@axis-dominion What a bummer, the battle was only ad 44% odds or so. Japan’s empire in shatters, both Anzac planes survived.

Another stupid blunder by me in the 2nd game between us.

didn’t look too good after the Americans underperformed, but boy those Anzies sure do know how to fight, at least in our match here :)

yah it’s definitely a lot bolder and riskier than my normal style, but then again, one must be that way as allies I think especially against the world’s greatest and yet undefeated axis force!

my logic was also, what maximum punch could I do with what little I had there, and seeing you spread yourself a bit trying to guard everything perfectly, seemed like an opening I should take… especially since those units were nonessential sitting more in the periphery, but with the potential to really help what is essential, which is india and china

I will hang up for a while but I guess it is only a matter of time until Japan will collapse now.

OR maybe I can push harder on Europe now!

Boy, playing Japan is such a misery this game from the start.
First, I did not dare to walk into Hunnan J2 (which I probably should’ve), so the Chinese get extra arty
Second the snake eyes
Third, the Java blunder

The only good thing is that I can play rather reckless from here:D

a reckless jdow, never seen one of those before, should be interesting to see. and scary!

Hi AD, I was wondering whether you allow a very late edit. I just realized I edited a mech away from Poland last turn to put it to Denmark. Which I think was not even legal. I should have taken a mech from WGR. The only difference would have been.
Instead of 2 mech at Germany, I should have 1 at Poland and 1 at Germany.
Would this ok with you?

sure, shouldn’t be a problem, go for it
