@amon-sul Thank you. Good game. I applaud you trying out some new strategies. They gave me a hard time. I agree it is hard for the UK navy in the Indian Ocean to compete with the larger Japanese navy. But, if you had coupled that with pressure from the US navy, rather than the unit shuck to Soviet Far East, that might have been a powerful combination.
