It doesn’t bother me too much to trade control of one of the Money Islands for a full turn in exchange for 3 destroyers, a transport and 2 infantry.  Depending on the dice I think I come out significantly ahead.

Sorry about missing the details of the Japanese moves; I clicked to the American turn.  There were many small battles but nothing surprising.  My build was 4 infantry, 2 art, a sub, and some fighters.

The Axis is now out-earning the Allies.

Those Russians in Siberia have been annoying since I have been too focused on defeating China.  With the loss of those forces, Japan is finally free to focus on their next target.  It is now just a matter of time for the Axis to win.

Yeah, next round will be rough for the Allies.  I probably will go after Tambov to eliminate the ongoing threat of Russia, and I think that combined Allied fleet at the Carolines is getting wrecked.  I see it as a +161 TUV swing if the units in my battle calc are right.  I can get 23 planes to that sea zone.  With the massive air forces on both sides of the boards it just is a matter of time before the scattered Allies have their forces destroyed.

If you wanted to try an Allies +60 game, I would be willing to give it a try.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

With TripleA people could just do non-combat moves and at the end of the full round 1, edit everybody to have the original starting PUs.  Anyway, I think that I would prefer a plain Allies +60 game than trying out more house rules since you can never get people to agree to the same set.  I am sure that I will struggle for the opening rounds and would have to look for Allied mistakes to make up for the massive amount of additional starting forces.

That +80 battle in Tambov means that Moscow should fall next round unless I get distracted elsewhere.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

It was a good game to learn on.  I still gain so much when I play against the better League guys.

What would you like for a +60 Allied bid?
