I am tempted, but no intercept.  btw if you post the combat move (rather than just sending the file) then I won’t have to wait until I get home from work to look at what you did, so I may be able to respond a little faster on scramble/intercept questions.

I accidently hit “remain” when I meant to retreat, so I redid the Chinese move to reflect that.  The battle was in Shensi where I attacked with 2 infantry and the fighter against your one infantry, after I last both infantry I meant to retreat, but accidently hit remain and the fighter was killed as well.  If you object to me editing it back in you can edit it out.

On the subject of advise, see comments I posted at end of our other game.

Scramble all 4 fighters into sz 109 (to help the destroyer fight the sub).

I noticed that the tac bomber in Poland is not participating in any attacks (i.e. France or Yugo), was that an oversight?

In both our games the American Pacific fleet got crushed in the Caroline Islands.  That location is a death trap, there are just too many ways to get there and with the way carriers can reposition to pick up planes, Japan can concentrate alot of fire power there even when it does not look like it.
In this game you could have really messed with my plans by having the Russians in Moscow fall back and link up with the units coming in from Siberia instead of standing and fighting.  Granted you lose Moscow, but that was going to happen anyway, this way you would have had this huge army running around in central asia, which meant the bulk of the German army would have had to stay their too, giving the UK more time to fortify Cairo.
When I was messing around with Triplea playing against myself, I found that the only way to stop the G1 onslaught from taking Moscow was to shuttle planes in from Scotland and up from Persia (nice place for an IC, imho).
I tend to be too conservative when I play the allies, so seeing your more agressive free wheeling style was helpful for me to see, I hope I learned something for our next game.

Good luck! (or average luck for both of us) in the next game

It’s bad enough that I did such a bad job of positioning my units, but not hitting a single bomber really added to the pain

Okay, since you are the Axis I will let you start the thread.  Do you like any observations about the last game?

I am okay with either of those (as long as the tank is in Japan).  Do you want to start this new game or finish out the old one?

No intercept.  Btw I see that I forgot to move the fighter that participated in the attack in sz 116 back to carrier in 106, can you edit that back in.  Feel to redo any aspect of the German move if that would effect anything you did.

IPC for the axis?  What do you have in mind?

Do you want to keep playing this game?  If not, I would like to try a game with the allies (so far I am undefeated with the axis, 3 games, and have yet to win a game with the allies, 3 losses and 1 tie, a face to face game).
