@Ghostglider Axis used some unusual strategies in this game. G4 & J1 DOW, strong Kreigsmarine, naval take down of India. The J1 DOW is unusual only in BM of course. Were you gunning for the win in the Pacific? Hard to achieve unless USA abandons the Pacific. Personally, I’m not a fan of the Kwangtung IC. Out of the action, less importantly it can be taken by USA or even Anzac. I think Kiangsu is much better and should be J1 even though it is the same distance from India. Mobile units produced there can reach in 3 turns so only 1 round of production needed for India, rest for fighting China.

The Allied sticky landing on Greece was interesting. Grabbed the Axis’ airbase which is a nice bonus. Always a danger with building the Greece airbase but I often do so.

@crockett36 Got it, I like the idea, that or we switch partners. I’m a bit rusty with the Axis but not bad. Just I’m not sure if I would be a worthy Axis opponent for league players.
