar also massing Rus on border. But made more sense for him than you, since Ger lost the opening battle for Paris, a rare but deadly occurrence. Allies often defensive and not always all massing aggressively against Japan. Don’t know if not building an early IC in China was a factor for you or him. Odds in my favor in Man, although not overwhelming and still negative TUV. But I couldn’t hold Yun, and could attack from Japan. So need to defeat someone now and build 16 troops that can reinforce southeast Asia. While the 3 allied armies have lots of troops, Triplea has given Japan a powerful counteroffense/defense. Good income, big air force and flexibility of fleet. The absence of the U.S. fleet will allow me to build troops instead of ships. Although I was hoping to have enough cash for a new tt. Tanks give me mobility and greater offense and defense. Once Russian Siberian army is destroyed, Japan can gobble up Siberia without interference from Russians or Mongols.
-
At first I thought that taking Celebes with 2 tts was costly, and then an ANZ tt was needed because the Japanese defenders took down 2 invaders. But combined with the coordinated Asian land advances, means Japan won’t be able to retake Celebes this turn or next turn. So the 11 point swing, -8 Japan +3 U.S. for multiple turns will be worthwhile. Rather than just single tt invasions like I did against you in prior games. However, this also means there will be no new amphib threat of consequence for a while. I’m guessing the U.S. will want to retake the Aleut before advancing into the Pacific, and ANZ will have to build in NSW, not Queens to be safe.

@FMErwinRommel stay and fight 1 round…obv if your sub hits take the dd as the casualty as the air cant hit my sub…hopefully my first strike will take your sub out! Long odds on a 1 though…
-
@FMErwinRommel A solid 44% chance for the russians and a good chance to thin some of your air out seems good to me…I knew the russians would be a bit vulnerable but wanted japan to take some tough choices…after the debacle off java I needed to put some additional pressure on…
