Sure, take your time with it. I’m out on vacation, so probably can’t make a move for another 10 days or so anyways.

I don’t see how you can reclaim a victory city now.

@simon33 No way to do it. Well done, nicely played, congratulations!
Maybe I should have surrendered 2 rounds earlier, but with my armies near Berlin on both sides, I was hoping I can somehow squeeze in there. It was a futile hope. Italians were way too strong and once UK felt to income of 20, this was impossible, even if I somehow managed to hold on Japan for a round or 2 more.
You have played very well on holding Western allies, especially in Gibraltar and in Denmark. Japan was very strong from the beginning, and without focusing more there, I could not do anything to slow it down. I was hoping Soviet pressure on Manchuria can hold you at taking India, but no… As said earlier, maybe I should have focused on one goal and not going for Scandinavia in addition to Normandy?
What do you think?
It was fun nevertheless, I think I had a chance for short period…

I think the winning move was when I took Egypt. You should have made sure that wasn’t possible, even if it cost the Middle East. I thought you could have attacked my stack of troops in Alexandria but perhaps I am wrong about that. Either way, you needed to consolidate in Egypt given that was where you had built your IC. I lost a game against Axis-Dominion in a similar way (although that was where Italy had taken Egypt).
Another thing I thought was a step to victory in the Pacific was when I got my Japanese troops between your Chinese stack and India. It can be better to lose the stack and at least inflict casualties.
The first step to victory was to take out the Siberians but I don’t think you could have stopped that.
You kept a lot of pressure on Germany but it was at the expense of USN in the Pacific. Last turn you could have put in a blocker but it would have only delayed the inevitable.

Thanks for the game.
