Yeah. I tried a similar move once in the old version of the game. I didn’t like it. I found I had to use most of Japan to keep the US busy, while not really doing anything other then, but I probably used the move poorly.

No scramble :P. I take my chances on land.

@Shin:

Some allies can.  The USA can’t take Dutch TTs unless they are taking them back from Japan.  THat’s a special case.

Just the way the game works.  And you forget, there is a way to get use of those French TTs - liberate France!

Really? What happens now when you liberate France? Take your time :P

Allies can annex TTs belonging to the dutch in the Pacific. So it makes sense that the allies can also annex TT’s hold by France after the capital falls. This would also mean that any TT with UK troops in it, would automatically become UK, but it at the very least will allow for a way to use those TT’s belonging to France after the capital is gone. Otherwise the only way to actually reuse those TT’s would be to allow the Axis to take them first (which is a horrendous idea).

It is best if you do it as I don’t have the savefile yet. :D. If you can send it to my email as well. Then I can use it when I am playing with Axis.

Just noticed we aren’t using the correct setup :lol:

@Shin:

Scrambles?

No. Are there players who would scramble in this situation?

@Shin:

I’m inclined to agree.  This was a clear Axis win.

Switch then?  Go ahead and set it up and PM me the thread so I can give you my scramble orders.

No a restart with me as allies again. I made some horrible mistakes with the allies. So I would rather try again before switching. Also this was hardly ever a true game to begin with (given the things that went wrong and all that).

Let’s just restart. There is no point in playing this game anymore.
