G40-02 Ksmckay (Axis -18) vs Karl7 (Allies)

[Karl7]

Very interesting, the game is still in flux I think.  Although, I think I fumbled on the middle east.  I’d hate to see Italy take egypt, build a factory and then start buggering the USSR from the south… ag!

every time I play this game its different.  So many things can happen and hard to really figure out a cohesive plan sometimes.  Too many possibilities and the game takes longer so it takes even longer to learn compared to 41’

Pretty much a flawless turn there for Japan.  I usually expect to get unlucky in Sze, never had that happen before.

Defense has been lacking this game save for one regiment in Syria.

If you want to move France after Italy and proceed to Germany, go ahead.  Italy’s moves will have no bearing on France’s moves, which are:
