Yes, FWA. No sense going east and taking the French territory of FEA so that the Brits can quickly claim it well into the future.

Well, I guess that is it – I resign! I am already in a sub on my way to Argentina! That was a furious final. I had no real chance in the battles of London and Moscow but wanted to see the action, and the British and Russians defended solidly.
Very well played, Lennard! And when the US go 100% all in against Japan, and Germany still doesn’t manage to capture Moscow, it doesn’t deserve to win.
What is worrying me is that I have played quite a few games now where Japan was done relatively early, because I do not manage to deal with 3o+ allied subs in the Pacific. What is your recipe against this threat?
And I should be more decisive when it comes to Moscow/Persia. I think it makes sense to go straight and powerful against Persia as soon as Moscow is encircled but cannot be taken. These bonus points are too precious. At least I managed to keep Norway.
I am looking forward to our next match. I will now do the Playoffs, but we should try to have our third match in spring – what do you say?
Thank you for the game and good luck with your next matches! I will post the result – it is the very first result post for 2023 😉

@martin Thanks for the games Martin, I’m sure we will have a chance to have more this year.
My feeling is that Germany capturing Moscow is a priority.
I’d study some games by strong players to see what they do with Japan who can be very formidable.
I’ve given up on Germany going to Persia instead of Moscow but stronger players might be able to pull it off.
Good luck in the playoffs!
