Let me put it this way :wink:
1. Russia stretches from Poland to the Far East
2. Chinese are building 2 men a turn
3. Germany/Italy reduced to trading Cze and NWE, and now giving up France
4. America starting to go Pacific
5. Japan’s boundaries shrinking for 2-3 turns in a row (Africa notwithstanding)These are all very powerful indicators of an Allied win. It’s only a matter of time, and I’m in no hurry, because to rush is to take unnecessary chances. I’ve been doing SBR’s for the fun of it, because even if I get shot down like crazy (as I have), there is still no way I can lose this game.
I wouldn’t say anything if you didn’t. :-)

Forgot something
6. Russia has a destroyer and an aircraft carrierEnough said. :-D

Bah, likely right.
This game will just always stand as a reminder to me–KGF should always mean Japan KRF. Japanese boots in America, as tempting as it always is, are almost always more useful in NRussia or China.

Yeah like I said, in far fewer words, you are up. And if you do take this one we will be 1-1 against each other w/two allied wins. I guess I can take some solace away from this by the fact that my allied win against you came on T8 or 9 and you seem to need 18 -19 turns to take me down? :-P
I think I might have been a bit conservative with Germany. Should have bought a IC for JPN sooner and purchased more DD’s for JPN in pacific. Perhaps I was overly aggressive (spread too thin) w/JPN when the Russo/brit stack closed in on BUL/POL and I felt the need to rush towards MOS. Perhaps the loss of so many JPN inf early affected things too?
And the ITA navy purchases never seem to help….
I don’t think all is lost however…The game doesn’t end when R holds the big NO. I may have a trick up my sleeve, perhaps I can get in a position where the dice gods can help?

Very nice defense in France…. America might have a shot at it now?

Well, congratulations to you, too. Can’t you give a guy credit when he plays well? Don’t make me recount all the times you got very lucky in the first game, including the disastrous G1 attack on Z2. :roll:
