Me and @mikawagunichi have played quite a bit with different J1 approaches. Eager to see how this plays out! 😎

@Stucifer

Just realized that I forgot to move the Japanese infantry in Dzavhan to the safety of Yakut.

@wizmark Thanks for the game! Hope you had fun!

I really enjoyed grappling with how to handle the ANZAC crush and then the surprise Caribbean invasion. 😅🤓

The group I often talk A&A with is pretty torn on pushing hard for ANZAC vs focusing on the China-Burma front and pushing for India. And we’ve found the Mediterranean in BM & PTV is just so pivotal…Pretty big income boosts taking a couple islands, really. Starting to feel like most games are won or lost in the Med.
