I am kind of glad I don’t have to play tug of war with that Russian stack… I move up, don’t bring my air. Russia brings his air. I bring my air or I move back. I have seen games where the two armies end up pushing and pulling each other around.

[Cow]

My fighters were landed in funny spaces. I was trying to bait you from killing malaya or kwangtung and hoping to dice you.

I was feeling desperate like I was losing hard, but right now… now that I look at the board, I am not in that bad of a spot.

2 of the anhwe fighters went from hunan to shensi, 2 move left. 1 went from hunnan kwangtung, 2 move left.

[Cow]

I moved the anhwe fighters, nothing else changed.

I am seeing why people don’t like going to war with Russia unless they are doing some sort of, G6 attack on Russia strategy. Japan is all scatter brained.

I was a little surprised you dowed me last turn, I was thinking you wanted USA combat, because of how many islands I would have to defend.

[Cow]

In retrospect, Japan going to war with Russia, was a bad idea. It is going to take me forever to crack that china stack and uk pacific. oh god.

[boldfresh]

how you are nuts truly nutso nutso nutsumundo

[Cow]

some strategies only work if you are nuts.

[Jeff28]

I calced it without the bombers

[Cow]

Oh wow… yeah the bombers change the results to 10 units left average instead of 6 or something.

[Cow]

oh nvm bombers made it average 4 ish to 10 and the % of winning to 90%+ range instead of dicey.

[Cow]

YIKES, I thought you were forcing me to move up so you could push china up more.
