L23/24 P2V Mainah (X+9) v mikawagunichi (L)

@mikawagunichi
In BM4, Russia makes a lot less money, and sees its income steady reducing fairly rapidly. In that version, trading 7 Russian planes, early, for the Italian fleet with a Persian factory that is threatened and a 30ipc Italy would, in my estimation, be a slight net negative in the overall allied position.

But P2V is a very different game. I have no reference to look at to have an informed opinion on the overall strategic situation in this game.

As you say, we will find out as it plays out.

Work just got real busy this week. Will try to get to this game some time over the weekend.
Sorry about the delay

@mainah No problem.

Well - I got caught up on 3 games tonight.

But yours - well - somehow I am really frustrated and really impressed how you tied up the pac so fast, both feelings at the same time. Japan never got going, and seems unlikely to ever in this game. This map, and the new scrambling options, is shown in all its beauty and ugliness right now.

But I must make the most of it to give Germany a chance. Need some time to ponder, if you don’t mind.

@mainah I think you’re playing pretty well and have a good chance to win, but no problem take more time if you need it.
