Only transport 2 armor to Bry, and leave 2 infantry on the home islands to protect against a last ditch desperation effort.
Also, bomber from 57 lands on Japan.

Since you haven’t posted anything -
I’m going to go even more conservative.  Don’t land anything at all on Bry - keep it all on the home islands.
Even if you’ve started planning the UK move, this has no bearing on their turn.  Plus, you’ve made more late adjustments (more than a half hour after posting) than I have this game, so this should be acceptable.

Not aimed at you, DD, but to explain my decision here (about 8-10 people are watching our game, apparently) before the dice tumble:
This is a 41% shot on Moscow.  Obviously, I would be happy to capture Moscow, but I think as long as I can eliminate all ground units (52% chance) it will be a success for the Axis.  Especially if I can keep my bombers.  Or, I might get cold feet after the first round, in which case I may have given up a differential of about 8 infantry.  But with all 3 axis powers having a decent presence near Moscow, I think going round by round is a good move here, since there are only 4 UK fighters there right now, and a lot of the Russian ground forces are away.  I realize by these facts, that Dutchman is prepared for me to attack Moscow, but I think it’s the move to make (obviously, or I wouldn’t do it).  Plus, we are going to be the last round 2 game to finish, and I really don’t have the patience.
One more look at it before I roll dice….
