@Boldfresh:
problem is, i don’t know a much better strategy to come at japan than we employed. i know it could be better, but i don’t know if it could be ENOUGH better to reach a tipping point in the pacific early enough. just some thoughts, please feel free to enlighten me.
I of course am far away from having an answer on that but as we discussed yesterday I was wondering if a KFJ could be faster and more painful for Japan if directed from Caroline Islands with constantly threatening sz6 but also harass the money islands. This could imo also give Anzac more chances to have an impact.
However the sz6 containment of course gave the option to get the Russians into play which was also annoying, but maybe not annoying enough than losing the money islands, who knows^^
Plus: In case Japan goes a lot of air and not so much fleet, more subs could be an answer.
But as usual the devil lies in the detail and any approach stands and falls by the execution.
We did not even discuss yet the fall of India and if that was inevitable and how the game would have gone with India in the game for longer.
