I assumed no intercept as it wouldn’t have effected the bombing (and the odds would favour me) but if you wanted to gamble on that, we could use game dice.

GG, farmboy! I totally misplayed the Russians at the end – didn’t realize the odds would be so against me until it was too late. Still tweaking some of this. :)

Thanks for the game. Always fun to play good players.

@DizzKneeLand33 thanks! It was a fun game. And your allied bomber strategy was quite an interesting and challenging one to play against. One tentative suggestion is that if you spent a bit more on US Navy in the Pacific so that they could grab islands, and on having some presence in the Atlantic, I think this might have been more dangerous.
