Oh I am wondering if I am doomed in this game already.
Certainly anything can happen with the dice, but the odds are looking a bit long.
My bid is 2 inf in Egypt, 1 inf in Belorussia.

I had a lucky round with my sub but got greedy. I should’ve submerged. At least it makes things a little easier for UK now.

You can hit the game options tab on the left.
I don’t know when you have to do it, but I hit new PBEM game first, entered in our info, then hit the game options button before hitting play.
It list the countries with bid amount at the bottom and you can just enter in the ipc value. (this game was 3 for Russia, 6 for UK).
Then once you hit play it’ll go to Russia and you “buy” whatever and hit okay, then it allows you to place on the appropriate territory, then it moves to UK, etc.

Bad rolls is causing the TUV gap to widen and next turn is going to be a slaughter on my new ships further exacerbating the issue.
So if you take out all of those ships, leaving yourself with a bomber that is a 17 point swing in TUV and effectively stopping the UK from doing anything. I’m not counting on good rolls so you might have an early victory. One thing I don’t like about this game is that when the TUV gap gets wide enough, there is really no use in continuing to play.

Which ships?
Are you talking about a G2 attack on Sz 2 (Ca, ftr, bom vs. trn, dd, ac, ftr)?
That attack is preventable. You’ll need a US ftr to land on the AC but you can sure up the odds and prevent it.
I wouldn’t worry about TUV too early, the Allies tend to take a pounding in Rd 1-2 in most games. But you definitely have to be sound. It took me forever to finally figure out my Allied strategies.
I certainly caught some luck to make matters a little worse for you, but the dice gods can always flip things around.
–----
On a strategy note, I tend to overbuy ships for the UK early.  I just hate worrying about the German air, plus is easy for them to buy an extra ftr here or there, so I’ll typically buy 2 capital ships on UK 1 or at least another 1-2 dd for fodder.  I like 1 AC, 1 bb + dd (or trn instead if safe) or 2 ac + other ships (if I intend on bringing over 2 us ftrs).  AC + 2-3 dds usually works too.
It just depends on how you plan on tackling the Axis.
Yeah, an extra destroyer instead of a transport would have helped here.
