Result posted. When you get back I will probably be interested in a rematch. Was a fun game but I think I made some mistakes due to being out of practice. Guess I’ve already said that.

USA Scrambles.tsvg SZ 35, do you scramble, choice of Suicide attack and do you intercept bombing raid in W.Germany? I will go round by round sor the sea battle.
-
Bummer. Was a miscue that I used too many planes for Kwangtung. Dreamed you wouldn’t take advantage.
Anyway, no intercept in W Germany, full scramble in the Philippines. One kami on each DD, 2 on one Cru, 1 on the other.
That is even worse than I thought.

@simon33 I had no choice, probably the only time I had a chance on your navy, could not risk another attempt for Japan to take the money islands again. I was so sure you would have put your navy in a safe place or block me with dds! UK 10.tsvg

I suspect that is going to be the game. IIRC I did think about putting down a blocker but I needed 3DDs for that and I only had 2 that I hadn’t used in combat. Urgh. And leaving FIC exposed was not good.

@simon33 France 10.tsvg I am sure glad China was able to hit in Yunnan; often 2X1 vs 1X2 ends up winning! Maybe you could have gone to sz 42 ( Java ) and block with 2 dds or go to sz 6 and garrison your navy with your buys, I really think you did not have to send planes at all in Kwantung, you had overwhelming odds no matter what, but I get it why you stuck to sz 35. Attacking sz 35 was a huge risk especially with those Kamis, almost ended in a disaster for USA, but I had a 1-2-3 punch just in case.
