[Omega1759]

102 IPCs, nice!  :-D

India’s next

[Paksos]

Yeah realised my error that I should have abandoned Sydney and retaken it next turn! Pffffffff

[Omega1759]

I would take it twice then. :-D

[Omega1759]

Congrats on Wimbledon

[Paksos]

Woop woop!

[Gargantua]

Hmm… whats going on in this game?  (Dloads)

[Gargantua]

Great conquest of Australia!

Allies are doomed.  There is now way to recover the pacific in time!  2 turns remain at best!  :(

As for Europe… would be interesting if that was a stand alone fight…  Russians have a good hold.  But the Germans have some tricks!

Be interesting to see if Japan can pull it off my J10!!

You were saying that my Japan was terrible like 2 posts ago. :-D

There might be a way to defend India with some Russian units. I’ve just been focused on expanding with Japan without considering the VC count too much.

[Gargantua]

Sarcasm gets lost over the internet. :P

I just wanted to bust your chops a bit. :P

I’m thinking of attacking Neutrals in my game, just for the hell of it.  Seeing how many I can capture before a round 10 victory party!

Paksos has been an incredibly honorable, and resourceful nemesis, despite the deficit.  It’s nice to see a player who’s consistent like that, and has a sense of honor!

[Paksos]

Better to die on your feet than to live on your knees!

:-D

Algeria was a dumb move which I usually wouldn’t have done - but as Japan has this in the bag anyhow I thought I’d see whether some of my African troops could be heroes!  :-D

My invincible Italian bomber is dead!

[Omega1759]

I don’t see anything out there that Anzac/France can do that would influence Germany’s choices. If anything, playing Germany first would give you an advantage. I might post Germany later tonight if you don’t play Anzac/France (Anzac/France should be quick, right? :-D).

I don’t like losing 2 fighters and a destroyer, but it was well worth it.

Note the trick of building carriers to extend the range of my fighters.

Another US navy goes to the bottom of the sea… :-D

Looks like there is a new Pacific navy I must deal with, now!
