@aagamerz13 Yeah, I realized that. I just wanted to post the Soviet moves before the US turn as I had already set up the US turn before I remembered to decide on the Soviet moves.

@aagamerz13 Good game. Good luck in the finals. I’'d like a rematch.

[farmboy]

@aagamerz13 Thanks for the game! That was very close. I haven’t dealt with a G2/J4 before and I expected that the late Japan DOW would work in my favour. But you came very close to taking it in the early rounds. I think you had a little dice luck in the early game (although that came after a tougher G1) but then the dice favoured me later. Even with the dice though, I think you might have been able to hold on for a victory if you had built land units to deny landings on the continent rather than carriers to contest the Atlantic.

[aagamerz13]

@farmboy yes was a fun game. Saw some adjustments to try for axis.
