Well I almost fell into your trap of liberating the UK but saw you’d have a 92% chance of taking it againo - and all our honest taxpayers’ money!
Bombing run on Rome, scrambling?

Every turn, Japan has a distracting target to work on…
Well played for delaying Japan, but I think that sending the US fleet at the bottom of the Philippine sea was a big price to pay.

Paksos, I declare you expelled from Europe! :-D
The rebuilding of the Luftwaffe must continue!
-
I’ve been reviewing both games Paksos…
Do you want a formal debrief after the games? Things to look for, things to try differently?
That said, I have to say that I learned something very interesting from watching your play. Specifically how you have held Leningrad in our game, and probably will for another 2 turns… a very interesting ploy indeed!
-
I did like how Paksos made use of the Siberian troops in our game. I really did not want China to push forward while seeing the Russians come back in Amur. That was a good move and could work against a Japanese player with less experience.
Paksos needs to tweak his UK play a bit. If you play as aggressive with UK in face of a player that is ready for Sealion, Russia has gotta be more aggressive.
As America, don’t focus on transports and troops until you can adequately protect them.
