Quick question, can you see a path to victory (getting to 14 VC) for either side?

I'll be honest, I can't.  But I wanted to get your opinion, no need for strategy or details, just if you can ever see this game ending.

I even took a screen shot of the map to look at while I'm at work.  lol!
I decided to do a unit count too.

Axis
Inf - 557
Rt - 34
Arm - 191
Ftr - 35
Bom - 5

Total - 821 (3162 IPC)

Allies

Inf - 418
Rt - 26
Arm - 81
Ftr - 50
Bom - 1

Total - 576 (2275 IPC)

Huge land unit lead for the Axis.  But if you mix in the ships it gets closer:

Trn - 45
Sub - 5
DD - 8
CA - 1
AC - 12
BB - 4

Total 75 (669 IPC)

Overall:
Axis Units - 821 for 3162
Allied Units - 651 for 2944

[LuckyLindy]

Yes I see a path to victory.  It may not be until 2013, 100 or so rounds from now.   

Cheers

Yes I see a path to victory. 

Wow, you have good eyes then.   

It may not be until 2013, 100 or so rounds from now.   

No kidding.   

I'm hoping to get G up tonight, but if not, it probably won't be till Sunday then.
